Taxing the rich -- then and now

[LeftCoastVoter]

The jobs and expansion were a result of the economic boom thanks to the tech boom.. not as a result of higher taxation... The growth in jobs were in no way because of Clinton's tax increases

The growth in these jobs were indeed in SPITE of Clinton's raises.. not because of them

and the jobs growth and economic expansion happened during a time when taxes increased contrary to the opinion of the GOP. if high taxes really stunt job growth, why oh why did the economy grow so much?

this simple example thoroughly debunks the myth that only low taxes lead to economic growth. point to any time in history when taxes were low and the middle class and economy actually thrived.

And it would have been better with lesser taxation.. as stated, we had gains thanks to the tech bubble IN SPITE OF THE HIGHER TAXES

says who? there is no proof that lower taxes would have led to the same economic boom. when have low taxes done so?

ill help you out, never......
