wow, revenue grew, so did the debt...
Uh, you didn't actually read the OP, did you?
The debt did not grow after the Clinton tax cuts and after the Harding-Coolidge-Mellon tax cuts, and the budget was nearly balanced thanks to the JFK tax cuts.
The debt has only grown after tax cuts when the government has gone on a spending spree and cancelled out the revenue hike. When the government has not done so, the budget has either been balanced or the deficit has been reduced considerably.
Free your mind.
Revenues have only gone down year over year in the last 72 years since the end of WWII, whether we had tax cuts tax hikes or no changes.
Claiming tax cuts increase revenues is like claiming the celebration of Christmas causes two months of cold weather.
You got it bassackwards NY...............I am NOT claiming it causes revenue to rise.....eventhough revenue has risen.
It is YOU people who claim it causes revenue to DROP, and the charts show it hasn't!
Doubt me?
Then show us a government website that shows revenue DROPPED after a federal tax cut. That is all you have to do, show us that table from our government.
You see, we are NOT the ones who have to prove that revenue rises. YOU are the ones that have to prove that revenue falls, because that is the basis for your dislike of the cuts. You claim it is going to cost revenue. OK, prove it! Show us where it did before-)
Cutting taxes DOES cause revenues to decrease, if you look at the tax cuts by themselves. It's a mathematical certainty.
Then explain why that didn't happen under EVERY tax cut since the one done by Coolidge! I know why, and I am certain you know why to and are just trying to muddy the waters. But just to make it fair, I will come back to you with this-------->then you are stating our government is lying to us, and all historical data is false?
If that is your position; that the government is lying, then praytell, why would you want more of it-)
