ajm: Why don't you ask Reagan's former Treasury Deputy Secretary? In a recent interview he stated there was NO feedback or revenue return when they reduced taxes. You can also find videos of recent officials under GW's administration giving testimony to Congress; like H. Paulson or Edward Lazear saying the theory has no evidence to support it and when inflationary measures, population increases or per capita is factored in the net longterm increase in revenue is non existant. Finally, look at statements by Al Greenspan. Remember him? Everyne listened when he spoke. Well he claims it's a myth too. All Republicans, all admitting that it is a lie and that they never claimed it to be so. The people who advance this lie are Republican elected officials and the propagandists of the right. Numbers can be made to work for you but only when you use ALL the numbers will you arrive at the correct answer. Look to the experts who worked with the actual numbers and were responsible for the collection of revenue and paying the bills. You guys make up facts to advance your own agenda. Don't ask me to shut up so that you can spread falsehoods. You can always find a link to support your point of view from rightwing think tank propagandists.
