I CONSTANTLY hear about how much the Reagan or the Bush tax cuts "caused the deficit", or how much in "revenue" they cost the government, "having to pay for tax cuts," etc., etc.
If this was true, then show me where the revenue to the FedGov ACTUALLY decreased.
Revenue under Reagan almost DOUBLED in 8 years.
Deficit predictions were constantly being revised downward under Bush 43, in spite of runaway spending.
I'm no accounting wizard, but I do understand "cause and effect". Tax cuts=more revenue. More spending=more deficit.
It's not that hard, unless you're a DUmmie.
