So how much of a fraud is Mr. Boaz?
Add in the state and local taxes and its not such a pretty picture.
People around here (and on the radio BTW) need to stop using the terms “raise taxes” and “lower taxes” and start saying “raise tax rates” and “lower tax rates”.
I’ve already seen too many self-contradictory comments on this very thread confusing the two, and thereby confusing anyone who doesn’t understand the magic of increasing revenue flow by lowering tax RATES on income and capital gains. Republican candidates had better take note of this if they want to be able to explain our philosophy.

By cutting taxes.
Does this mean the lefties at Cato will be recommending to Dems that they cut taxes too?
What if the government was still restricted to doing its job and nothing more? Just imagine the wealth that would be available to all.
Curious, though, they were also quite high in the Clinton years (and at other times in the post war era).
Anyone know what's up with that?
The principle that lowering taxes increases revenues should be well established by now. The problem is government spending. I can understand the increased spending in such things as national defense and security; however, the entitlements are going to kill our economy. The liberal utopia of a “nanny state” and the redistribution of wealth is a bigger threat to America than the terrorists.
“growth of spending on everything”
None of their ‘projects’ ever gets completed.
