Once again, Bush proves that lower tax rates result in higher tax revenues,

AND

that the left isn’t really as interested in tax revenues as they are in CONTROLLING YOUR LIFE.

Very true. If they wanted more revenues, lower the taxes more. It’s not the money, it’s the “control” aspect as you mentioned. Go to a flat tax of 7% and they couldn’t spend all that money.....well....they could I guess. The only problem I see with the flat tax is that Congress would want at least 15% to take more of your money.

Milton Friedman observed that if reducing tax rates makes revenues increase, you haven’t cut rates enough.
