And I don’t know how you can argue about that since EVERY time we lower tax rates revenues increase.

And, the Democrats and RINO's know it full well. Despite what they constantly spew, taxation from the gubmint's perspective isn't all about raising money. Taxation at this point is far more about controlling behavior. When you control behavior you have power. Power is what they are after, not money. They are admitting it every time they claim they want to raise taxes in order to raise gubmint revenue. Exactly the opposite happens. Now, if we could just get another Conservative to stand up and articulate that point as well as Reagan did......

I is painful beyond endurance to think a fellow citizen would deliberately destroy our country, but I am reluctantly coming to that conclusion.

" Power is what they are after, not money."

EXACTLY. By raising taxes, they take money from the productive and the savers and redistribute it to the politically connected. The formula they follow is vote maximization.

It's simply a monarchy with several ruling families vying for control (Kennedys, Clintons, etc.) and their courtiers vying for favors. We are the peasants.
