Any continuous curve where f(x1)=0 and f(x2)=0 has at least one maximum for f(x) between x1 and x2.

Its mathematically provable. California and Zero will find out the hard way that higher tax rates do not necessarily produce higher revenue. Unfortunately americans hitched their wagon to those who are bad at math.

For the case where 2+2=4 I believe you are correct. But, in our current 0boma economic model you have to consider the case of large values of 2 where 2+2 can something other than 4.
