Who are this dope and his tubby buddy, Art Laffer, trying to bamboozle? Revenues were only up because the Fed MASSIVELY balooned the money supply the last year of the Trump presidency, flooding the economy with liquidity, and continued it into the Biden
presidency until the negative CPI effects became too obvious to ignore.

PROPAGANDA FAIL.

There is a recognized positive fiscal effect in reducing tax rates - - at a tax rate level significantly higher than those in effect at the time of the Reagan administration, or now.

Risky Bits v. World-renowned experts and Reagan Administration economic advisors, nahh.

Newsflash, Travel- the 'Laffer Curve' was, first, unoriginal, and, secondly, inapplicable as asserted. That is the general consensus of 'World-renowned experts', as you put it.

But it isn't necessary to rely on the preponderance of informed opinion. Art Laffer's economic policy prescriptions were given a try in the real world:

'Laffer was an economic adviser to Kansas Governor Sam Brownback, who in 2012 zeroed out state tax liability for approximately 330,000 of the top wage earners in the state, called the Kansas experiment, contending it would be a "shot of adrenaline into
the heart of the Kansas economy."[40][41] Laffer was paid $75,000 to advise in the creation of Brownback's tax cut plan, and gave Brownback his full endorsement, stating that what Brownback was doing was "truly revolutionary"[42] and would bring "
enormous prosperity" to Kansas.[41] The state, which had previously had a budget surplus, experienced a budget deficit of about $200 million in 2012. Drastic cuts to state funding for education and infrastructure were implemented to close budget deficits
and the Kansas economy underperformed relative to neighboring states.[43] Brownback's tax overhaul was described in a June 2017 article in The Atlantic as the United States' "most aggressive experiment in conservative economic policy".[44] The drastic
tax cuts had "threatened the viability of schools and infrastructure" in Kansas. A supermajority of lawmakers in the Kansas legislature, both Democrats and Republicans, repealed the tax cut in June 2017, overriding Brownback's veto.'
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Laffer

The inability to disguise the utter failure of these policies in Kansas was a result of the state of Kansas not having the power to expand the money supply of Kansas to artificially create economic activity, thereby generating more tax revenue.

After reviewing that Wikipedia page I will, on the other hand, withdraw my description of Art Laffer as 'tubby'. I met and briefly spoke with him twice during the Reagan administration. That was about 35 years ago, or so, and things change, don't they?

The Laffer curve simply assumes its shape, without justification. Even continuity is assumed, which is a highly dubious assumption.

I thought you wrote 'Laughter Curve.' It's what I do when I see people deluded into believing that tax cuts pay for themselves. Epically after having just seen Trump's tax cuts for the rich boost the national debt higher than Ronald Reagan's and Bush's.

Pick "many" and go with whatever you like.

There is a recognized positive fiscal effect in reducing tax rates - - at a tax rate level significantly higher than those in effect at the time of the Reagan administration, or now.

The Laffer curve simply assumes its shape, without justification. Even continuity is assumed, which is a highly dubious assumption.

Just type the "words" and the truth is obvious ... no assumptions or misunderstandings possible.

Of course there are many assumptions, one of which is that the population as a whole are what they call 'homo economicus', making their decisions rationally. Lots of research indicates otherwise.

Who are this dope and his tubby buddy, Art Laffer, trying to bamboozle? Revenues were only up because the Fed MASSIVELY balooned the money supply the last year of the Trump presidency, flooding the economy with liquidity, and continued it

into the Biden presidency until the negative CPI effects became too obvious to ignore.

PROPAGANDA FAIL.

Umm, fail.

Actually, tax cuts don't have to pay for themselves, because tax cuts aren't "spending
Proposals: tax cuts increase revenue; they "make money" for the Treasury by expanding the "tax base."

A proved fact many times over (see JFK).

Even with Democrat governors of blue states: when they get into serious financial trouble they will cut taxes to get out of it.

Usually, though, as with Massachusetts, for example, they'll (Democrats who dominate the state) "set-up" a Republican RIno to win the governorship, and that "strawman" Republican governor will do the tax cutting; because a Democrat governor "can't be
seen" cutting taxes; Connecticut is another example.

The Democrats do this with the richest of states (California doesn't count; they're beyond control): E

Ever wonder how New York could possibly have Republican governors? Now you know.

If you can print money, you never "run out" ... there are problems,
however, with this solution.

Numbers are interesting ... remember when a coke was a nickle. And coke bottles were valuable.
