As soon as the tax cuts were made, July 2001, the deficut appeared; it was not there before, Clinton's budget surplus was. Tax revenues do not increase by cutting the amount, any more than a bill is paid off quicker by cutting the amount of money you pay toward it. It is not tricky, no matter how the plants and operatives try to trick people with it. Statistics from this Administration's Labor Dept., Commerce Dept., IRS, and even its general budget, are known to be faked, and do not even match up to known Census, GAO and CBO figures. Scientists were just testifying before the Waxman Committeee about how they were pressured to lie about global warming, and not even use the phrase. The Departmental statistics from this Administration are worthless. When you reduce taxes, the tax revenues go down--there is a lower income. Don't pretend this actually has to be explained to you. This has been explained over and over, to plants, on this website.

The richest people have had their income taxes cut and cut and cut, so many times since the evil Reagan empire, that we have all had to make up for it with increased payroll taxes, sales and property taxes, and cut programs. "The top 50%" means absolutely nothing, since it includes upper middle class as well as the rich. Bizarre.
