Regarding the economy & taxation: america's most successful achievers do pay a higher share of the total tax burden. the top one percent income earners paid 18 percent of the total tax burden in 1981, and paid 25 percent in 1991. the bottom 50 percent of income earners paid only 8 percent of the total tax burden, and paid only 5 percent in 1991. history shows that tax cuts have always resulted in improved economic growth producing more tax revenue in the treasury.

It is easier to start taxes than to stop them. a tax an inch long can easily become a yard long. that has been the history of the income tax. would not the sales tax be likely to have a similar history [in the u.s.]? ... canadian newspapers report that an increase in the sales tax threatens to drive the mackenzie king administration out of office. canada began with a sales tax of 2%.... starting this month the tax is 6%. the burden, in other words, has already been increased 200% ... what the u.s. needs is not new taxes, is not more taxes, but fewer and lower taxes.

If you look at the performance of the zero-income-tax-rate states and the highest-income-tax-rate states, i believe a large amount of their difference is due to taxes. not only is it true of the last decade, but i took these numbers back 50 years. and, there's not one year in the last 50 where the zero-income-tax-rate states have not outperformed the highest-income-tax-rate states.
Zero Believe Years
A tax cut means higher family income and higher business profits and a balanced federal budget....as the national income grows, the federal government will ultimately end up with more revenues. prosperity is the real way to balance our budget. by lowering tax rates, by increasing jobs and income, we can expand tax revenues and finally bring our budget into balance.

When i started criticizing donald trump when he got more popular on the right, one of the most things that i discovered was how many people were mad at me for not living down to their expectations. there are a lot of pundits on the right who think their job is to be a cheerleader for their team. that is not my job. my job is to tell the truth as i see it, and that is gotten a lot of people angry.
