    No, the funny thing is that you tacitly admitted your own hypocrisy when you tried to claim equivalency between Obama letting something expire and Reagan actively signing a bill that largely cancelled out his previous tax cut. THAT's funny.

    I didn't set the metric. I was referring to CNN's article which discusses tax revenue relative to GDP. It was slightly higher than the 40 year average. But the deficit was higher. YAY, "fiscal conservatism." I'm sure all that defense spending in no way helped the economy. Because government is antithetical to any growth, right?

    did you actually read the articles you posted? he cancelled FUTURE tax cuts. meaning if the current rate was X in the future it was going to be X-Y. instead it stayed at X. that's not a tax increase buddy.

    though I enjoy you attempting to move the goalposts and change the argument.

    I said "future tax cuts" in posts you have quoted and responded to. That was what I said. You've been arguing this whole time without reading what I said? And now accuse me of changing the argument?

    There's no point in discussing things like this with you because you don't read.

    jesus Christ. for the second time. that ridiculous article used average meaning that Reagan was credited with carters tax structure. Tax revenues relative to GDP dropped from 19.5% to 18% during Reagan's presidency. and rose from 18 to 19.5 during carters. and for the 50th time the vast majority of the increase in spending happened AFTER the economy recovered.

    The increase in deficit spending happened after the economy recovered. So what? Are you saying their forecasts for growth were woefully inaccurate, or they just didn't care about deficit spending?

    Should have said tax revenue.


    You still haven't addressed about 3 or 4 things now where you've said untrue things.

    what? no. i'm saying you giving credit to increased govt spending as the reason the economy dramatically recovered holds no water.

    jesus. I've been telling you for years how his tax cuts increased tax revenue.

    like what? or do you mean things you think are untrue because you don't understand this stuff.
