So why do Democrats keep bringing up Kansas? Because the truth gets in the way of their efforts to kill tax reform. The last time Washington enacted a serious plan like the House proposal was under President Reagan, and it ushered in one of the largest booms in the nation’s history. Economic growth averaged 3.5% from 1981-88.

Democrats see my state as proof that supply-side economics doesn’t work...

Half are mental. The other half knows that tax cuts gets better revenue.

The problem with treating Kansas as a supply side experiment is two fold. First, Kansas invalidated the Laffer curve by failing to control spending. Second, the Kansas economy by itself is not big enough to apply macro benchmarks.

Spending control or the lack of it by government does indeed change supply side into voodoo economics. Yet tax money belongs to us first as earnings. We might was well keep it our selves.

on Kansas’ 2012 tax cuts. Democrats see my state as proof that supply-side economics doesn’t work

Ha...I have a relative who is an economic genius, well at least according to him...

His credentials: he's a liberal. What more do you need ? He never even ran a lemonade stand.

He uses Kansas as his only talking point when ranting against supply side economics model...

Like most liberals he is thin skinned and deranged and after multiple times me embarrassing him with facts like these, he finally unfriended me from Faceboob...

Democrats are always willing to torture the data to get the outcome they want.

Their establishment media is only too willing to push the fantasies as fact.

First, the 2012 tax cuts came during the same year that federal stimulus funds ended. That alone resulted in a 12.5% drop in revenue

Good, government has too much revenue.
