You are - it shows exactly the opposite of what you claim for the years before 2001.
You are a joke. I stated "Would it surprise you that, as a percentage of GDP, tax receipts are at their lowest since 1959 and that they really haven't varied much in the last 60 years?" which is absolutely true. You reply by posting 4 year old stuff.


Of course, we know you're not mistaken at all but just willing to do almost anything to distort and mislead even if it does mean presenting incorrect information.
What incorrect information did I present?

You obviously didn't look at the chart provided which shows exactly the opposite of your claim.

In addition, you seem to have missed the description:

"Total Federal revenues have surged as a share of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) since the mid-1990s. In fact, individual income taxes now take up the largest share of GDP on record—even above World War II levels. "

Or perhaps you'd like us to believe that "... tax receipts keep dropping as a pecent of GDP ... since 1959 and haven't varied much in the last 60 years"? Perhaps with (per you) the % of GDP dropping the President actually got his chart turned upside down?

ROTFLMAO! I think he's a better source that you - and certainly more honest.
