The irony is that as a result in cuts in tax rates on the rich, the tax revenues collected from the rich have gone up. This is just what the Laffer Curve predicts, and it has happened every time the government has cut tax rates on high income earners, from TreasSec Mellon in the 1920s through Kennedy, Reagan, and Bush I and II.
