Left end of the Laffer curve. The government doesn’t collect anything at 0% and at 100% tax rates. The problem is where to place the tax in between.
I like the “starving the beast” comment, but it doesn’t work that way. I think Reagan was hoping to starve the beast with his cuts, but spending never stopped and huge deficits began.
It’s meaningless unless you get rid of the Federal Reserve.
Frankly see my first post in this thread- (Go read “the creature from Jekyll Island”) becuase even if the gov collectd 0% they could still function becuase they would be allowed to “borrow” that money by creating it through selling bonds, and co-operation of the Federal Reserve-they are the poision that is killing America!
