the tax cut lead to increase in revenue, so how could you claim tax cut cause deficit. Its the increase in spending that followed that resulted in the deficit
no matter what these idiots say its what they don’t say that’s important...that our economy was running along just fine until democrats took over the house TWO YEARS before the financial meltdown.....
And to prove your point: Total revenue to the Federal Government in 2001 was $1.99 Trilion. In 2008 it totalled $2.59 Trillion.
