Bush Tax Cuts: President George W. Bush’s 2003 tax cuts generated a massive increase in federal tax revenue and were followed by 52 consecutive months of economic growth. From 2004 to 2007, federal tax revenue increased by $780 billion

You can force feed these numbers down their throats and they still insist we could have generated "more" revenue by higher taxes. This is probably the thing I despise the most about liberals. They can't fathom the fact that taxpayers will alter their behavior based on tax rates and revenue suffers when the government tries to squeeze more capital from the tax base. It's annoying as hell.

Being from Ohio and a small business owner, the conversation between Joe the plumber and Barack Obama caused me to pull in my horns and prepare for ‘Hurricane Obama’.
I’d have felt foolish if I had prepared in vain. But so far, I’ve been vindicated by current economic conditions.
