Fascinating. Both conservatives and socialists should be trying to compete to see who could cut taxes the most. Conservatives obviously advocating keeping what you produced, and socialists (assuming tax cuts increased revenues) would be championing them so there would be more money to dole out to their constituents.

I never could understand their position on that. Of course, I can never understand their position on anything.

Socialists aren't interesting in maximizing government revenue. They are interested in maximizing control. This is done by maximizing goverment revenue as a fraction of all revenue. They would be happy to live in a pig sty, so long as they get the spot with the best mud and control who gets how much slop.
