(”the tax breaks JFK trumpeted were the calibrated adjustments of a committed Keynesian, hardly a philosophy embraced by Brown.”)

Can anyone explain this to me?
Can anyone show me how JFK was a committed Keynsian?

JFK was a SUPPLY SIDER even before the term was coined.

“It is a paradoxical truth that tax rates are too high today, and tax revenues are too low, and the best way to balance the budget is to cut taxes now. Only full employment can balance the budget, and tax cuts will pave the way to full employment!”

No. Typical WAcomPost lie.

He wasn’t. It’s just more Left Wing revisionist history
