In 1964, federal taxation as a share of the economy stood at 17.5 percent, while unemployment was at 5.2 percent.

In contrast, the U.S. total tax burden is 30.6 percent....in 2001, the unemployment rate rose, from 4.7 to 5.8 percent

Great point Buddy. Paying MORE in taxes does virtually NOTHING to change employment. So why do it?
