Re: "I wasn't disputing the short run economic hit, but rather that it would be big enough to reduce tax revenue more than the amount of the spending cut...."

Don't recall ever claiming that the reduction in revenue received by Ireland's government since they began their austerity measures (measures similar to Portugal's: spending slashes, tax raises, cuts to future entitlements, etc.) was "larger" then the sum total of the austerity measures.

(You might well be trying to argue a 'point' no one has raised here, Tim....)
