LH,

I believe that the USA has such economic strength because of it's lack of taxes and aversion to them. At the end of the day it makes it a powerful nation.

So, going by your link and the data presented here:-

Taxes as a Percent of GDP

Year Amount
1930 3.3%
1940 6.8%
1950 14.4%
1960 17.8%
1970 19.0%
1980 18.9%
1990 18.0%
2000 20.4%


It sayes to me vote for Bush.

pearly.
