Michael,

Are you familiar with the principle of degrees of freedom?

There was a great article in Scientific American in 1981 pointing out the fallacy of the Laffer curve, and how the statistical claims of supply siders were rubbish.

If you have a tax cut and 3 tax hikes, and attempt to attribute the behavior of the system exclusively to the tax cut, then you are going to come up with a meaningless conclusion.
