I'm talking economics, not politics. I'm just pointing out that Clinton's tax increase didn't lead to the economic disaster supply-side Republicans were predicting, quite the opposite, things went very well economically speaking.

BTW: Reagan got smashed in the '82 elections, lost the Senate and 26 seats in the house.

The economy started turning around in '83. Why not credit Democrats?

You also seem to forget that Reagan signed a huge tax increase in 1982 which Jack Kemp called "the largest tax increase ever passed in American history"

Again, the expansion began in 1983. Why not credit the tax increases?

Your theory is just a theory, with little or no evidence to support it.
