Time will tell.... (PS - Trend Macrolytics LLC, is the firm the WH hired to analysize it's tax and spending plans --- using the newfangled 'dynamic' method that (Lafer Curve like) assumes as part of the calculus that lowering taxes produces more jobs. The results that came back from the analysis were not what the WH was looking for... but they were the same as the CBO study. Both showed showed more growth and jobs in the near years, but also showed that within 5 to 6 years the ever-increasing drag of the deficit [exascerbated by spending beyond our means, and spending by debt-financing] OVERWHELMED the beneficial effects of lower tax rates, and that after a decade all the good was taken back and more --- with economic growth 1.5% slower at that point then it otherwise would have been.) Nice of you to post a link from this respected econometrics firm. They (& the CBO) have re-validated the old maxim: there is no free lunch! Ya gets what ya pays for.....
