"It brought us out of it and continues to grow, what is wrong with you???" Right. Tax receipts have not reached the pre-cut high after 5+ years. So either a) tax cuts don't really bring in increased revenues. or b) we are still in a recession. Now if it is b), why have we been in a recession so long? I mean, not only have taxes been cut, but the government has been borrowing money at an unprecedented rate, pouring more than $1 billion over and above tax receipts into the economy every day. With that kind of stimulus, the economy should have taken off like a scalded cat from the borrowed money alone. So why isn't it? I am not filled with hate. You, however, are filled with stupidity.
