from 2001 up through most of 2005, they were running below 2000.

Its hardly unusual for tax levels to be lower during a recession and in the beginning of a recovery than they where before the recession, that factor may have gone on a little longer in this case but than in 2000 the NASDAQ topped 5000. In such bubble situations you get extra revenue.


Huh? Tim, read this carefully.....there was a bubble in the Nazz, not the economy. The companies that were bubblicious in the Nazz are/were a very small piece of the economy. In 2001 what we were experiencing was a slowdown in the economy from admittedly some very good, hi growth years. It wasn't even clear we would go into recession at that point. Everything in your mind is exaggerated to fit your story......reign your exaggeration please.
