(1) In the long run, we are all dead. Hence why should I personally care if my great-great-great-great-grandchildren are trillionaires?

(2) Show me that reducing the top tax rate from 4% to 3 1/2% will results in in 0.4% faster growth rate. And don't neglect the fact that economic growth is NEVER and never has been a smooth upward curve; rather, it is interrupted by wars, recessions, depressions, and crashes. And losing just one of those wars can throw all your assumptions into cocked hat.

Wrong? I wouldn't be too sure of that.
