Quote: From the most recent report from the Congressional Budget Office: 1. Corporate income tax revenues almost doubled over the last two years, from $189 billion in 2004 to $354 billion in FY 2006. 2. Corporate income tax receipts rose by 27.2% from FY 2005 to FY 2006. 3. Individual income tax revenues increased by 12.6% in 2006 to more than $1 trillion, the highest level in US history. 4. The budget deficit, as a percent of GDP, fell to 1.9% in FY 2006, the lowest level in 4 years, and well below the average of 2.3% since 1965.” Hat tip: Flares into Darkness yargb.blogspot.com americanthinker.com mjperry.blogspot.com
