What I've said is that there is ample evidence that tax cuts have been shown to help sagging economies while deficit spending hasn't.

What's the difference between tax cuts on a budget in deficit and deficit spending?

"What I've said is that there is ample evidence that tax cuts have been shown to help sagging economies while deficit spending hasn't."

Yes, you've said that.

"And I have proved it by reference to the Depression."

That you haven't done.

"Now, if you have other evidence go for it."

Australia and NZ during the Great Depression. Or, for that matter, the US and Canada during the same.
