FIT revenue + Net Change 1991 697.50 a 1992 715.67 a 18.17 1993 777.01 a 61.34 1994 840.57 a 63.56 1995 916.58 a 76.01 1996 1007.09 a 90.51 1997 1112.65 a 105.56 1998 1227.30 a 114.65 The argument, which is correct, is that coming out of the '91 recession you should have seen relatively robust growth/revenues anyway. Yet, as anyone can see, during 93-94-95 growth was fairly stagnant when compared with the figures from the end of the decade. Then, after the cuts there was a clear uptick -- a substantial one -- resulting from increased LTCGs. It is far more evident when you actually look at the LTCG portion of income tax revenue -- essentially a DOUBLING in the period after the cuts in CG rates, as well as a clear increase in raw dollar totals.
