No one still claims that tax cuts raise revenue. That lie exists only on talk radio and fox. Revenue almost always goes up. In fact it's even gone up during most of our recessions. What you stating is the same as saying the sun rose in the east because taxes were cut. It's nonsense.

The idea that two tax cuts were passed when republicans were talking us to war should be enough for you to realize republicans aren't sane, but here you are defending the debt they created by defending tax cuts.

The following numbers are what the Great Recession did to us.

-1,412,688

-1,294,373

-1,299,599
