Can you increase tax revenues by cutting tax rates?

WHERE IS ECONGUY?    / thateconguy   WHO IS ECONGUY? I'm a professor of Economics at St. Michael's College in Vermont: http://www.smcvt.edu HAVE A QUESTION? Email EconGuy: [email protected] ______________________________________________________ Can the government actually increase tax revenues by cutting tax rates? A lot of politicians - and even some economists - seem to think so. The idea is that the tax cut will spur so much economic growth that tax revenues increase despite the lower rate. It's an idea known to economists as the Laffer Curve. But is that true? EconGuy looks at the numbers, and then at recent U.S. experience with tax cuts, tax increases, and revenues. ______________________________________________________ CREDITS: Intro Animation: provided free to Econguy by Chris Levinson Intro Music: "Pixelated People" purchased from http://www.freesoundtrackmusic.com PHOTO CREDITS: Reagan: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia...
