All I know is this the US economy is growing at rates that have not been seen in 20-30 years, yes that is back to the 1970's&80's not the 1990's(WAY PAST THE 90's), so much for the illusion of the greatest economy is 50 years
In my State Alabama, a little over a year ago the govenor tried to have a huge tax increase passed in a political move that at the time seemed like political suicide. The gov(r) and the state legislature(d) all said there would be MASSIVE state deficets so bad that the state would have to cut services and people, Humans, you know voters, would DIE if we the people did not pass the tax increase. Well in a true cold blooded conservative nature of the people of Alabama we voted down the tax increase by a large margin 60%+ to 40%-. Guess what the economy has turned arround and the state of Alabama is looking at a surplus. All without a single tax increase, just an increase in business done by the people and evil corporations that pay the taxes. MORE Business=MORE taxes, MORE taxes=less business.
