The Laffer curve has nothing to do with two of the three items you mentioned. The fact that some have misused the curve and you have latched on to their definition doesn't make the curve wrong, just means you and others don't understand it. The issue you fail to deal with is revenues. How do you explain away the fact that it is possible to cut taxes and increase revenues by doing so.
Yes, it is theoretically possible to decrease taxes and increase revenues, but in actual practice it has never worked! A lot depends on how much you actually tax people, what happens to the tax money etc. I read up on Laffer a bit, and I thought he made it pretty clear that his curve was theoretical.

AFA "government growth" causing deficits... that's an unjustified assumption! Bring your facts to the table, man and en garde!

Eff the Laffer Curve man, the real meat was all the other stuff!
Especially the "SHHH- just get it done" he had with Ollie North, one of the best fall guyz ever!
