Surprise! (Not): Trump's budget assumptions based on a lie

[whell]

Oh yeah. Its a lie to suggest that the US could return to a 3% growth rate, even though 3% was the average GDP growth rate during the 40 years between 1966 and 2006.

1966 - 1901 the top tax rate was almost 70%, then it dropped to 50% for awhile, then it dropped further and growth stalled. What does that say? Well, it says that the claim of cutting tax rates for the top 10% will stimulate the economy is pure bullshit.

So you trust Trump over the non-partisan CBO, and most every expert. You're truly stupid.

Actually, it's true. What's laughable (or sad) is your fealty to your Dear Leader.

Yawn. You can keep saying that, but it doesn't make it more accurate.

I'm still trying to figure how an at least a semi-intelligent person such as you isn't repulsed by Trump.
