David Stockman explained lots of it and especially the why.. the why of it all./——/ Reagan didn’t raise taxes the way you imply. Congress had to roll back some tax cuts because they were too steep. The end results were lower taxes across the board. But you keep spreading your distortionsidiot question ..
people take deductions made available by our tax laws - if certain taxes are raised people will still have lawful deductions and will take them.
look how many times Reagan raised taxes after he threw RW morons a tax reduction bone to keep the busy AND stupid.
The 1980s tax increases are less well-known, in part because they didn't involve increases in individual income tax rates. The biggest, the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982, increased revenue mainly by tightening up rules on depreciation, leasing, contract accounting and investment tax credits. The Social Security Amendments of 1983 sped up planned increases in payroll tax rates, among other things. The Deficit Reduction Act of 1984 changed rules on interest exclusions, income averaging and such. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1987 closed a few loopholes and extended a telephone excise tax. And the Tax Reform Act of 1986, while it lowered the top individual income tax rate to 28 percent from 50 percent, contained enough offsetting changes that, for the first two years after enactment, it raised tax revenue.
and so it goes .....

technically, they don't want a middle class. they want dependents and rich. that's all they want. Why else complain about crumbs?I don't know why the idiot Moon Bats bitch about taxes.
If they don't want lower taxes then all they have to do is send more money to the government. They don't have to participate if they don't want to.
Of course being the greedy little shitheads that they are they want lower taxes for themselves and higher taxes for other people.
so, just a real quick question, if you think the taxes were the same, would there still be a deficit? Cause you know there was before he took office. Right? you knew that?Not in the long run.Historically, the rich rarely do the right thing.
they always do the right thing .... FOR THEMSELVES.
an example of in the long run would be Trumps Trillion dollar deficit never paying for the interest much less the debt .. in fact over the next 20 years the tax cuts alone add trillions more to the debt picture.
idiot question ..
people take deductions made available by our tax laws - if certain taxes are raised people will still have lawful deductions and will take them.
look how many times Reagan raised taxes after he threw RW morons a tax reduction bone to keep the busy AND stupid.
The idea is they don't mind someone else being required to pay more. They do not willingly pay more themselves.
Why do you think they yell and scream that the amount of salt tax is such a big deal to those living in liberal paradise?
D'oh!! They ask that people with more pay more, and that includes themselves. They are asking to change the tax code to reflect that
stop lying and misrepresenting things. You're not the president
why? why would they take deductions that's like a tax cut. hmmmmm you make no sense.idiot question ..

it's voluntary, they can donate all they want. It's an open basket waiting for money to fall in.The idea is they don't mind someone else being required to pay more. They do not willingly pay more themselves.

I don't know what Guber? I do know that there was a deficit before the tax cuts. You can't even agree on that. what a useless debater you are.so, just a real quick question, if you think the taxes were the same, would there still be a deficit?

you dont know this Gomer -
All told, the tax increases Reagan approved ended up canceling out much of the reduction in tax revenue that resulted from his 1981 legislation.
Annual federal tax receipts during his presidency averaged 18.2% of GDP, a smidge below the average under President Carter -- and a smidge above the 40-year average today.
FACT.
to raise enough revenue, any meaningful revenue, getting the wealthy to pay a fair share .. the tax code would need to be adjusted. stop lyingit's voluntary, they can donate all they want.

No one claims to have the magic number, but we all know the wealthy do not pay as much of a share of wealth as regular citizens doagain, define fair share. I've been asking you all that question for five years and still no one answers it, but uses the phrase all the time.
All the rich libs can pay all they want anytime they want. why don't they?
