Cutting Taxes on the wealthiest DOES NOT GROW THE ECONOMY! A suppressed report

The Republicans made sure this report was ignored, because it shows that the present meme of Cut
Taxes for the Wealthy has not historically grown the economy.


“The reduction in the top tax rates appears to be uncorrelated with saving, investment and productivity growth. The top tax rates appear to have little or no relation to the size of the economic pie. However, the top tax rate reductions appear to be associated with the increasing concentration of income at the top of the income distribution.”
These three sentences do nothing less than blow apart the central tenet of modern conservative economic theory, confirming that lowering tax rates on the wealthy does nothing to grow the economy while doing a great deal to concentrate more wealth in the pockets of those at the very top of the income chain.
