(...) I give your weak attempt at humor a 2.5 out of 5 (whoopie-cushions). As for the study, I was under the impression that the whole debate WRT supply-side economics was all but over.

For one thing calling Australia a low tax country is a little odd considering that the top rate was about 50% until very recently. (...) (20 years ago, 16-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, FTX)
