When you cut taxes without reducing spending, where does the shortfall
come from?


You're confusing tax rates with tax revenue. Reagan cut tax rates, tax
revenue then rose, rising tax revenue does lead to deficits.

You were on a roll until you said that rising tax revenues leads to
deficits.That can only happen if you spend more money than you've taken in, and
the difference between the two is the deficit.

Rising tax revenue does not lead to deficits.

Rising tax revenue never leads to deficits.

I said "the following message", not "what appears below."

So, where's "the following message"? There wasn't any....so why were you
referring to it when it obviously didn't exist? You knew it wasn't there.

Your attempts at wiggling out of admitting an error are really pathetic for
someone who's presumably an adult. They don't serve you well, and you ought to
be man enough to admit it when it's as obvious as the nose on your face that you
misspoke or, as you probably would have said if I had done that, that you lied.
