this guy is insane! i say that because his emotions block him from the truth. he was brutally proven wrong by peter schiff back it 2006 and he said during the 2008 and 2009, the economy would be doing great, the housing market would still be better than ever and that wealth would continue to grow for all americans. was he right? no Arthur, you failed at your job during that time, you failed, you made it worse and hurt many people. you should stop doing what your doing, for the safety of america.
@eirefrance: Lowering (certain types of) taxes past of the point of maximum revenue results in economic growth, therefore increasing the size of the overall pie. And I would hope most people would agree with me that it should not be the goal of government to maximize it's revenue.
Laffer made his mistake in 2006, when most people never saw the collapse coming... 2006 happened to be a good year for Bush too - wonder how Laffer could make a mistake right? Funny how Laffer was Reagan's top economic adviser (ur hero Reagan...).
Laughter (sic) totally misread the economic signs, that there would be a market implosion. He condemned anyone who even mentioned that the market reversal would ever occur . . . trust me. Anyone that took laughter's advice is now broke!!! You want to take his advice? Go for it. Youll end up a panhandler. You want to make money? Listen to Peter Schiff . . . he is a real economist.
Laffer guy is such a joke. He truly has no clue what he is talking about.

This guy is a Keynesian and predicted that we would NOT have a recession in 2007-2008. He railed on Schiff and he was wrong.

Fair and Balanced! I'm sure Paul Krugman would get the same soft ball questions on Fox and Friends...
