Democratic Senator Ron Wyden has a plan to make the ultrarich pay.

These are the stupid ideas the Democrats come up with. There are three billionaires in Oregon. Three. If this passes I suspect they will just move.

At the federal level, this would be unconstitutional.

    The article is misstating the Laffer curve but considering it is coming for a left site I am not surprised. The Laffer curve isn’t as simple as cut taxes and revenue will increase.

    It is about finding the right place for taxes to increase the revenue.

    Maybe instead of citing a lefty site, you should actually read what it is.

    It suggests that taxes could be too low or too high to produce maximum revenue and both a 0% income tax rate and a 100% income tax rate generate $0 in receipts.

    It’s why it’s a curve and not a line.
