I'm Pete du Pont with the National Center for Policy Analysis with a tip the next time your liberal friends fret about a tax cut. And a recent Goldwater Institute study in Arizona shows it in black and white. The overwhelming historical evidence shows that the Kennedy and Reagan tax cuts sparked growth. And the study demonstrates that states without income taxes enjoy a hefty advantage over states that take their citizens' money.
Income taxes discourage production.
When states drop the tax rate by one percent, real per capita personal income growth goes up 3.6 percent. Those are my ideas, and at the NCPA we know ideas can change the world. I'm Pete du Pont. Next time, the free market in print.
