Not sure if this is me or not, but I was not trying to imply that the news segment was correct. I specified twice that conservative economists and their supporters often deceptively use the economics concept of the Laffer curve to disingenuously argue for tax cuts, but that did not necessarily make the general concept of the curve invalid. However, seeing as it is almost exclusively used in this context (to argue for regressive tax cuts) in popular economics discourse (as opposed to in academia), it's probably wise to dismiss cable news segments using it.

It's you.

You said the idea of the curve is well-founded. It is not.

The concept that nominal rate may have some effect on collections has little to do with the idea that there's some sort of curve. There's a ton of factors involved.

I know the kind of weird/awkward/alien you're trying to describe, but I had a fun mental picture of an economist coming on and being sort of whimsical and fairylike, whispering hidden truths about the economy while offering suspicious deals backed by economic magic.

Are you writing fanfic about a manic pixie dreameconomist right now ?

This is truly a level of whiteness I was unprepared for. Probably because I am white.
