@ladiesofliberty: Economist Arthur Laffer, in a 2018 interview with Patrick Bet-David (Valuetainment), makes a simple case against high taxes on income and profits. His argument: we tax speeding to discourage speeding, and we tax cigarettes to discourage smoking — so what does it say when we tax work and job creation just as heavily? Laffer's point is that taxing productive activity sends the same signal as a "sin tax," and the result is less employment and less output. The clip has been circulating widely as people debate supply-side economics and how tax design shapes work incentives. 🎥 Credit: Valuetainment / Patrick Bet-David

The reason we tax productive people is because politicians can use that to curry favor with voters to get elected. That’s all there is to it.

John :
But that's just it. They don't stop people from speeding and they don't stop people from smoking. That's why taxes do work, to an extent
