The Bush Tax Cuts should expire as written! LOL
That graph is neat and all, but there really is no way to say with certainty the Bush Tax cuts were that much of a negative impact on the deficit. Right after 9/11 the economy was on the verge of collapse. The tax cuts helped instill confidence in our economy.
They probably led to increased spending (and tax revenue) when some people were ready to horde their money and buy mass quantities of gold.
