The tax rates hurt economic growth more the higher they go. Call me crazy, but I don’t think imposing more job-killing taxes during a recession is a good idea.

Well, sure, but they’re almost shockingly low at this point, exacerbated by tax havens and S-corporation manipulations. I don’t think we should be raising the corporate tax rate in a recession, but I also want people to acknowledge that our tax rates are low.

Or how about some massive tax BREAKS during the recession conditional on aggressive hiring! I’d be fine with that. Target it to the entities who are creating jobs.
