re: #99 Cheechako

Isn’t increasing taxes a source of new revenue?

1. Boehner agreeing to “accept more revenue” through dynamic scoring of growth impact of tax reform is meaningless.

2. It’s not even clear what refusing to accept higher revenue through faster growth would mean.

3. If the economy grows faster, tax revenues will increase whether Boehner or anyone else agrees.
