re: #196 Obdicut

Ok so I got it wrong about the CBO but it is still a valid paper.
I don’t know what misrepresentation you are referencing to.
And I ask again, did you read the Greg Mankiw link? Here it is (again) gregmankiw.blogspot.com
And do you understand the concept of marginal analysis? The marginal tax rate is a tax on the value added by each worker. so obviously if the value that they add to the firm is taxed they are going to have a lower marginal product.
How about you actually cite a paper by an economist saying that higher corporate taxes have absoluely no effect on wages or firms’ decision to hire. Yeah, I’d really like to see that.
