We need to lower marginal tax rates and increase investment.

Reduced marginal tax rates on individuals and business fosters growth every time.

The linkage between tax rates and public services is, if not non-existent, negative.

Here's the question for my fellow Republicans: Do we want to be the first-ever GOP House majority to raise federal marginal income tax rates?

You're foursquare in a dilemma if you want to broaden the base and lower tax rates. If you broaden the base, you raise taxes on people who pay nothing, and if you lower rates you cut taxes for the rich.

You don't get gushers of revenue by raising tax rates. You get it through expansion.
