Media Matters: Limbaugh Falsely Claims "It's Demonstrably Proven That Tax Cuts Increase Revenue

May 10, 2011 2:12 pm ET

From the May 10 edition of Premiere Radio Networks' The Rush Limbaugh Show. This is what the uniformed and under-educated blowhard claims about tax cuts. 

This is what Mark Zandi of Moody Analytics says. Zandi was advisor to John McCain during the 2008 campaign. 

It should be clear that most tax cuts are break-even propositions while temporary increases in food stamps, extending employment, and increased infrastructure spending have more of a multiplier effect on the tax dollar and are far more stimulative. 

What have Republican governors like Rick Scott and Chris Christie been doing? They have been reducing the number of weeks an unemployed workers can draw unemployment while approving more tax cuts for corporations.
