This is an incredibly stupid statement. If tax cuts lead to any growth, they will eventually pay for themselves. If you don't understand that you need to retake remedial math.

Almost every Economist I have ever met or talked with agrees that if tax cuts provide any growth at all they will pay forthemselves. The only way for the anti supply side argument to work is if the tax cuts provide absolutely no growth.

If tax cuts lead to any growth, then the supply side theory works.
