Art Laffer: Susan Collins Is Wrong About a 22% Corporate Tax Rate; We Need to Cut Further than 20%

‘She is wonderful and a great senator and she is very wrong what she is asking for’

EXCERPT:

LAFFER: "I think Susan Collins is one of the neatest people going. She is a character, she's wonderful and she's a great senator. I think she is very wrong on what she is asking for. She wants to get rid of the mandate, which is one huge tax on people who don’t want to do ACA and don’t want to become a member. But because, if they don’t they get taxed, they become members begrudgingly. That’s not a right thing to do to Americans. And there are a couple of others there. You want to cut the corporate tax rate even further than 20 percent because all corporate taxes,Sandra, the reason we do it is to create economic growth, jobs, output. We want people to pay more taxes, not less, because they have higher-paying jobs."
