A new collection<\/a> of essays and analysis from American Compass questions the efficacy of tax cuts as a strategy for generating broad-based economic growth. With top marginal income tax rates now roughly half of what they were at the start of the supply-side revolution in the 1980s, the evidence suggests that further tax cuts are unlikely to deliver the investment, productivity, and wage gains that Americans want and need. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The collection, titled\u00a0A Walk on the Supply Side<\/a><\/em>, includes three essays examining the history and limits of supply-side economics, as well as the potential for more targeted policies to address contemporary economic challenges. It also features\u00a0new analysis<\/a>\u00a0of revised GDP and business investment data showing that the economic boosts promised from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and Bush tax cuts of 2001\/2003 failed to materialize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
