The Laffer Curve: Reviewing the Evidence

By Daniel J. Mitchell

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the number of views and the positive feedback for the free‐​market tax videos I’ve been narrating. Part I of the Laffer Curve video series already has been seen more that 14,000 times — and nearly 15,000 times if the Capital Hill Broadcast Network is added to the count.


Part II of the Laffer Curve video series is now available for your viewing pleasure. Building on the theoretical discussion in Part I, this new video reviews some of the real‐​world evidence on the Laffer Curve.

As always, I’m interested in feedback. And feel free to circulate any of these videos to friends and colleagues. It seems that success begets success on youtube. More people watch a video if they see other people have watched it. And since, as of this morning, the Part II video is #49 for today’s most‐​watched list in the News & Politics category, it’s encouraging that it is getting some attention.
