Is it true that cutting income tax rates increases long-run economic growth in the United States?
Partly. One peer-reviewed US study finds higher top statutory corporate and personal income tax rates reduce real GDP per capita, and another assesses the link between the maximum marginal tax rate and US growth, both bearing only on top rates rather than rate cuts generally. A further analysis argues well-crafted tax laws can promote long-term expansion, but none of the items settles the general claim about cutting income tax rates.
