"What appears to be missing from this argument is empirical data demonstrating a strong correlation between reduced capitol gains tax." May the reader please refer to the graph above concerning earnings from 81 86 97 and 2003. They did provide that graph for a reason. And you're foolish to believe that capital gains tax is for the rich. It includes everyone's savings. Unless you are under 30 and don't really care or know better, then yes you can pretend that only the rich get richer. And you are wrong wrong wrong about the unemployment rate with the stock market going up. So I'm not sure where you get your empirical data?!
