Mr. Trump and House Speaker Paul Ryan are united by the conviction that cutting taxes — especially on corporations and the wealthy — is what drives growth.
A look at the states, however, suggests that they’re wrong.
Red states dominated by Republicans embrace cut and extract. Blue states
dominated by Democrats do much more to maintain their investments in education,
infrastructure, urban quality of life and human services — investments
typically financed through more progressive state and local taxes. And despite
what you may have heard, blue states are generally doing better.
And that's why we live in the Great Liberal Northeast, isn't it, Ms. Kenawe?
