	The Communitarian Network
		If Laffer had planned to try his theory on the economy of, say, one prison, he would have had to go before a human subjects committee first; if he had sought to market a new stimulant pill, years of animal testing and FDA approval would be required.
		Having listened to Laffer, and read all he has published on the subject, it seems to me that Laffer is uncritically adding anecdotes to valid, widely recognized general principles to reach the conclusion on which public policy is to be based.
		Laffer's answer is: "How long does it take you to pick up a $50 bill?" In other words, he expects an almost instantaneous feedback effect.

	TheStreet.com: Exclusive: Arthur Laffer Is No Laughing Matter for Some

	Arthur Laffer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Laffer is best known for the Laffer curve, a curve illustrating tax elasticity which asserts that in certain situations, a decrease in tax rates could result in an increase in tax revenues.
		Earlier in his USC tenure, Laffer played a key role in the writing of Proposition 13, the still-controversial California property tax cap initiative that spawned a host of similar laws around the United States and is generally credited with launching the tax revolt of the 1970s and 1980s.
		Arthur Laffer for years had no idea about the existence of the games until much later when Larry's creator, Al Lowe sent him a letter.

		The Laffer Curve, by the way, was not invented by me. For example, Ibn Khaldun, a 14th century Muslim philosopher, wrote in his work The Muqaddimah: "It should be known that at the beginning of the dynasty, taxation yields a large revenue from small assessments.

	Some Observation on the Laffer Curve
		Arthur Laffer’s seminal discussion of the relation between tax revenues and “the” tax rate was an analytical cornerstone of the supply-side economics revolution during the early 1980s (see Canto, Joines, and Laffer [1982]).
		The Laffer curve is often used to explain the behavior of a revenue-maximizing bureaucracy.
		Because the Laffer curve is generally connected with standard macroeconomic analysis it remains an unsatisfactory analytical tool because it tends to conceal the fact that the optimal size of government is zero.

		In those days, Laffer also developed what he called his "wedge model," which gives us a picture that helps in the further understanding of Say’s Law, Lesson #4.
		As Laffer developed it, he discussed the wedge between an employer and an employee, between management and labor.
		It has been useful to me over the years to transpose Laffer’s wedge to a wall, which rises brick by brick, or falls brick by brick.

	ANDONGKIM.COM - The World according to Arthur Laffer by Almasy
		To the creator of the "Laffer curve", fl is white, bad is good, and the US current account deficit approaching 6% of US GDP is actually a capital surplus.
		In yesterday's Wall St. Journal, Arthur Laffer argues that the US deficit is a direct reflection of our attractiveness as an investment destination, providing foreign investors with the highest rate of return on their "investment".
		Laffer argued that spending on Chinese toys, Japanese cars and Korean cell phones actually "releases" US capital for other kinds of investments, that is, allows US companies to pursue other, presumably superior, lines of business.

	Laffer curve - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The curve, developed by Arthur Laffer, is primarily used by advocates who want government to reduce tax rates (such as those on capital gains) whenever it appears to exceed this "optimum" level.
		The satire illustrates the major fallacy commonly committed with the Laffer curve, namely the assumption that the middle is a smooth, concave function merely because the two extreme endpoints are well-defined.
		As a pedagogical tool, a Laffer curve helps illustrate a specific application of the law of diminishing returns, where the inhibitory cost of taxes may eventually outweigh the increased rate of taxation, and thus led to a counterintuitive lower realization of tax revenue.

		Laffer also developed what he called his "wedge model," which gives us a picture that helps in the further understanding of Say's Law of Markets, the theory that “supply creates its own demand”, the essence of classical, supply-side theory.
		As Laffer developed it, he discussed the wedge between an employer and an employee, between management and labor.
		At this extreme point on the Laffer Curve, or at his maximum "wedge," both producers have dropped out of the market economy.

	WorldNetDaily: Reagan revolution redux?
		The theory by economist Arthur Laffer counters the argument that America "can't afford" tax cuts because they drain resources from the government, says Wall Street Journal editorial board member Stephen Moore in a column.
		Laffer asserted that lowering the tax rate on production, work, investment and risk-taking will help stimulate these activities, thereby generating more tax revenue for the government rather than less.
		According to Beltway legend, Laffer sketched out his famous curve on a napkin at a dinner meeting in 1974 attended by policy makers, including Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.
