NOt talking about Deperdau, talking about the overall effect of the laffer effect, Deperdau is a famous eg as the Stones were in the UK in the 70s and Daniels et al are always bought up as good reason to increase the tax rate by the left ha ha very funny. Ever noticed how US technology giants are stuffed with brilliant British 50 and 60 something's? That's the effect of punitive unrewarding tax regime of 70s Britain right there a brain and talent drain, that damaged our country....but don.t worry Brucie and Michael Caine will go if we introduce a 70% tax rate.. good enough for me. Ever noticed how London is stuffed full of ambitious, talented French youth? Just one of them things I guess..
