Episode notes
Dynamic Growth from Investment Incentives
- The bill's full expensing on equipment and factories strongly incentivizes investment and job creation.\n- This investment boosts economic growth, which in turn increases government revenue dynamically.
Huge Deficit Reduction Discrepancy
- The administration predicts $8.5 to $11 trillion in deficit reduction due to growth, tariffs, and spending cuts.\n- This contrasts sharply with the CBO's static estimate of a $3 trillion deficit increase.
CBO Misses Dynamic Revenue Effects
- CBO scores the bill without accounting for the additional economic activity triggered by tax incentives.\n- Increased factory building and investment lead to more income and tax revenue not captured by CBO's model.
