Sure, but you're "historical observation" implies causality. Otherwise, what's the point of it? You could just as well correlate the increase in tax revenue the number of shells you found on the beach. I provided you with independent analysis of the tax cuts that show that they resulted in decreased revenue.
We are told that tax cuts lead to deficits because of lowered tax receipts. All I stated was that tax receipts
increased following tax cuts. That's the point of it - to dispel the myth that the government takes in fewer tax dollars following cuts.
Then you do the same thing you accuse me of - stating with certainty that revenue
would have been higher without cuts. You say you provided "analysis" showing the cuts result
ed (past tense) in decreased revenue. Here's a quote from this analysis, "The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act cut taxes substantially from 2018 through 2025. The resulting deficits will add $1 to $2 trillion to the federal debt,
according to official estimates." (emphasis mine). That nonsense was based largely on
estimates produced in 2017 - look at the data sources yourself. "JCT projected that the law would
reduce revenues by $1.65 trillion from 2018 to 2027." (emphasis mine). Guess what, the same JCT and CBO's latest projection now is not reduced revenues, but increased revenues over that period by $570B! That is after an
actual (as in, it actually occurred) increase from $3.32T (2017) to $4.90T (2022).
The Congressional Budget Office’s May 2022 forecast shows that the government now expects to bring in more tax revenue in the decade following the 2017 “Trump tax cuts” than it had projected prior to the December 2017 passage of tax reform.

Just because somebody says something
will happen doesn't mean that it did. This is precisely the reason I posted my example.
