at the expense of overall economic growth (thus low GDP growth numbers)
its actually EXACTLY what the "narrative" of this board was:
short term gains in tax revenue in exchange for lower economic growth. in the long term, that usually results in lower tax revenues (maybe not in real dollars, but certainly in terms of opportunity cost)
