You can say that most economists agree to anything, but that does not make it so. The same goes for saying that "That's how it is" and plugging your ears to empirical evidence. Tax rates alone are no indication of the wealth of the nation, or the spending power or average discretionary budget of its citizens.

Conservatives in every country usually argue that lower taxes drives the free markets to fix all problems while regulating themselves. The fact of the matter is that lower taxes put money in private hands, and those hands may or (More commonly) may not choose to invest that money in ways which better the nation as a whole.

Boom times in the U.S. have followed both raising taxes and lowering them. The key to a successful economy is successful regulation and oversight, something that is possible but difficult when capital is in the hands of private citizens and easier but more prone to corruption and bureaucratic misappropriation when in the hands of a government. The key difference is that lower tax rates have been shown to give those citizens who control the wealth the opportunity to use it for their own short term benefit, while higher taxes give the government a chance to wisely invest the money for the good of all.

Lowered taxes cause booms and busts such as in the 20's, 80's, and 2000's. Raised taxes and intelligent oversight lead to reliable and persistent growth. As John F. Kennedy said; "A rising tide lifts all boats".
