Thomson: Cut taxes now and everyone will win

Charlie Crist's proposed tax cuts deserve a good look outside the narrow box of: "How will we pay for them?" In case the 25 years of growth since Reagan wasn't enough, Alabama shows the way.

There is never a bad time to cut taxes, because it is always a good time to grow the economy. We've seen since the 1980s that tax cuts generate more investment by companies and individuals, more expendable income in households and thus an overall stronger economy with more tax revenues in government coffers.
