Last Sunday, I heard Billy Cunningham say that Arthur Laffer should have won the Nobel Prize in Economics and I passed it off as just more of his wackiness.

TALLAHASSEE — Boosting his credentials as a tax-cutting, proponent of small government, Gov.-elect Rick Scott on Monday named a roster of supply side and libertarian economic advisors to advise him on tax and budget issues during the transition.

The Scott transition advisory team also includes Arthur Laffer, who worked in the Reagan Administration and for whom the Laffer curve, which illustrated that in certain cases lower tax rates could increase tax revenues, is named. The idea is the underpinning of supply-side economics.
