Here's some actual data. These are the average/year effects over the first four years.
http://www.treasury.gov/resource-ce...nts/OTA-Rev-Effects-1940-present-6-6-2011.pdf
ERTA 81 ____________-197.9
TEFRA 82_____________64.8
SS Amend 1983________15.1
DRA 84_______________29.4
TRA 86________________0.2
Omnibus 1987_________21.2
Those are the big ones. The tax cut is ERTA, all the rest were tax increases, with TEFRA undoing about one third of ERTA. TRA 86 was intended as neutral, but raised taxes in the first couple of years (while Reagan was POTUS) but then were predicted to reverse under H.W. so the net over 4 years was roughly zero. Total - 197B in tax cuts, about 130B in tax increases. All anyone remembers is the big one in 1981.
I wouldn't bother but "Conservative" keeps saying Reagan cut taxes three years in a row. As you can see, that is not true, at all.
BTW, I think the data are a credit to Reagan, who did sign tax increases when the tax cuts caused the deficits to balloon. He couldn't do that now. He's just claim the tax cuts had nothing to do with the deficits, it's all the fault of those dastardly democrats and their big spending....
A lot of TRA 86 was also good, most especially eliminating the preference for capital gains.
