 The [[Laffer Curve]] is named after his promotion of the concept that, when tax rates are high, a decrease in tax rates can cause an increase in tax revenues. A reporter for the [[Wall Street Journal]], [[Jude Wanniski]], coined the term after seeing Laffer sketch the curve on a napkin. This negates the naive assumption that a tax rate of close to 100% maximizes revenue.
