Answer:

The successful evacuation was a great boost to civilian morale, and created the 'Dunkirk spirit' which helped Britain to fight on in the summer of 1940

Explanation:

Despite many ships being sunk and many lives lost, by the end of the operation on 4 June, Ramsay, his ships and staff had rescued 338,226 British and Allied troops and landed them in England. The rescue came to be regarded as a 'miracle', and remains the largest amphibious evacuation undertaken in wartime

BaLLatris [955]
The bill by President George W. Bush EGTRRA called for large tax cuts similar to Economic Recovery Act of 1981 by President Reagan. 

The assumptions behind the theory used as a basis by President Reagan to lower the taxes of big companies was Laffer's theory. This states that when an industry is charged with more tax, it suppresses their capability to produce more products. Since more products mean more tax. If the tax collection is lowered, this will result in higher production and is good for the country's economy. Also, they thought that the previous tax collection is more than what the government needs.
