B) Yes; only lower tax rates will increase the incentive to earn marginal income and thereby stimulate aggregate supply.
C) No; in both cases people will increase their saving in the expectation of higher future taxes and thereby offset the stimulus effect of lower taxes.
D) Yes; interest rates will increase if marginal tax rates are lowered, whereas they will tend to decrease if marginal tax rates are left unchanged.
