Hmmm, tax cuts equal higher revenues? Shocked, shocked i tell you!

What "tax cuts"?

Without corresponding spending cuts, the phony "tax cuts" are simply deficits - deferred taxes to be paid later, with lots of interest piled on. Thus, an even more gigantic federal debt.

You do not understand economics and should not make comments like the above.

We do need spending cuts. Huge spending cuts. But, if the government cuts my taxes and borrows the money at current 10 year yields, about 4.1%, and I take that money and earn 10%,or pay down 14% credit cards, that's a net benefit to me and the country.

Understand now?
