Tax cuts (if properly targeted) do not need to be “funded.”

A cut in capital gains taxes would have to be funded with budget cuts or paid by a charge card? Is it better for me to have more of my money or should it go to a government that refuses to control their spending? Which is more likely to stimulate the economy?

You don't know much about how economics work do you? The economy isn't like a jar of M&Ms where you just take them out, it is more like seeds. If a city wants to best feed a lot of people, they don't take all the corn from the farmer, they let the farmer plant the corn and grow more food.

Spending is a problem, but tax cuts can't be analogized to 'the old charge card'.
