Of course not!

Lowering taxes would help the American people, can't have that.

Emperor Jug-Ears has set the precedent for the future dictatorship. The Dems and Pravda USA have raised no objections. We are witnessing the fuster-cluck that is the Democrat Party.

Situational ethics.

Nobody's discussed this concept for a while, but it explains everything. If an action furthers your agenda, it's constitutional and "the right thing to do". A similar action which doesn't accomplish what you want is illegal, unconstitutional, immoral.

Obama's unilateral immigration giveaway increases the base of Democrat voters and creates a new class of second class dependents, along with the administrators to support them. Goes down good with the party line.

OTOH, cutting taxes helps to make wage-earners more independent. They might make their own decisions on where to spend their money, and they "might not spend it right". Government might have to learn to get by with less money, it might even have to shrink! IRS workers could lose their jobs here, this is serious!

Obama: Not Legitimate for Future Presidents to Lower Taxes via Executive Action...okay, well how 'bout voiding all gun control laws on the grounds that they hamper poor folks, who are disproportionately affected by violent crime, from protecting themselves - how would that fly?....

We cannot lower taxes, but the President can announce an amnesty to everyone who ‘forgets’ to pay their taxes.

I’d do it.
