Bush cannot change everything overnight. By cutting taxes, there will be less money to spend by the government. This is the first step in the right direction. By favoring private charities (faith-based initiatives) to care for the needy, the government will be less and less involved with social work. Partially privatizing Social Security, is also going in the right direction. With more time, we are going to see more and more measures implemented that will indicate that George W. Bush does what is right, although it is not always easy to choose to do so, in particular with a Democratic Senate and certain lukewarm Republicans.

By cutting taxes, there will be less money to spend by the government. The last two times taxes were cut (Kennedy and Reagan), the intake to the federal coffers increased. Therefore, a tax cut isn't exactly a recipe for starving the beast.
