Hey not quite. I did not say 'no benefit to us' that's your add on. On the contrary there was a lot of benefit to 'today's us'. Getting someone else to pay off your credit card bills is a good deal for 'today's us'.
So getting someone to pay off our 12% (16%, 18%, 20%) credit cards with 4% money isn't a tax cut?
Lets focus on whether we should cheer the jobs, wealth, and increased revenue that the tax-cuts helped bring about.
Some people worry about the debt and want to raise taxes. Every time in history that taxes were raised, within a decade both spending and the debt were higher than ever. I consider raising taxes to be a risky scheme that hurts future generations and is fiscally irresponsible.
