You are off topic on tax cuts and you are also incorrect.

Cutting taxes has always increased revenue. Spending is a separate and distinct issue.

Spending is the problem, alone, not cutting taxes.

“Spending is the problem, alone, not cutting taxes.”

You are incorrect. Debt is the problem. Any combination of policies that increases the debt is bad. You cannot pretend that one policy is an absolute good while ignoring other policies directly related to it. Reducing taxes while ignoring spending adds to the debt. That makes it bad. I am all for cutting taxes, as long as it does not add to the debt. If you are unable to cut taxes concurrently with reducing spending then we should not be doing it. Unless you are prepared to exempt me and my family from our share of the national debt. In which case you can do whatever the hell you want.
