This is the thread for the "liberals" to explain how tax cuts = spending

[Amandasaur!]

Though i'm not a democrat. I think what the liberals have done is effectively persuaded much of the public that because constant taxes + increase in spending = reduced taxes + constant spending, in terms of the deficit, (excluding also externalities that affect an actual inequality) that cutting taxes = increasing spending.

You say this over and over again (at the urging of your beloved pundits, such as former enron advisor paul krugman).

Do you have even a shred of reasoning behind this?


Cutting taxes is equivalent to spending money because _________________

All obviously due to tax cuts and nothing to do with the end of the dot-com/9-11 bust! And adjusted for inflation too. You're a genius!

Well an obvious answer would be because we possess a national debt that is gaining interest every second, and every second we don't pay for lack of funRAB, it grows ever so slightly into a larger amount that will have to be paid back. I don't really see this argument very often since not being here, but if you want a rationalization, that's it.

I would only "complain less" if they raised taxes short term and defined a real roadmap to get deficit spending taken care of quickly. We all know that is not going to happen.
