The Purpose of Tax Cuts
Tax cuts are sold as helping the government operate more smoothly and letting citizens decide how to spend their own money.
The actual goal of tax cuts is to:
- Allow corporations and rich individuals to keep more of their money...reward them for doing well in the system.
- Cut social spendinging. Financially aiding people is viewed similarly as feeding parasites. If we help people then they will never grow responsible enough to run their own lives.
- In cutting social spending it means that progressive organizations need to spread their funds even thinner across more people. These tax cuts overwork these progressive organizations and prevent them from building for the future.
- Normally operating in a defecit is considered a bad thing...something old time conservatives would be against. Today it is considered the standard because it starves the system, killing off the weak and the poor.
