What needs justification is government spending. But most of what we hear in the media is the other way around. We re supposed to be leery of a tax cut. Afraid of it. That s nonsense.
Further nonsense is how tax cuts are characterized as giveaways.
Politicians who are against tax cuts make it sound like the government is handing out money when it cuts taxes. Tax cuts don t give money to anyone. Tax cuts don t give money back to anyone. Tax cuts simply leave a little more money in the hands of the people who work to earn it. Instead of going to Washington, the money stays in your pocket or your bank account.
