I think it's great if corporations and the wealthy pay fewer taxes, if the middle class pay fewer taxes, and everyone else too, but I also think taxes and the deficit should go hand-in-hand, as tax cuts directly affect the deficit.
Increasing the deficit to give out tax breaks is irresponsible. If we're going to spend more money, we have to increase our revenue and at least try to balance the budget. If US citizens started seeing the result of their representatives' budget decisions on their taxes every year, I think we would start to see some very immediate progress with the national debt. Due to our de-coupling of the two, citizens are left apathetic or ignorant of the consequences.
So while I'd love for everyone to pay fewer taxes, we don't deserve tax cuts. Either we vote for representatives who drastically reduce the budget, or we pay out of pocket each year to balance the budget. Honestly, I think it should be a constitutional amendment; tying taxes directly to yearly spending.
