Television pundits have stated, “We need to pay for tax cuts,” or words to that effect. Do not fall into this progressive-socialist trap.
Taxes are the peoples’ money, not the government’s money. Tax cuts do not need to “be paid for” as they are a savings to the tax payer. On the contrary, government spending must “be paid for.”
Only big government progressive-socialists would ask the people to accept a tax increase in order to pay for a tax savings. Their skewed view is that government is separate from the people; that the government is not one “of the people, for the people and by the people.” Progressive-socialists believe the people exist to support the government.
This is the great divide between progressive-socialists and the rest of us, who believe that government power is derived from the consent of the people and government exists to serve the people.
