It turns out that there is a direct correlation between taxes and the size of government. Cutting taxes without cutting spending actually INCREASES the size of government.
Stoking the Beast: "The conservative movement is in no position to accept or even acknowledge those implications, now that tax cutting has become the long pole in the Republican tent. Therein lies the element of tragedy. By turning a limited-government movement into an anti-tax movement, conservatism has effectively gone into business with the Big Government that it claims to oppose. It is not starving the beast. It is fueling the beast’s appetite. And the beast has a credit card.<"
