Like most people, I assume you have some source of revenue - a job, or social security or investment income. If you lose your job, and thus your revenue, you will go into debt unless you drastically cut your spending. On the other hand, you can spend freely without going into debt, as long as you maintain a high income. This is not a hard concept. I dare say a 2nd grader could understand it.
Your solution is to cut spending. I'm all for it. Please list the programs you would cut that would make a meaningful dent in the budget.
That's what I said. Cut spending.
Cut all of the spending that the US Constitution's Article 1 Section 8 doesn't specifically allow. That means the abolition of the US Dept of Education, Title I spending, federal public assistance programs, etc., spending. Those are all states' responsibilities, and only applicable per states' populations approval, per the US Constitution.
And what is wrong with that? If you want "rob" (taxes) to be zero, you'll have to make "redistribute" (spending) also zero. If you can convince the Congress and the American people to cut out all spending, you can have your zero taxes. Until then, we ought to pay for what we've bought, instead of sticking our kids with the bill.
What don't you understand about the fact that tax cuts don't add debt? Congressional overspending does. Cut spending.
But, but, we must buy Greenland.
