Notice how they don't apply the logic that these tax cuts were someone else's tax burden.
- danielweber 13y agoI have no idea about Cato's overall position on this, but broad tax cuts are a different policy beast from targeted tax cuts for the connected. C.f. the best way to repeal an unjust law is to make it get applied everywhere. If the governor's son has to spend 2 years in jail for pot possession, the pro-legalization should want him treated like every other person; if he gets a special exemption, then what they see as an unjust law can continue.
- jshen 13y agoYou seem to conflate targeted cuts with corrupt cuts. They aren't necessarily the same. Cato has supported targeted cuts in the past.
