If you google "starving the beast", you'll find some very interesting things.
Like <a href="http://www.brookings.edu/views/articles/20041115galeorszag.htm">this one</a>, an article from <i>Tax Notes</i> on the Brookings Institution's website.
Or <a href="http://www.cato.org/pubs/handbook/hb109/hb_109-10.pdf">this publication</a> (titled "Starving the Beast Will Not Work") from the Cato Institute.
Or <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/11/28/AR2005112801224_pf.html">this editorial</a> from hurricane-torn and cash-strapped Louisiana, which appeared in the Washington Post in late November. (Oops. That writer uses words like "cynical" and "callous" to describe Bush. Might be too much blind hate for you.)
This isn't fringe-group ranting. Major political institutions and publications are dealing with this topic. Your ignorance in this matter doesn't make it a crackpot theory.
