this is exactly what I was talking about in the other topic.
You can't cut taxes permanently if you are not willing to cut spending on healthcare, pensions, or the military.

They know that if they run saying that they will do something like that, they have no chance, so they resort to these pieces of fiction.

Of course, this time they claim that the difference will come from those who pay nothing now. But here is the thing: people in the upper bracket make something like 80% of the total income in the US, and are responsible for something like 78% of the total tax revenues. A 10% tax increase on the poorest sections of the population will not in any way make up for a 10% tax cut at the top.
