Much of the disagreement over "tax cuts" is "who gets them." You can't even really say "everyone gets equally" because everyone isn't taxed equally. So - do you cut taxes on the poor? That doesn't impact the economy as much as cutting taxes on the rich, simply from a volumetric standpoint. What if you raise taxes on the rich? Well, historically we've done well with that. Historically, however, elections haven't been bought and paid for by the rich so it's a non-starter. How about businesses? The Left will argue that they're the ones that are paying for the elections and there are so many loopholes they don't really pay taxes at all. The Right, on the other hand, will point out that the real tax rate paid by corporations in the United States is higher than most developed nations and the loop holes simply take it from "ludicrous" to "oppressive." Besides which the tax code provides a great deal of portability to corporations, allowing them to off-shore at the drop of a hat. So when you say "tax cuts" you necessarily have to get into a deep, dirty discussion of "WHOSE tax cuts" and here we are.
