So the Government does not take your $19,000 in payroll tax and you go out and employ someone to work for you. Great scheme. But the roads are in disrepair so he can't get there, no police so he has to stay at home to protect his house, no school to teach him to the level to get the job and you don't have a job because the Internet was originally funded by Government.

Or you pay $19,000 in sales, gas, land and other taxes. You seem to think this money is disappearing, it's not it's being spent to provide all the services you take for granted.

Tax cuts do have a very positive effect on the economy, but not when you massively increase spending as Bush did.
He cut taxes and spent, a recipe for a disaster.
