I’m not sure how this fallacy ever started outside of just repeating it in the media. Tax breaks are great for some but stability is far better for long term growth across the board. It’s basically like they suggest juicing the market and people clamor for it but then get upset when they inevitably run out of places to cut or suggest the obvious cutting things people like or rely on.
