Taxes

I keep hearing about all of these candidates wanting to cut taxes. If taxes are cut, programs have to be canceled or other taxes have to be increased. I understand that no one wants to have less money, but doesn't it make more sense to increase taxes rather then decrease? Or is it just a dilemma of keeping people happy and the economy up rather than keeping government funded programs running?

I think all these claims of wanting to cut taxes are just ploys to please voters. I agree that cutting taxes seems like it would just cause problems when it comes to the funding the provided for programs and services. There must be a better way to help the economy and please voters while not messing up much needed programs that are funded by those taxes.
