The main problem with his article is that the tax rate has nothing to do with the national debt. Spending more than you make causes debt.
Very true but so far no Congress or President has yet to decrease spending at any level or any element of the budget so from his POV and as you rightly pointed, spending and debt is the greater evil. If neither party when in control refuse to cut spending and being increasing debt is even worse, then the only thing left in order to maintain the health of the state is to eliminate tax cuts and in some cases raise taxes in order to balance the books. Stockman is no anarchist so from his POV he is correct if the goal is to preserve the State itself.
You want the state so you got it!
Personally I hope the tax cuts stay, spending increases and along with it the debt. It will in due course destroy the state itself so either way I get what I want and I'll never have to cast one vote for it. All you good voters will do that for me!
