Not crush the economy. I want the spending to come down and the revenue to increase.
We've had these tax cuts in place since the Bush era and the economy has not exactly thrived. In fact, one financial analyst from CNBC this morning stated that the Economy was not growing under Bush despite the tax cuts.

Having just sent off my income tax payment and my quarterly payment today, I'm not especially anxious to see taxes go up, if but paying down our deficit will save the country, then I'll suck it up. Of course, if we start more wars or come up with new entitlement programs to spend money on, I'm not interested.
