Tax cuts won't make a big difference in the US imo since tax-payers' money is, and have always been since the 50s, going into funding wars that the US army is directly involved in (Afghanistan ,Iraq...), wars that they have other armies fight on their behalf (Israel, South Korea, South Sudan....), civil wars in numerous countries (Currently: Libya, Syria..etc) and some global organizations to allow themselves to control those supposedly impartial organizations, and subsequently control major political decisions in the world (most recently the incident with UNESCO regarding Palestine). But mostly Israel! I think the Americans are in way over their heads this time, they've bitten more than they can chew and this crisis will not go away simply with a few regulations and taxes.
