If the government spends money, it generally isn't good for the economy. Some specific spending might be beneficial or even necessary but the current level of spending far exceeds what is needed. If the spending is met through taxes, than the taxes take money out of the private sector. If its met through borrowing than the borrowing takes money out of the private sector. But taxes have compliance costs and provide perverse incentives. If taxes are low than people and companies have less incentive to structure their decisions around the tax code.
