A deficit is a future tax burden (or probably worse a future inflation burden, or default and fiscal crisis). But that doesn't change the fact that - A tax break itself doesn't directly increase anyone's tax burden, it just causes an increased deficit that has to be dealt with (assuming your not starting with a surplus.

Ultimately it's taxpayer debt, not government debt.

No its the government's debt, and the government takes from taxpayers to pay its debt.
