(Funny... I didn't see you include it's effects in your comment. But the Treasury analysis certainly included debt effects --- and you seem to be studiously ignoring that point.)

I explicitly mentioned that you have to pay interest on the debt and that you have to tax more or borrow more to pay that interest.


I didn't 'apply them to tax cuts'. I simply considered government economic policy as a whole... as did the US Treasury.


If you are considering "government economic policy as a whole", than you can't draw any meaningful conclusions about the effects of tax cuts based on your considerations.
