Lower tax rates and lower government spending likely offers lower benefits.


Erroneous assumption.

And in the real test, the actual practice, supports my contention.

Well, given that no other country can offer anywhere near the same benefits at our tax rate

A lot of government spending, both in the US and elsewhere, doesn't amount to "benefits". Some of the spending is a net benefit. Some is beneficial in isolation if you don't consider the cost. Some is harmful, where there would be no net benefit even if the cost was zero.
