  1. I forgot to mention that an increase in demand can be achieved by increasing the disposable income of consumers. if a tax cut are delivered to those who earn less than $80 000, most if not all will be spent which will be the increase in demand that businesses need to increase their investment.

  2. I was rather surprised when no one mentioned the fact that when you give tax cuts to businesses they usually accept this as part of an increase in profit. If you want businesses to invest and create jobs, this can be done by increasing demand. businesses will react by increasing capacity ie bigger premises, better machinery and increase in its workforce. there is less risk and a better return.
