>Spending increases the deficit
Depends on what you're spending on. Spending on the IRS decreases the deficit.

>Tax cuts are supposed to be accompanied with budget cuts to pass the savings to the tax payer
If you're cutting people's benefits and services, you're passing costs onto the taxpayer, not savings. Also "supposed to be". Also last time they were passed with tax increases (delayed obviously, so a later admin would be left holding the bag, whoops).

>No amount of taxation will fix deficit spending
Spending isn't inherently something that needs to be fixed. The government needs to spend money to provide services and procure supplies. The government spending money is not a bad thing. If you mean no amount of taxation will fix the deficit, that's obviously wrong. A greater amount of taxation than the deficit would fix the deficit. Although obviously bringing down the deficit should not be done through taxation alone. It should be done through a combination of taxation, tax enforcement, cuts to less essential programs, and monetary policy.
