  Tax Cuts Decrease Federal Revenue by $1.7 trillion
Making the 2001, 2002, and 2003 tax cuts permanent would reduce revenues by $1.7 trillion through 2014.  If we include the added interest payment to national debt, this figure rises to $2.0 trillion.  Tax revenues pay for programs like health care, education and national security.  So in order to finance this loss in tax revenue, we have two choices: 1) cut social spending or 2) increase the national debt.
