These features are rightly called “tax expenditures,” because they describe the government spending that occurs through the tax code. Eliminating or reducing these tax expenditures should therefore be seen as cutting government spending.
这些条款被正确地称为“税收开支”，它描述的是政府通过税法发生的支出。因此，消灭或减少这类税收开支应该被视为削减政府支出。尽管其作用是增加了收入，但这只是会计算法内容。其真正的经济效应是降低了政府支出。
