If we give them a lower tax rate don't we have a right to ask how they are spending the money?
If we have a right to ask how the schools are spending our money, then if we pay higher taxes so dividends and capital gains can pay less, dont we have the right to ask how the money is being spent?
I mean if it is to create jobs, dont we have a right to ask, How many jobs did that car elevator create?.
Is there a better way to create jobs?
This guy says it better:

No one should have the right to tell someone how to spend thier own money, unless of course it comes from the government.
and when one day when one person is born with all the money we can all do just as He says, like the good old days, when the people didn't have to worry about what to do you do as the King tells you....
And just how will that one person obtain all the money in a free market system? Can't happen. While of course capitalism and a free market is exercised by imperfect people, there will be imperfections and there will be inequities. But in every place in which it has been tried, it has produced far more prosperity for far more people than any other economic system.
The fallacy in the statist/liberal/leftist/big government advocate thinking is that government is somehow more honorable than is the private sector. The people in government are no more perfect than are those in the private sector, are no less self serving, and with power to take property from others and without a profit motive to restrain them or encourage productive results, are far more likely to be corrupt than is the private sector.
In the private sector, there is no power to take property from others without their consent, and the profit motive encourages policy that maximizes results and thereby benefits the economy as a whole.
