Should taxes be fair or should taxes be based on what works best for the economy?

I think the least harmful would be analyzing what spending is least beneficial and cutting that in addition to raising revenues.

If you care about what is most fair as opposed to what is most efficient though, you're going to get different answers. I think it is more fair for capital gains to be taxed higher than income taxes, but is that necessarily the most beneficial? Probably not.
