I also understand that to sell this as a tax CUT is dishonest.
It misrepresents what happens.

Not really. I think you're spinning it negatively. While neither spin is what I'd characterize as dishonest, if I were forced to pick one of the two as dishonest, I'd say it was yours.

"We're going to lower the tax percentages and, through increases in The People's pay and their resulting increased sending, collect higher tax revenues" I believe can accurately and honestly be represented as a "tax-rate cut."

* Your tax-percentage rate is going to go down.
* You're going to get a raise.
* You're going to be able to buy more cool stuff.
* I'm going to benefit from all of this through increased tax-revenues.

("I" = the government speaking, in this case.)

The important part -- the honest declaration that most people want to hear -- is: "your tax rate is going to go down -- you're getting a tax-cut."
