Absolutely! Unfortunately, not something the small government voters understand (from my experiences living in a conservative area). Simultaneously sabotaging funding for public services through tax cuts while also criticising the lack of service from the same sectors. E.g. Hospital staff funding cuts leading to ramping. Guess which one they care about; the cause or the result.
But given the option between giving tax breaks to the upper echelons or the masses I’m choosing the many over the few.
Plus A3 lead to the smelters multiplayer level being included in the AvP2 game and was (at least from memory) great.
