In a newspaper column a couple of months ago (I don't remember the
columnist or date) the columnist quoted some second tier Bush
appointee detailing the neo-conservative plan for the budget.
Basically he said the tax breaks and increased spending were designed
to bankrupt the "New Society" programs of the government - forcing
their dissolution.

Ideally I'd like to find that column - but I know this is very vague.
Any reference to this neo-con plan would be helpful.

Is this the article you read?

"The Tax-Cut Con", by Paul Krugman (The New York Times, September 14,
2003)
United for a Fair Economy
http://www.stw.org/econ/taxes/KrugmanTaxCutCon.html

If this is the correct article, or good enough for your purposes, I
would be happy to post it as an answer.

If not, perhaps this article will help you to remember more details
that might help us to find the article that you read.  (For example,
do you have an idea in which newspaper(s) it might have appeared? --
i.e., which newspapers were you reading at the time?)
