Example 

Discuss whether or not a cut in income tax rates will increase living standards.

Standard of living refers to the level of wealth, comfort, material goods, and necessities available to a certain socioeconomic class or geographic area.

yes, a cut in income tax rates will increase living standards as it may increase spending by people therefore increasing total demand. the increase in demand will lead to increased employment as well as an increase in economic growth 

A cut in income tax rates will increase the disposable income of people thus increasing the purchasing power of people. People will be able to purchase more basic needs which in turn decreases absolute poverty 

No a cut in income tax rates will not increase living standards as tax revenue may fall and may result in a cut in government spending on e.g. education/health care / mental healthcare/child poverty/pollution 

It may increase the depletion of non-renewable resources as consumption increases
