You have to separate out economists doing economics from economists as political advocates. In terms of economists doing economics, I think we will probably be less divided. In the mainstream economics profession there is a growing consensus that although taxes can affect the timing of transaction and that complexities in the code can be a drag, taxes are not a major driver of economic growth.
