Almost everyone agrees that there is some optimal amount of taxation, and just

He's just trying to hedge from his original post and change it to income taxes.

I never said anything about income taxes, and neither did you until this post.

By "edit" I was referring to your subsequent posts "clarifying" what you meant.

I would have no problem claiming a tax break that I didn’t believe should exist.

I don’t want to pay more. I’m fine with everyone else paying more though.

Now it doesn't matter, apparently. As long as taxes get cut, who gives a crap
