    What sane person could support a tax on our labor?

        John, I find it to be interesting how some people who claim to support economic liberty could advocate a tax on income and productivity. Where is the logic in that?

        Weird logic to me that you would punish good behavior. Makes no sense. I have always liked tariffs and consumption taxes. This way everybody pay in to the system and has some skin in the game.
