I disagree, we have way too many taxes, so many that I can’t even keep track. How pathetic is that? A few that come to mind are gas, Income (both state and local in PA), property, sales, tobacco, alcohol, school, local, SS, FICA, captical gains, not to mention all the indirect taxes, inspection, registration, title fees, etc. Libertarians propose to simplify this.
You may think it’s a pipe dream, but that’s only because you’ve been indoctrinated with the philosophy that a complex situation/problem cannot be solved with a simple solution (let alone a simple problem). Historically speaking, the more complex a solution, the less effective it is, I won’t even get into the amount of waste associated with an overly complex solution. Take a look at any social support system in this country, and it will prove that to be true.
