..who seems to think taxation is redistributive (!!) in the US and elsewhere. Taxation is merely a way of withdrawing money from the economy: it can indeed be redistributive in effect depending on what sectors of society you draw it from. ...Which of course is why we are living in a social democratic paradise right now. See above. Do I want to pay higher taxes to kill more black and brown people in Latin America? To send more Bulgarian arms to Syria? More Toyota trucks to ISIS? No I f*cking DON'T. I live with my guilt every day for that sh*t. - The Government doesn't actually need your tax money to make bombs & guns, so you can chill out on the guilt trip. Carlson is right in this case - he did try to give him a hearing and he screwed it up. Carlson only wanted to discuss the hypocrisy of others: not his own part in the game.
