THE CASE FOR TAXING ANY AND EVERYTHING ...

We need to trim government, not add more disposable income to the beast!

Economists are one trick ponies, that although we need their opinions, we don't necessarily want to see their pro-taxing rants in print...

Why not tax every bank and credit card fee? We have nothing to lose but the eight and nine figure CEO salaries. While we are at it why not add a windfall profits tax on interest that is more than 20% above the prime rate? Remember these fees have helped make "too big to fail" banks possible.
