Re: Higher Cigar Tax Passes in House

I would have to disagree. The entire concept is bad.
This is social medicine on the installment plan.
Socialized medicine does not work. Socializm does not work.
Give people free food, housing, medical care and whatever else and
they will come to depend on it. Then they will despise you for giving it to
them. Then they will riot if you take it away.
Why not tax only the poor? The lower your income the higher your tax rate.
Now you have real incentive to to get off your ass and amount to something.
Trying to appease these people is like pissing your pants to keep warm.
It only works as long as you keep pissing.
