It wasn’t just about the tax on tea.
I am all for tax advoidence. I do not support tax fraud.
Correct, hence : It was more the attitude than the act

First they gotta get this established, then they can worry about making taxes retroactive to when Algore invented it.
If you drive a car, I’ll tax the street,
If you try to sit, I’ll tax your seat.
If you get too cold I’ll tax the heat,
If you take a walk, I’ll tax your feet.
It’s not a Federal revenue bill, so it can be introduced in the Senate.
The federal government isn’t getting any of the proposed tax, so if it reduces postal revenue then all it’ll do is move revenue from the Feds to the states... which is a virtuous thing IMHO. Most local governments survive on sales tax. The closer that tax is collected to its eventual destination, the fewer hands it passes through, and the larger the portion that actually passes through the system.
Hey, now we’ve closed the circle. We have the small business people complaining about the bill even though it won’t apply to them, and the non-small business people complaining because the small business people are being excluded. If we could get both sides in touch with each other, we could create perpetual motion.
