Why not?

Conservative leaders sat on asses giving these people everything else.

But hey, they got to act like the smartest people in the room right? :)

Well we need a poll tax to stop people who vote for these morons from doing further violence to our republic.

Just another in a long train of abuses and usurpations pursuing invariably the same object...

The possibility that these people will be re-elected by the hardcore fourty-per-centers is absolutlely amazing.

(Not to mention the Independents who like to consider themselves brilliant, who are swayed by the slightest breeze to vote Progressive.)

IMHO

The Central Government has too much power? Agreed? Solution:

Abolish all FEDERAL transportatiOn taxes and sin taxes on gasoline, tires, airplane landings, alcohol, tobacco, guns, etc. ... but effective date 5 years in the future.

Abolish the Dept of Transportation, except maybe for NTSB.
Abolish the ATF. Transfer ATF field employees to FBI.

Tell all collectors of taxes (energy companies, airports, liquor distributors, etc) to collect the FEDERAL tax for the next 5 years and pay it directly to the state in which collected.

The states have 5 years to pass a replacement tax (or not).

Losers: Beltway politicians and lobbyists.
Winners: Blue states that pay more in taxes than they receive in appropriations.
Red States that chafe at DC imposing one-size-fits-all rules on them.
Mass-transit lovers, who pretty much are concentrated in states where they have the political power to control the money.
Truck drivers, commuters, everyone who drives.
State legislators, governors
Groups like ALEC that lobby at the state level.
Freedom lovers.
Those seeking economic growth and prosperity.
