Your “income” is a direct measure of how much talent, skill, and work you put INTO the economy and society. To tax/punish this is inherently wrong.

However, there is no such moral wrong taxing based on what you consume, especially if you are not taxed on what you consume in order to live.

Well said MrB. Why are we punishing productivity?

Consumption tax bump.
