When you pay a tax at the grocery store, you've already gotten the money and know when you are paying it out.
And then what, stop buying groceries?...Oh wait I know, we can complain to tax loving deaf ears in Congress.

You'll have greater disposable personal income than before, but you can always become politically active and pound on your congresscat.

That is the point. If you live in a state with no income tax, your purchasing power keeps taxes low and the government honest. They can't increase spending willy nilly because there is a limited amount of money to go around. For conservatives, the key to limiting spending is to eliminate the income tax system that makes runaway spending possible in the first place.
