Hey it's a vice and no one has a natural right to be able to purchase alcohol without being taxed. If you don't want to pay the tax, don't but the alcohol or make yoour own. It's your choice. I got not problem making it more expensive to drink alcohol, more than a drink a day, and alcohol isn't good for you.

Great, mind if I tax your internet? How about tripling your gasoline tax?

Then I guess you approve of removing the laws banning distilling your own spirits?

No, the government has no natural right to legislate our life styles.

Government supportive nanny staters have no right to call themselves a "realpatriot". Please change your monikor to more accurately reflect your views.

A real patriot like the great brewer Samual Adams would be ashamed to be seen in your company.
