[Publius6961]

The power to tax is the power to destroy.

What better example can there be?
Call something "legal" but tax it into disuse.

Life imitates satire?
Not funny.

If there is any "equal protection" clause in the constitution, it is certainly easily ignored.
What will be next?

[Madame de Winter]

Tax it into disuse? I don't think so. Remember the Whiskey Rebellion of a couple hundred years ago?

Didn't moonshine really make Burt Reynold's career as a fast driving actor?
