So it's not "fair" that someone has worked hard and made enough to be able to afford a vacation overseas? For maybe a couple of weeks they won't be paying consumption taxes in the U.S. You don't think that the rest of the year the wealthy consume more than the middle class and make up for it?
You are eating with the lights and heat on now. Whats the difference?
I personally would rather decide how much of my hard earned money goes to taxes (by how much I consume) than the present way of things.
BTW, I am enjoying this conversation with you.
