Not always. Some taxes provide services that increase freedom. For example, taxes that support schools that provide a good education for anyone, regardless of wealth. Without that, the children of poor families certainly don't get the same opportunities as the children of wealthy families. There are other examples. -- Erik Reuter http://www.erikreuter.net/ _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
