On the Fact that In the Mind of the Regressive, a Carbon Tax Discourages the Use of Carbon, a Cigarette Tax Discourages the Use of Cigarettes, a Gas Tax Discourages the Use of Gas, a Booze Tax Discourages the Use of Booze, but an Income Tax Has Absolutely No Effect on Income Whatsoever

Income - the only thing on the globe that doesn't respond to incentives (at least in their warped universe). Amazing, isn't it?
