So, let me get this straight...
You believe that the States have no authority to impose taxes upon the citizens of the state, correct?
Do you believe that only the Federal Government has the authority to impose taxes?
Do you believe that as the tax collector and therefor disburser of those taxed monies that the Federal Government knows best where to spend the dollars, which roads, which state parks, which broken sewer mains in every hamlet, village, town, burg, and city of the nation require maintenance?
Do you believe that the Federal Government is the best determiner of how much of a tax burden any particular community should be forced to bear?
Oh, and in respect to respecting your opinion....
I don't have to respect your opinion any more than I have to respect the opinion of a devout Muslim that women who have been raped are adulteresses and should be stoned, or that homosexuality should be punished by throwing people off the tops of tall buildings.
