Why Libertarians have more integrity and intellectual honesty than Republicans and Democrats
voluntary taxation:

“Throughout the ages, the emperor has had a series of pseudo-clothes provided for him by the nation’s intellectual caste. In past centuries, the intellectuals informed the public that the State or its rulers were divine, or at least clothed in divine authority, and therefore what might look to the naive and untutored eye as despotism, mass murder, and theft on a grand scale was only the divine working its benign and mysterious ways in the body politic. In recent decades, as the divine sanction has worn a bit threadbare, the emperor’s “court intellectuals” have spun ever more sophisticated apologia: informing the public that what the government does is for the “common good” and the “public welfare,” that the process of taxation-and-spending works through the mysterious process of the “multiplier” to keep the economy on an even keel, and that, in any case, a wide variety of governmental “services” could not possibly be performed by citizens acting voluntarily on the market or in society.

payroll tax rates

Tax rates will be tied to party affiliation!!!
When you go shopping, you show your voter registration card. The Democrats can be charged 70% tax, the Republicans will pay a fair 4% tax.
When you buy gas, show your voter card. Democrats will pay an extra /gallon as a "highway tax". Republicans will pay nothing extra.
When you buy food, show your card. Democrats can pay for THEIR groceries, and enough for 5 other families. Republicans will pay nothing, but remain free to give (as they always have) to charities in record numbers.
On each paycheck, Democrats will pay an extra 10% payroll tax. Republicans will pay nothing.
EVERYONE WINS !!!!! Everyone gets their way and can REJOICE in knowing they are participating in the system at a rate they "believe in".
