The government has tax policies on just about everything. The purposefully manipulate the free market every minute of the day to control it. Referring to the Pharisees is clever but not the least bit honest.
I don't believe in letting the almighty dollar make all of our nations decisions. I leave that to people that want to legalize and tax prostitution and let our steel industry go overseas if they can do it cheaper. I'm not willing to let the dollar decide our morality, or national defense strategies, or our energy policy. There are bigger factors to consider.
