Carrier Battle Groups should be able to be financed entirely by the beneficiaries. That’s a traditional way of doing things.

You previously said: Carrier battlegroups don’t sail for free. (as an argument against a form of taxation that doesn't generate as much revenue as the current income tax)

Huh?

It takes a special form of lunacy to state that the words; Carrier-battlegroups-don’t-sail-for-free is an argument for or against any form of taxation.

It is simply a statement that there will be taxation.

Well, I re-read what you wrote and you are right I read too quickly and misunderstood a simple point. But . . . lunacy? Isn’t that overstating things a bit?

[Last Dakotan]

Ok, you’re not a lunatic.
