Someone in a different forum than FR disagreed with me when I said the government uses taxes to control us. What exactly is the purpose of “sin” taxes? Control and revenue.

When the revenue is great enough, the government doesn’t really want you to stop [insert “sinful” behavior here] because it would hurt the revenue stream.
