Walter Williams on Taxes

Actually, his article is arguing for zero taxes. He says that all redistribution through governmental coercion is morally the equivalent of slavery. He makes no distinction or allowance for taxes for one versus another. His argument is in blak or white and holds together with all the logical force of a five-year old.

Are you sure his point wasn't that slavery was OK as long as slaves were made only to fix the roads and build the pyramids (i.e., slavery turned bad when was used to enrich Southern plantation owners). 'Cause that's where I thought club's logic was going.
