dagNotes: the absurdity of discourse about taxation

We could very likely get away with taxing only wealthy white conservatives and their allies. Their lives and conversations about their lives are bolstered by the notion they are burdened by every one else and “taxes” are proof of that burden, thus proof of their supposed earned ambition and right to every thing they possess. 

Without taxes how would they know this burden that justifies their social position and unearned wealth?
