Unfortunately, true.

I'd like to ban all taxes except a sales tax and require all taxing authorities to list their taxes on receipts.  This way people realize exactly how much taxes they are paying. 

 the logic of that is like expecting a bully to start his tirade with listing the ways in which he is going to manipulate his victims tho 

 I never said it was likely, but if I was in charge, that is what I would do because it would be the best of a bad situation. 

 if i was in charge anyone trying to extort people of money would be locked up
