I don't want to tax baby formula. I do not want to tax cigarettes either. but, I would tax both to the degree use imposes costs upon society.
What do you see as the role of tax policy? Do you think the point is to redistribute wealth? Punish? Encourage/discourage your pet issues of the day? What?

The problem is that there is no consistency in your approach to tax policy, nor can you clearly define the role you think tax policy should play in our society. I think for some reason you fear openly saying what you really believe on this subject. I wonder why.
