Correct. I would start by saying taxation should be correlated to the actual costs to society for activities that can not be assigned to specific people or groups. Hence, in my view taxes should not support things like PBS, or perhaps that the HS grad making $80,000 a year busting his a$$ spending weeks away from home driving a truck should not have his tax dollars used to support folks going to a university so they can graduate, get high paying white collar jobs and then look down on blue collar workers. Things like that is where I would start.
