I'm all for lowering taxes but as a libertarian, minarchist I think sales tax should be the least of our concerns. A higher sales tax would make sense in a society without an income tax, you only pay for the amount that you consume and it would be more equal.

ex. You like buying new cars and driving on the public roads, you end up paying more taxes to maintain the roads

So here we have a backward system that's subsidizing the fuck out the corn production industry to produce all of this cheap sugar then, they turn around and raise the price because sugar is killing a lot of poor people who are becoming obese and straining the health insurance system.
At some point, we actually reach the correct free market price sugar would be if the government didn't subsidize the corn/ sugar industry in the first place, but now we still have the cost of healthcare to deal with because the FDA was bribed to recommend a terrible low-fat high carb diet to Americans for years because the sugar industry paid scientist to lie about the health concerns in studies that the FDA used back in the 1960s. https://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/13/well/eat/how-the-sugar-industry-shifted-blame-to-fat.html

Things that are taxed most at the counter right now are products that are killing our society, alcohol, cigarettes, sugar are all products that have caused a huge strain the health care system which is now a publicly subsidized mess.

I hope something cuts down on sugar consumption, sugar has been proven to be just as harmful as alcohol and I'm tired off watching my family and country poison themselves with the shit for "mouth pleasure" everydayt
