We both know that "robbery" was a figure of speech, but for the sake of the discussion, I can rephrase it another way. Whether state(s) should be in the business of "producing things" is for another debate, but it's not controversial to claim that they should be in the business of taxing things. Now, you can go about taxation the stupid way, collecting unreasonable amount of money from the wrong people/companies for the wrong things. Or you can do it the smart way. CCCTB is the smart way. I'm not that I'm against making money. But making money should be taxed, preferably the smart way.
