We are talking about an optimization relationship, not minimization.
What if this new tax was introduced at the same time as a reduction in other taxes?
I agree also that taxes can be regressive and if we aren't careful, the working poor can get hit the hardest, but I doubt that your concern is offered sincerely here. The Republican party, the party of denying climate change, is also the party of wanting taxes to be flatter regardless of how that might burden the working poor.

No Government does not equal No Freedom. Ever. Any Government equals Reduction of Freedom. Always. The question is the extent to which freedom is reduced.

Right, with no government we can all enjoy the freedom to have no one come investigate who has robbed us or murdered our family members, the freedom to have no-one punish them if we already know who did it, and the freedom to take matters into our own hands in an endless cycle of revenge violence such as could be seen in tribal areas of Pakistan today. Or maybe those tribes with their patriarchs are too much like a government for you.

My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
