Anyway, I agree that government and taxation are excessive. My only point is that on SOME LEVEL taxes necessary or there will be no government and thus no law and order and thus not prosperity. I wish you guys wouldn't throw this all-or-nothing crap at me all the time.

The example of Kuwait is an anomaly. The royal family owns a piece of desert with a lot of oil on it and happens to pay the people who were born there a lot of money to keep them happy and undemocratic. It won't last forever because the oil will run out someday. Alaska is not a nation it is a state and does not have to pay for national defense or any of the other federal programs its citizens receive.

The whole point was about GE anyway. Since there IS a tax burden it should at least be fairly distributed and breaks not handed out to the least needy at times when there are budget crunch issues.
