<<And so why not instead tax the "stuff" and not the income? >>

Not sure what you mean here. "Stuff" is taxed....big time, by all levels of government. Real estate, automobiles, boats, plane tickets, hotel bills, phone bills, liquor, fancy cuban cigars....just about everything the rich consume more heavily than poor folks.

Not being too rich myself, I did just return from a lengthy trip down South (Atlanta and a couples places in between) and had to, for convenience, stay in some fairly expensive hotels. Those room taxes were annoying.
