While you may believe you have, I did not perceive that you had asked that question previously.

"what makes you think that taxing income earned by working or investing is 'moral'?"

It was passed through the Constitutional process. Vetting it through the ratification process is significant evidence that Americans felt it was moral. I do not feel a need to review the morals at this time. The amount that the government may be allowed to take may be worthy of discussion on moral grounds.

"Guess you just feel more comfortable making up your own questions, and then 'answering' them... instead of engaging in a two-way conversation."

You might try some pants that do not bind you as much. It might brighten your outlook and attitude. <g>
