But it's not a moral issue for me, and I like the booze taxes. So you're wrong.
This is the standard "invalidate anybody else's opinions that are different than mine" schtick that is so popular here/
You think that your ideas are SO right, that to have a difference of opinion, people must be unreasonable (people who get off on telling other people what they can do).
I assure you, there's plenty of non-religious, alchohol drinkers who think alchohol should be taxed at a higher rate than the sales tax. That's not a controversial idea.
