I think its a fact that any taxes are anti-freedom, yet necessary (not to the levels we have now though, IMHO).

Heck, at one point it was unconstitutional to have income taxes. I fully agree with this, as to tax something so necessary as income gives too much power to the government, again in my most-humble-more-philosophical-than-political opinion.
