I was surprised at this one. I figured more would be onboard. Granted, measuring the popularity of any tax will probably result in a lot of "no" responses.

It's poll questions like this that ought to make a person question the value of pure populism.

The fact that no won makes me believe that it is effective, since many people I assume will just answer no because they hate that they have to pay a Tax for anything.

Also conservative propaganda definitely influences the results.
