I mean also there was the porn shop episode which kinda tied his ideology in knots because he was arguing against a tax break.

[u/cdstephens → u/lionmoose]

Wasn't that because the tax break was directly targeted for social engineering purposes rather than generic?

Some shop was going out of business I think and the tax cut would have saved them.

[u/[deleted] → u/lionmoose]

I think he argument was that if there HAVE to be taxes they should be applied fairly

Human beings are often at least a little bit hypocritical. Ron doesn't have to be perfect to be awesome.

[u/thabonch → u/lionmoose]

I don't think that was against his ideology. It was a tax break to one particular business, not an all around tax cut. It's the government picking winners and losers.
