“Taxes” is the hook to draw in the uninformed rubes; to the hardcore, it’s always been about hijacking the political process to bring about the unholy glibertarian/”conservative” nirvana.
The Tea Party is a dumping ground for disaffected Republicans, convinced that the problem is not that they’re decaying fossils of a bygone era, but rather that they’re the only “sane” ones who realize that the country’s going “down the tubes” and they must destroy America to save it.
