You feel that way despite the fact that Halliburton earned their
income from the US government?


Larry, your fixation with 'Haliburton' demonstrates
you can't think rationally.

In your ideal world, how would the US government be funded?


If its functions were limited to those specified by the
Constitution it would be funded by various excises taxes
and that's it.

You seem to forget the fact the government functioned fine
without income tax for the first 150 years of its existance.
