No Taxation without Representation, does not say no taxes.  The first power in the U.S. Constitution given to Congress is to "lay and collect taxes", limiting that duty with a "Tax Cap" is a serious error.  If a representative or assembly person votes for too much, we the voters can vote against them, however it they vote to raise taxes to build something we want, (for me a cross town bicycle trail in or next to the Alaska Railroad's 200 foot wide right of way) or set up a special health clinic because of a newly understood need, well they would get my vote & the limited support this citizen can bear.   Taxing is one of the most basic powers and repercussions should fall on the "elected representatives" only at the polling booth.
