I agree, why should I get money from the state and then have to pay the Feds an income tax on it while at the same time the state makes an income tax on me. I think if we use the PFD to fund a sensible government is a better option. 
A bonus might be the many poor people that come here just to get the PFD with their flock of kids that also put a burden on the state system. It is a win win to dump the PFD.
