I think the taxation on vehicles and transportation should be directly corrolated to their gas mileage and environmental impact.
For example, public transporation should be untaxed and a low emissions vehicle should be taxed at a lower rate than a hummer.
Here in florida all food items you find in a grocery store are exempt, but prepared food is taxed.
I also think all services should be taxed unless we are talking water or electric. If we get into the realm of trying to decide what special services should be exempt we will quickly find ourselves in another mess like the current tax system where what is exempt is directly related to the political clout of those asking for the exemptions.
