Just to make sure I understand what you are saying; you, and many others, are on fixed or low incomes and yet living beyond your means so you need your PFD to make ends meet. And you want to continue that way by taxing MY income. What if the income taxes stretches my own personal budget even though I initially planned accordingly? Are you saying that I should adjust my budget around an income tax to account for your shortcomings so that you can continue buying things that you can't otherwise afford?
