I Hate Taxes

"Taxation is the price we pay for failing to build a civilized society. The higher the tax level, the greater the failure. A centrally planned totalitarian state represents a complete defeat for the civilized world, while a totally voluntary society represents its ultimate success." Mark Skousen

Taxation is theft.

Umm, “taxation” and “a centrally planned totalitarian state” are two vastly different things. The American revolution, for instance, wasn’t fought to gain freedom from taxation, but rather to ensure that those who were taxed would have representation and input into how those taxes were assessed and what they would be spent on. If you think that millions of humans can just voluntarily engage in the planning and funding of infrastructure projects, defense and mass public safety and health initiatives then you don’t have a very good understanding of humans.
