Taxation Is Robbery

Taking that which is not yours without consent of the owner is theft, regardless of what other label you may place upon it.   Theft under the threat of bodily harm is robbery.

No magic attaches to the label "taxation".  It is, in fact, a rather weak euphemism for robbery.  There is no getting past this, regardless of the justifications forwarded by those who seek to benefit from the fruits of the labor of others, regardless of consent and irrespective of any purport of the authority to do so.   The only magic of the term evidences in the fact that it has been so effective.

The arguments in favor this legitimized robbery are many, all hopelessly rotten lies.  Roads, schools, police, and so forth are used as bludgeons by which free men are subjugated and left poorer in the wake of the taxman.

The only correct "government" is that of the individual. But we are become a race rife with corruption, wanting something for nothing. We want safety, but refuse to make ourselves safe, all the while expecting someone else to provide it for us, preferably at no charge. We want, yet are unwilling to do the work required to have. Rather, we are content to let men with guns threaten our fellows with violence if they fail to fork it over so that yet others will take up their shovels and provide everything nice and shiny while we sit on our well-fed duffs down to a giant feast at the dinner table on the nickels of our neighbors.

We are becoming a race of thieves, so many of us, and it is disgusting.

Until next time, please accept my best wishes.
