RE: Why Are Peaceful People Becoming Anarchists?

in #anarchy7 years ago

If you don't pay your taxes you will get a letter from the IRS, you have to be a real asshole about not paying your fair share before anyone with guns shows up to make you. Probably they will just garnish your wages. No guns needed, they can just take it out of your check.

Sort:  

what makes you think you have a right to give the people from the IRS the right to steal the money from my bank account, and if I somehow can prevent that from happening or if I defend myself against your stealing of my wages.

What do you personally advocate should be done to me personally if I don't pay the extortionist (to pay for your extortion service) of the political ruling class. Please be literal and specific.

Because if you are not paying your fair share then you are stealing from those people who are, you are breathing the air right? Do you think clean air is free or happens without government intervention? Have you been to a country without air pollution regulations?
If you don't pay you should have your wages garnished. If you don't like it here you are free to go whenever you want and also free to try to change it.

Because if you are not paying your fair share then you are stealing from those people who are,

People paying extortionist, or slaves obeying a slave master, does not justify an extortion racket, or slavery. It does not follow.

The quality of the air, does not justify extortion or slavery. It does not follow.

If you don't like it here you are free to go whenever you want and also free to try to change it.

Me not going does not justify extorting me.
Having the "freedom" to change an extortion racket or slave system does not justify the system.

If you don't pay you should have your wages garnished.

That is your opinion. And maybe the opinion of millions of others that does not make it right.
I don't have wages so they can't be garnished. What if I worked black and keep my money at home.
What do you personally advocate should be done to me personally if I don't pay the extortionist (to pay for your extortion service) of the political ruling class. Please be literal and specific.

If you go to the bank and slide her a note she'd have to be a real arsehole to not just hand the money over. You probably won't even need to shoot anyone.

I suppose IRS agents do have guns, how many people have they shot? Don't IRS agents have the same right to defend themselves that anyone has?

You seem to be operating under a very narrow definition of aggression; where threats don't count.
If I tell a woman that she needs to sleep with me or I'll lock her in a cage; and she reluctantly sleeps with me, do you consider that rape?
I didn't actually attack her; I didn't have to punch her or throw her to the ground.
From my perspective the whole thing was quite civilised.
If they obey your threats without needing to be attacked, does that still register as coercion?

this would be more along the lines of if a woman wants to be locked in your cage shouldn't she have to pay rent?

There's the crux of it. You believe in countries. No such thing.
