I love how you've addressed bunches of logical fallacies here. I know this article will be a huge resource for me as I pronounce taxation as theft to our slumbering brothers & sisters. Thanks, Carry. You always bring much value to me as a TRUTH warrior by filling my quiver with fiery darts with which to burn down the lies our fellow man has been filled with.
Happy Government Theft Day everyone!

Taxation is the price paid by the middle class to appease the really really rich so they keep fattening up
When I lived in Detroit, there was no city snowplow service. So each block had to round up the funds to pay a private plowing company. Most people on my block paid up willingly, but there were of course one or two that didn't, and flatly refused to contribute. Their street still got plowed, because everybody else paid for it. I'm not taking the piss, here, I'm genuinely interested in your solution to that problem.
Social pressure. Sounds like the roads still got plowed
Believe me, the entire block put social pressure on these people. They were not poor or anything, they just refused to participate. So the rest of us had to pick up their slack. If your answer is to shrug your shoulders, then you're missing the point of my question.
Hopefully human nature doesn't screw this up for us again. Remember America used to be free, and then we stopped getting along as much.

The saddest thing about that argument is that, our taxes do not go to pay for our govern-cement. All the money sent to the Infernal Revolting Syndicate is literally thrown into a furnace.
The money is created out of thin air, and back to thin air it goes.
Our current govern-cement is funded by borrowing more money into existence.
I've heard someone say, "taxes aren't the price we pay to live in a civilized country, it's the price we pay because we can't live in a civilized society"
