The bottom line is this, the only reason any of us pay taxes is because we would be arrested if we didn't. If that doesn't show the true reality of the situation, then nothing will.

i agree with your bottomline, you couldprolly extrapolate that out to nobody would pay for anything, given their druthers. human nature and all.

maybe i am struggling with not getting the benefit of thinking a tax is slavery as opposed to a social requirement for the area i choose to live in.

what's the reason to look at it as slavery?
