No, it's about your viewpoint on taxation and how it's a pointless task to try and reason with a person that takes that stance. "Respecting the lives of others" doesn't preclude taxation to any rational person. | ||

Wrong. Theft or robbery is never justified, no matter what name you give it or how you paint and pretty it up and try to pretend that it's just. The fact of the matter is, you're sticking a gun in somebody's face and demanding money, to be used for your own selfish purposes, or under some pretense of "the public good." That's a crime. You are a criminal. Hear the words of a man much wiser and better than you:
The people you call "rational" are in fact slaves, just like you. That's what you were bred to be, for countless generations. Today you are capable of nothing else but blind, loyal obedience to your owners. You're a crab in a bucket, dragging any other crab back in who dares to attempt escape."Rationality" is not a concept your type is actually familiar with. You are incapable of any kind of independent life or thought. Every single "thought" you have was programmed into your mind. Real, actual freedom scares the shit out of you. The only purpose of your meager existence is to make your owners more wealthy and powerful. When you no longer serve this purpose, you will be discarded--tossed into the fire and forgotten, like a burnt out cigarette stub. That's not long off now. | ||
