Its not silly it is the crux of the issue that you evade.
Tell me, what happens if you don't go along with govt nudges? Don't they fine you or sanction you in someway? And if you continue on this path, refuse to pay your fines and continue to disobey what happens? A man with a gun will come and take you to jail. It is that simple.
- Frondo 11y agoDon't pay your taxes? They'll issue a levy or a lien or garnish your paycheck. That's not "a man with a gun". That's a totally non-violent way to collect their taxes. Invoking the violent image of "a man with a gun" is a childish way to make the down-to-earth subject of tax collection into an emotional, fear-based thing.
