"Taxation is theft" is the rallying cry of the overprivileged who want to feel like victims for once.

  Completely false, and an attempt at character defamation while sidestepping the facts. A primary human right is you own the fruits of your labor. Period.

    Equating people's income with "the fruits of their labor" is ridiculous. (Might as well claim that the government's income collected through taxes is the fruits of the government's labor.)

      My income is the fruit of my labor... That not really disputable... I'm not working for free.
      • DarylZero 4y ago
        It's very unrealistic, one might say childishly naive, to assume that this is how income is distributed.

          They have a word for that: Slavery.

            Of course, you wouldn't have such ideas in your head in the first place, if you were capable of listening to other people.

    You’re claiming that it is a human right to not pay any taxes? I have a hard time imagining there’s much basis or precedent under international law to support such a position
