Who is telling you where to work? What profession you're in? Where you will eat lunch? Who you are allowed to associate with?
I order for it to be less confusing, perhaps the article could have said "government prescribed behavior in almost every aspect of life" and I claim the delta is not negligible.
Taxation is not theft.
- mantas 4y agoWell, to be honest, people were allowed to pick a profession. And you had some wiggle room to pick your placement and change works later on. And you were allowed to drink in your kitchen with whoever you want. Although if KGB noticed you were partying with known dissidents or on certain days (e.g. independence day of the republic that was then occupied by soviets)... you'd be, let's say, cancelled :) Or if you kids had poppy seeds in dental inspection that was accidentally held on christmas day...
- codr7 4y agoWhy? Because the state is doing the stealing? Or because people been programmed to accept it? I wouldn't mind sharing my money if it was actually put to good use by competent people, but that's far from the case in any country I've lived in.
