If they are truly just the fruits of your labor, and the society contributed nothing, you are free to move to a zero-tax third world country and live there.
And if society did contribute more to your work than these taxes cost — which it likely did, considering you didn't move to a third world country yet — then society is free to take its fair share in return.
- mopenstein 3y agoWhy is coercion the chosen course and not voluntarism? I actually like your reply the most. You almost proudly admit to being in favor of violence against your fellow man but didn't quite get there. I'll help finish your thought: > then society is free to take its fair share in return. And if you don't give up what society thinks is fair, then society will imprison you and if you resist their agents, society will authorize them to kill you.
- kuschku 3y agoYou are again free to leave. It's a relatively simple social contract. If you take something from society, you'll have to pay for it. If I go into a walmart and take products off the shelf, Walmart also expects that I'll pay, and will enforce that under threat of violence. I'd gladly switch to a voluntarism based society, but it turns out the vast majority that claims to support voluntarism just wants to take advantage of society without paying for it.
