for US and PH citizens, the liability attaches to the person
yeah, that's a problem
that is not the wage slave argument at all
i wouldnt mind being a slave as long as i got food and a place to sleep its not like thats much different from what some people have nowadays
citizen = serf
No representation without taxation.
perhaps I am not familiar with the wage slave argument
what is it?
its the commie labour theory of value argument
not the libertarian tax is theft argument
oh, right - yeah, this is not the wage slave argument
and it's not really the taxation is theft argument, either
it's more a proof that we are chattel property of the state argument
Except tax doesnt constantly impose force and you can still make chooses of your own will on a far much larger scale
Communism is just a scuffed form of ancapitalism, change my mind
Which is just tax is theft, taken to its edgyest extreme.
tax only employs force when necessary
when seizing property to auction, for example
Tax is theft yeah
Tbf if you've seen all the horsecrap the government spends on Id agree with the radical libertarians who want to abolish taxes
@paradigm If I mug someone it doesnt make them my property
Same with taxation
Involuntary tax should demolished
@Existence is identity if the results of your labor are my property, do I not have an ownership interest in you?
we have voluntary tax - it says so in the name of the act
heh
Except I have a choose in other things besides that
I can choose how to earn it and what I eat
ok - so I only have a 40% stake
but that's still quite a lot
Yeah its wrong but im a slave
The government is a looter that is comparable to a gang
It'll probably be a better investment to give money to a mafia
I guess we should define what is the standard for something to be considered a slave
More local, no legal crap
If you can choose between the mafia and the state for protection, you have a free market in government, and you're halfway to ancapistan.
Tbf people already do that. Isnt legal ofcourse
But if people have to do that then there must be flaws in the state that they need fixed, so they fix it with their money
The flaw in the state is it's existence.
until someone has a working replacement, the state will remain necessary
and when there is a working replacement.... it will probably look quite a lot like a state
Do you guys think they will riot in Paris this weekend?
