“Taxation isn’t theft, it’s the price we, each of us, pay for membership in society. It’s the dues of a free people who govern themselves, rather than being governed. By claiming the right to be an American, one must also accede to the obligation they owe to America. Otherwise, the nation fails, the society collapses, and that flag you wave, well, wouldn’t it just be a piece of cloth?”

  18. ilyagerner said: I actually think people who find Marxist theory compelling should be friendlier to the ‘taxes as theft’ argument than liberals. The idea of owning the fruits of your labor underlies the Marxist critique of wage relationships, right?
