Spoken like somebody who has never had a taxpayer-funded clusterbomb dropped on their children.

Spoken like someone who likes to speak for someone else using a curious line of reasoning. You don't want to pay taxes because taxes pay for bombs. But they also pay for poor people to get health care (yes, even in the U.S., at least up until now), older people to get health care, and much more.

That is an excuse, not a line of reasoning. The fact that taxes are used for some good things is a really shitty excuse for the misery and slavery that empire casts upon the world.

Furthermore, I have every confidence in people to care for each other as brothers and sisters in the absence of the state. The internet will not tolerate the bombs and the fake money, but it will facilitate health care and, as you say, "much more."

I believe he was pointing the same about your comment, just in reverse.

The fact that taxes are used for some evil things is a shitty excuse for not letting it be used for the good things.

>Furthermore, I have every confidence in people to care for each other as brothers and sisters in the absence of the state.

You are as entitled to that opinion as those who have little confidence in it.
