That’s not really a valid argument against “taxation is theft”.

As a citizen born in a country, you never enter into an agreement that the government should be able to take a cut of all of your transactions, but that’s what happens and refusal to partake results in violence (an arrest and time in prison).

It’s no different than the local mob going around giving beatdowns to get protection money from businesses. The people that voted for the government sure think it’s different, but it’s not much different to the people who didn’t.

There is a reason they had to put the ability to tax right in the constitution. And there is also a reason the US is no longer part of Britain.

No, but you also don't have to partake in the economic system, that is your choice.

It's easy to establish the duty to pay your taxes even using "freedom of contract". By stepping foot on a public road, you accepted the terms and conditions.

Market extremism is a funny thought experiment, but ultimately absurd.

I agree that taxation isn't necessarily theft, as part of the social contract, but aren't property rights at least in some cases fundamental?
