haha! What are you talking about? Taxation is government taking money from people and threatening them with deadly force to do so. How does that have anything to do with "fending for oneself?"

The government is $20 trillion in debt. It spends its monies on blowing up people 3,000 miles away.

I don't think you're looking at the right causation of societal poverties.

Deadly force... Lol. You mean sternly worded letters and eventually wage garnishment. They do not give the death penalty for tax evasion.

What are you talking about? You clearly don't know what happens when you don't pay in the U.S. Wage garnishment is possible, but unpaid back taxes can lead to deadly force if resisting to pay them. The government comes to collect property with liens. Resist those agents who have guns, and you die.

Your argument boils down to the fact that too many people are afraid to resist. Mass compliance does not mean the government doesn't use deadly force. Also, being placed into prison for life is a death sentence - the government is getting to choose where someone dies.

See the following for the fuller discourse:

Resist those agents who have guns, and you die.

If by "resists" you mean initiate force then yes, you might. Everyone has a right to defend themselves, and if you initiate violence they are defending themselves. That is still not a death penalty for tax evasion, that's self-defense on their part.

I agree, and this post is a big fail.
