re: Taxation is theft. Is there any other way this isnt true??

Yeah, John Locke and all those other people are clearly not the brilliant legal scholar you are. Crimes committed under duress are voluntary, but the voluntary filing and payment of federal income taxes under duress are not voluntary.

No friggin wonder everyone on here that calls themselves a conservative can't even begin to fairly and reasonably discuss tax reform.

Good luck to everyone on here that call themselves a "conservative," after the House plan passes and they find out they're getting a tax increase instead. If they even notice it as most have their taxes withheld and paid for them anyway. Because the majority couldn't save enough to write one check a year. But post incessantly about being libertarian and personal responsibility.

It's so voluntary we should do away with withholding, and make everyone write ne check a year. That would learn a couple people on here a lesson in cold, hard reality.

The reason conservatives and Republicans have been so ineffectual is becuase they waste large amounts of time arguing shite like taxes are theft.
