Did you vote? You are represented. There is no taxation without representation. You are responsible to pay taxes.Except you don't. We elect those who make the tax laws, and if you don't like paying your taxes you're free to move out of yhe country.It's theft because we have almost no say (if any) in how it is spent. If we tried to not pay taxes they (Government) would use force and arrest/fine/imprison us for it. If you doubt this, stop paying all your taxes (if you pay any) and see how far you get.
I win.
That doesn't meet the definition of "consent." It defines an extortion racket, which is still theft.
He hates it because it provides for both freedoms and responsibilities. It's the responsibility part that grates his cheese.
What responsibilities does the Constitution impose on me? Furthermore, when did I agree to them?
As a citizen, you are responsible to vote and pay taxes. You are not compelled, but responsible.

The 16th amendment. It's right there in the constitution. Try reading the document before you claim something else that's patently false.What responsibilities does the Constitution impose on me? Furthermore, when did I agree to them?

You are compelled to pay taxes, but not by the Constitution. What does it mean to claim you are "responsible" for voting?

Using what passes as 'logic' in your little warped world, no living American citizen is bound in any way to the Constitution of the United States.The 16th amendment.

Yeah, the communist party amendment.
I didn't sign the Constitution, so it has no legitimate authority over me.
Still think Big Brother loves you? Well, think again. He only loves your money.
Federal Tax Revenues Set Record Through May; Feds Still Running $436B Deficit
Federal tax revenues continue to run at a record pace (in inflation-adjusted dollars) in fiscal 2014, as the federal governments total receipts for the fiscal year closed May at an unprecedented $1,934,919,000,000, according to the Monthly Treasury Statement.
Despite record revenue, the federal government still ran a deficit of $436.382 billion in the first eight months of the fiscal year, which began on Oct. 1, 2013 and will end on Sept. 30, 2014.
In the month of May alone, the federal government ran a deficit of $129.971 billion--bringing in $199.889 billion in revenue while spending $329.860 billion.
The White House Office of Management and Budget has estimated that in the full fiscal 2014, the federal government will collect $3.001721 trillion in taxes, spend $3.650526 trillion, running a deficit of $648.805 billion.
The OMB has also estimated that, while running that deficit, the federal government will collect a record amount in inflation-adjusted tax revenues.
When adjusted for inflation (to constant 2014 dollars), the second-greatest federal tax haul through May was in fiscal 2007. By the end of May that year, the federal government took in approximately 1.908 trillion in total receipts in constant 2014 dollars...

That still doesn't meet the definition of "consent." I have voted against every tax increase on the ballot and against every politician who said he would raise my taxes. How have I consented to be taxed?

You're a bootlicking drone, so of course you don't "buy it." However, facts and logic indicate that government is indistinguishable from an organized criminal gang.
I don't like when hoodlums use money they stole from me to pay for crack and prostitutes. How does that prove they haven't stolen my money?
Let's see, Big Brother just took in record revenue, yet we're still $18 Trillion in Debt. He's doing a great job huh? I think he should steal more money from the People. It's a wise investment for them, no? Man, you Big Brother-Worshippers really do need to get a grip.
you can't answer the question, can you? let's try again.
why do you believe that taxes collected by a duly elected representative government are tantamount to theft?
Read the definition of theft. Then explain how taxation differs.
Record profits, yet still not enough.
And still the government doesn't have enough revenue.
According to the Libs anyway.
In the era of wage deflation and a struggling middle class, do you think it is inappropriate to "whine" about record profits?The whole "taxation is theft" thing is stupid. It alienates those who preach such nonsense from the rest of the population. We do have taxation with representation.
Now, with that said, it is a sad fact that you will often hear liberals whining about "excess profits" but never "excess taxes".
So I really like this post:
Record profits, yet still not enough.
What's a 'Government Budget?' Thought they scrapped that a long time ago?
we dont have a budget. Congress has not passed a budget in years.
That's actually true.

After all, it was worker's efforts that went into those record profits. Perhaps they could wet their beak after all that hard work.
I'm not talking taxes, I'm talking profit sharing. I'm talking about increasing the wages of the workers who made record profits possible. I'm talking about strengthening the buying power of the middle class consumer, thus stimulating the economy.In the era of wage deflation and a struggling middle class, do you think it is inappropriate to "whine" about record profits?The whole "taxation is theft" thing is stupid.

The imbalance is only partly created by "low" taxes. Taxing the rich more will not solve the underlying causes.
He hates it because it provides for both freedoms and responsibilities. It's the responsibility part that grates his cheese.Why do you hate the US Constitution?
What responsibilities does the Constitution impose on me? Furthermore, when did I agree to them?
I have no choice but to live within my budget, they should also.
When the previous administration maxed out the credit cards, created long term bills and cut your pay by one third, how can you?
The good news is that the rich are making BANK because we create the jobs!!!!

"The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."
You are free to leave the Republic if you feel your income is being unjustly stolen by it. It's not like we have an Iron Curtain keeping you in.
