Me either but since uncensored brought it up, I just wanted to let him know he was mistaken. No one is picking anyones pocket. If you work its deducted from your paycheck.Funny I don't remember reading that in the Constitution. Maybe the members of society don't want to have their pocket picked to send the dolt down the street to college.You sound desperate. What social contract would that be? My contract says that i pay taxes to pay my share in bettering the country.Then why do you pay taxes? According to you the government is stealing from you. Stand up for yourself and dont pay your taxes.
Intelligent people know taxes are part and parcel of a capitalistic society. You should become more intelligent.
Ah, you are a desperate twit with no argument.
Paying taxes does not mean acquiescing to every corrupt scheme a crooked politician cooks up to buy votes. The social contract says nothing about using the wealth of some to buy the votes of others.
"an implicit agreement among the members of a society to cooperate for social benefits, "
The contract of which you speak is written where? I didn't sign that contract. Taking money I didn't authorize out of my paycheck is stealing. Now I do pay my taxes to pave my roads so I don't get a flat tire and provide other essential services like police and fire protection as well as the armed forces. I believe every child should have a basic education I.E. K-12. I even believe children should be fed in school because they can do nothing about the circumstances in which they live. Once you hit 18 however you're an adult and you can do for yourself. That means higher education. We should not be forced to pay for adult education. Let those who want higher learning work and pay for it themselves. I don't see why money should be taken out of my pocket to provide for an able bodied person.
