Read fucking Adam Smith, dumbass.It was legal to own people as well. This is not a discussion of right or wrong. Taxes are legal which means they are, by definition, not theft.It was genocide. And let me help with the legal versus illegal part.A compulsory contribution. IE. pay or be throw in a cage, regardless of whether you agreed or not.
That is theft.
Being legal or not makes zero difference on issues like this. By your standard holocaust wasn't murder.
Killing man is murder unless of course, it's in self-defense. Legal - illegal. It makes all the difference in the world.
As as you've been told, if you don't want to pay for the privileged of being an American, then get the fuck out and stay out. It's not like we need your sorry ass.
In Nazi Germany it was perfectly legal to line Jews up before the gas ovens and march them in. So that distinction obviously has no moral implications.
And, yes, you've delivered your chest thumping exhortations numerous times already. So far the upshot of all of them put together is zip, zero, nada.
You lose, now STFU or get out.
Yes, it is a discussion about what's right or wrong. Why would theft be illegal if it wasn't wrong? The only question that remains to be answered is why taxes should be legal.
No taxes, no capitalism. And you have the option to live as you wish, if you leave, which you don't have the stones to do so you whine instead, like a child.
Apparently this is your conception of rational debate. Adam Smith never provided a moral justification for taxation, and neither have you. You never will because you simply aren't capable of it.
