Imagine being an ancap.


You can try to make the case that taxes are necessary. You can't make the case that they aren't theft.


Agreed. The posters here made a fair point that taxes do help your neighbor (i.e. the common good). It does help other people when the money is used properly. Unfortunately, they have not explained how it is not basically a racket, as in similar to the extortion that a gang would force on a shopkeeper for "his own protection." You either pay it or men with guns come to your house and you could end up in a cage, or you flee by leaving town, which is what many here have said is a legitimate option.
