Is it okay to take money from someone without their consent? If the answer is No, then how do you explain taxes? Because I never gave my consent for anyone to rob me of my hard earned money. I never said it was okay to steal from my paycheck every month before it even arrives to me in the mail. That's theft.
And please don't feed me this "well taxes pay for services you use". No. If I want a service, I will pay for it voluntarily. Just like when you buy your daily coffee at Starbucks, you pay for that service voluntarily because it's something you value. And that's a nicety. If hospitals and fire stations are "necessities" then why would they not be paid for voluntarily like superfluous things such as Taco Bell and electronics and apparel and whatever else you may spend your income on?
"Taxes pay for the services you take for granted!". I hear that all the time. But even if that were true, it doesn't excuse the theft. If I forcibly take 200 dollars from you and then turn around and use a fraction of that stolen money to provide you with a "good" or "service"-which you didn't ask for, and may or may not want or get use out of-that doesn't excuse the fact that I took money from you under the threat of force.
First, I'm not a "libertarian". Second, you people are morons. This is why you are all slaves and actively and willingly participate in your own enslavement.
