No, the government does not point a gun at my head if I don't pay taxes. I go to court, then I would go to jail.
What happens if you don't want to go?

You do not want to pay taxes because you are greedy.
It's not greed to not want to be robbed.

It's telling that you decided not to respond to these points:
If it is used correctly, in a way so that it can combat societies problems, sure, sign me up.
You know, it's funny. I never hear about international charities blowing up families in the desert. But organizations that get their funding by taking it from people against their will, those organizations do blow up people. You don't suppose that might be because those charities would lose funding if they did?

Now of course its not like this, so yeah, I fucking hate paying tax's to fund bullshit, but that does not make tax, or in my ideal, what tax should be about, wrong. We just need to get it working properly.
Yeah, by taking the force out of the equation.

To say nothing of "self-ownership."

I didn't reply to them because they are totally irrelevant to what i'm saying. Your talk of international charities is a strawman,  no thanks.

Explain to me why robbery is so bad?

Self ownership? Sounds like an off shoot of some Rand bullshit.
