i disagree with this... the government is not despotic, when it tries to redistribute wealth.
If you want to steal from me, have the guts to do it yourself instead of hiding behind skirts of government.
Redistribution of wealth is 100% the province of despots. Only the idiotic would think that a gov't capable of redistributing wealth will continue to do so in their favor.
the governement behave in the society's favor.
im currently paid by the state to take my education. and when im done with my education i will happily pay taxes, and i will not claim that the government steals from me.
