Same. I stopped at taxes. And taxes are needed unless we want a complete anarchy.
The question is not whether taxes are needed. It is whether or not stealing is immoral even if called something else.
If you feel that stealing is necessary for society, fine...like Malcolm X saying that the ends justify the means. It is still immoral.
Having a bunch of small, independent communities that are vulnerable to one-man rule and aggression against their neighbors is even less moral, isn't it? Forced taxation is probably the least immoral way for a nation to cooperate.
I have a hard time understanding exactly how those communities would come about. The State (catchall term for all things government-related, as i've learned) frowns upon stuff like that, afaik. Sure, there's a pile of problems once things get rolling, but i can't even see past inevitable instabaning by government thugs.
