"re: "some of it is better spent together" While literally true, this ignores the distinction between government "taxation" (i.e. theft) and voluntary fundraising for whatever project individuals might wish to support together as a non-state association. There is no reason for any tax because there is no such thing as a service that can only be provided by means of a monopoly that claims a fraudulent ability to make law and which perpetuates itself by robbery and threats." - Brad Spangler
