>collectively consent
what the heck does that mean? if enough people gang up and decide to do abuse a victim, it then counts as consent? can you also rape somebody and get away with it if enough people agree with you? I mean I don't recall ever voluntarily signing an agreement to pay taxes. I am forced to do so by the government.

Are you one of those people who suggest simply being born puts you under a social contract in which you have no say one way or another? Do you not see how this goes against the whole concept of consent?

it depends. If they spend the taxed money on common benefit (police, firefighter, military, roads, bridges...) then its ok. when they give it to parasites (who never did nor will work) then it is theft.

Taxation is theft when it is directed against ordinary working class and middle class people with salaries.

Taxation is redistribution when it is aimed landlords, bankers, corporate executives, and oligarchs who have perverted the legal system into a system of theft against the common man.

>getting into an argument over semantics

By living in a society, you consent to abide by their rules, laws, regulations and taxes. If you don't like it, you can leave. No one is forcing you to stay.

It may be theft, it may not. That's a stupid philosophical debate that solves absolutely nothing. I used to give a shit like you. I used to be a faggoty libertarian like you. Then i looked at the white genocide happening, and i realized i don't give a shit about "muh taxes" or money in general when my people risk being eradicated from the face of the Earth.

ironically enough, privatization would solve wildfires. all you have to do is privatize the forests.

if somebody owns a forest, then he'll do his best to make sure it doesn't burn down. A logger for example would lose a precious resource of all his trees burned down. Wildfires are only an issue because they mostly happen in public land, which just like all things government sucks at administrating.

I think people should choose to pay for taxes. Those who choose not to should have no right to use roads or any public facilities. You walk everywhere and if you need to piss you do it on the side walk like the animal you are. Easy.

If a guy robs you at gunpoint but then gives the money to charity, is it no longer robbery? Is stealing from the rich to give to the poor no longer theft, because those poor guys really need it? If a guy breaks into your house and steals your furniture, but leaves behind a pair of shoes, is it no longer theft because he gave you got something in return? Saying theft no longer qualifies as so depending on what the forfeited goods are used for doesn't stack up. You still don't have consent, which is the key part.

does being born qualify as consent? if a cell-phone company automatically signs you up for a lifelong contract without asking, but gives you the option of paying a $10,000 op-out fee, is it consensual? like you said, you can always opt-out later, right? and it gives you a service, whether you want it or not.

you are giving special treatment to the government here. in no other case could these scenarios count as fair and just, but government for some reason gets a free ride and have people defending it. whether or not it's a good deal is irrelevant -- all definitions still put it out as a criminal and immoral act.

Better, but still stupid. Presumably there was some good resource-based reason why the rural areas weren't electrified. Instead of shifting resources to make everywhere equal, we should have retained our resources in their most productive configuration to maximize the capital base for future economic growth.

does the government decide morals? so if it's illegal it is also immoral, and vice-versa? religion, personal convictions, common sense, and personal philosophy mean nothing, and right or wrong is purely decided government officials and the court system?

that's an awfully bleak philosophy to follow. Even on this board, I find most people have their own higher set of principles which doesn't rely upon figures out authority. For example, is feminism correct and moral because it is pushed by the government? most would disagree.
>>
>>135178058
Since certain services such as police, fire fighters, EMTs, and public education require trained individuals why not allow tax-payers to decide where their money goes?

Instead of politicians doling it out to their family foundation for "humanitarian aid" John Q Public could do his taxes every year, see how much is owed on federal and state level, then decide which programs get how much of the total amount of taxes owed.

Say you make $50,000, end up owing $12,000 to the federal gubbamin. Instead of just sending them a check (like we currently do) I propose every tax payer be granted the agency to determine where that money goes.

It's not theft when done properly.

If a county board is doing a good job they'll be awarding snow-plowing/school bus/trash collection contracts to the company that offers the services at the lowest price. If that company underbids and the county board gets burnt they'll have to suck it up and wait for the next vote or hold an emergency session to offer another contract to a more competent business.

In some cases it is a bigger cost saving to the tax power to have a municipality provide a service.

The idea that people working a 9-5 will go out and buy a bunch of tar at Home Depot to pave their pot-hole ridden road has never made much sense to me. When electing public officials you are essentially hiring somebody for a job to make sure shit is getting paved and maintained, trash is getting collected, and the local school isn't falling apart.

>does the government decide morals?
No. Morals aren't real. Government decides law, which is real. Law is a system of threats of violence against anyone within the domain of the authority who breaks the laws set forth by the authority. An action cannot be moral or immoral. But it can be legal or illegal. The problem comes from people abstracting the concept of law and then pretending it is a universal moral system.

Why do Ancaps and Lolbergs refuse to understand how the concept of credit based currency?

Taxation is as voluntary as any other capitalist contract. Taxation is as voluntary as insurance.

The government has no resources but has to perform public services like border security and running courts to resolve property disputes.

So how does it get the resources without without drafting by force?

By doing on a credit basis and creating a market based system for those credits.

The central government authorizes the printing of an IOU credit that always the holder of the notes/currency to surrender those IOUs come tax day rather than have give us real resource on that day like the prior feudal economy did with physical harvests which is logistical nightmare for advanced economy.

As a result of this deal, private contractors and the people voluntarily exchange real goods and services to the government for those IOU credits directly with government and via subcontractors.

The result is a public sector which everyone benefits from via courts, common army, and other public goods.

At the ends of year, the government sends out a invoice or tax bill like every other business, except to everyone because everyone benefits from public goods.

As result, everyone accept working for the IOUs i.e. common currency through the market to get enough of those IOU so that they don't have to surrender real and services to the government directly and by force because they owe a certain amount for the benefit of public goods they receive.

There is no force involved here...it is a simple loan for credit, contract for services, redemption of credits contract. Many Many private business do the same with various forms of firm shares and credits.

If you had a kid and wanted to see that they were educated here are your options assuming you make $55K a year at a job that requires you to be there from 8A-6P with a 40 minute commute.
Hard mode: Single Parent
1) Home school; will you be able to stay up and focus to make sure your kid is getting night schooled in between your time at the office?

2) Hire a tutor: Tutor costs $40K a year. Lives with you, provides their own meals and transportation, is willing to look after your kid. This leaves you with $15K a year to buy clothing, gas, housing, food, and an internet connection to post on a mongolian watercolor board.

3) You get 8 neighbors together, each has a kid or two of their own, and you all chip in $5K to hire the same tutor from scenario 2. The tutor is fine with looking after that many kids and agrees to work for $40K/year to tutor 10 children. You just saved $35,000 dollars.

Yes. It is called currency monopoly on the payment of taxes as per the constitution. Basic history lessen. Under the Articles of Confederation, state couldn't agree on spending taxes to a central government so the British and French were counting on the Confederation to break apart but then Ben Franklin and Hamilton decided that we need a Union and Federated govern to collect the taxes and provide for a common defense with the States infighting.

Have you never read the Hamilton's; "Report on Public Credit?

Fun fact. The original income tax was something like 2%, and only for the duration of a war to fund that war.

"Give them an inch, they take a mile."

Govt just kept taking taking taking and no one stopped them. Where is middle class america going? Where is the money going? Kikes.

Remove all gibs. Gas the budget, tax wars now. Taxation IS theft and that's why the IRS goes after anyone who questions them. The current US government is nothing but a cartel running a damned racket.

If you stay in society, you consent implicitly to have a part of your production (income now but it used to be anything like food,commodities or materials) taken to take care of common services, which you also benefit.

If you do not consent to this, you need to remove yourself from society to remain ''morally correct''. Not doing so and not paying taxes would mean you are taking something that you didnt pay for. That's theft.

You are semi-correct. The Federal Reserve is the public-private partnership based somewhat on the EU model where the central Bank is "Independent" controlled by private interest which the State Contract for the use of the currency.

However, the United States has a much more open ended contract with says that the Fed has to provide enough funds to the "Open Market" to force the buying of all Federal Bond auctions. By law, Treasury Bond Auction can never fail so there is no Bond Market in the Austrian which why Peter Schiff types are always wrong in predicting the Bond collapse that never happens. They don't understand that there is "NO FEDERAL BOND MARKET" because the price is manipulated until they are cleared.

However, I agree that this so-called "Fed Independence" is corruption and needs to end. We must go full Hilter and Nationalize the Federal Reserve and Hang the Kike Banksters.

No Idiots. They create the currency like any other bank by typing credits into databank ledger thus creating reserve which are then deposited.

Reserves create deposits ask any one who has worked for a Bank which refutes all Austrian Economics which is entirely backwards with exogenous money creation when modern money is entirely endogenous which why the Japanese are always facing higher deflation rather than inflation everytime they increase their massive National Debt exactly opposite of the Libertardian theory predicts because they have the process of money creation backwards.

How many men? is a thought experiment used to demonstrate the concept of taxation as theft. The experiment uses a series of questions to posit a difference between criminal acts and majority rule. For example, one version asks, "Is it theft if one man steals a car?" "What if a gang of five men steal the car?" "What if a gang of ten men take a vote (allowing the victim to vote as well) on whether to steal the car before stealing it?" "What if one hundred men take the car and give the victim back a bicycle?" or "What if two hundred men not only give the victim back a bicycle but buy a poor person a bicycle, as well?" The experiment challenges an individual to determine how large a group is required before the taking of an individual's property becomes the "democratic right" of the majority.

The fact you can't comprehend that one road to each location or 500 roads to each location doesn't make a difference is demented.
You are still being forced, by the necessity to get to your location, to drive down someone else's road. The only way around that would be to build your own road across unclaimed land; which as we already established, cannot happen once all the land is claimed.

I'm a libertarian too, but taxation is only theft when it is unequal and provided to individuals rather than the community. There is a necessity for many publicly funded institutes, including our roadways, prisons, and military, but there are many that are unneeded as well. All in all, in the us as it stands now, taxation is largely theft.

Given this assessment, how do you characterize the fact that the US deficit is many times larger than GDP and therefor it's impossible for the government to even tax you at a rate appropriate for all the public services provided?

As a libertarian surely you believe in paying for what you use, could you not argue you are actually indebted to the US government?

Why do you think I stated that our current taxation is theft? We spend money ceaselessly involving ourselves in saving and helping countries that could give two shots about us. We publicly spend money on pointless tasks, such as the Space program. We hand out entitlements like hotcakes while bringing in millions a year who take them. We are failing because our priorities are fucked, and our politicians realize that short sided favors are the best way to wrangle votes.
In my opinion, the way to solve this is by a much more thorough constitution that details the limitation of government involvement in the personal life of its citizens, and in its spending on individuals.

You can of your own volition, disconnect from the infrastructure and go live where humans won't find you for 100 years, however you choose to sit around surrounded by infrastructure created by your society while proclaiming "well it wasn't my choice to be surrounded by all this awesome shit other people built".

It's illegal to live of the grid. Even living alone you will be found, taxed, or imprisoned. There is no longer a place to escape. Your naive to think so.

And that's the lack of understanding you have about my views. Nothing in this world is free, but the government shouldn't own what other people made. Did the US invent the automobile? Did it invent the plane? Did it create all those 'awesome things other people built'? No. Those were individuals and groups of individuals who should be rewarded for what they did, but a middle man who can't be even close to effective should have no role in that rewarding.
What we do need that middle man for is to ensure our legal systems and our military and protection dont sell us out.

I am asserting that society has done you well too, not only does it to this actively, there are at least 800 years of structural societal reforms which have led us to this point which you're so quick to reject (at least philosophically, because as you stated above you're not really willing to actually follow your ideology to its logical conclusion despite it being completely within your power to do so).

>Did the US invent the automobile? Did it invent the plane? Did it create all those 'awesome things other people built'? No. Those were individuals and groups of individuals
Yeah they're called "white people" or "europeans", I expect you are one, why do you hate the successes of your ancestors? This kind of self loathing is pretty sad, and perhaps the reason you project this irrational hate of all structure.

Taxation cannot be theft because taxation (and money, by extension) is an artificial concept created by your government. If you don't want to buy into the system, then you can leave.

Hey you understood my mwtaphor. I agree the government is required to serve some purposes, but that it complete blows at others. My point is that the current state of the US taxing and spending is fucked and unfair. And hey, that guy you linked got caught hug? It's almost as if you will be punished for trying to live for yourself.
Your points here kind of descend into past pride. I'm proud of myself and my family, but I don't take credit for their accomplishments. And again, my point is that those who bring reforms individually, as the more than often do, should be rewarded rather than the middle man who takes the ideas, adds beacracy and makes it less effective (that's the government)
Why should somebody continue to be rewarded for something that has become a universal part of culture of society, when the individuals who brought it around and are responsible for the deed are dead?
This is the issue I get when people argue against me. They seem to think yhat my ideology is anti-society. They couldn't be more wrong. My ideology is extremely pro-groupist, in a way that is not forced on people. I want to help my mom and dad, I am not forced to. I want to be a part of my community and volunteer, I'm not forced to. I want to serve and help my country, however I am also forced to, and therein lies the problem. There was that old quote 'Ask not what your country can do for you.' Beautiful statement for wartime, but in terms of a country at peace it's bullshit. Always ask what your country is doing for you, because more than likely it's just draining you of your oppurtunity to be an individual for the sake of nationalism, pride, or some other feeling that amounts to you being given no choice but feeling good about it.

also, and let me rephrase the sock exercise, replacing a sock with a road:
>would you pay $9,999 to use a road? would you pay it if there were no other roads at all? how long would there continue to be a road-less market?
now, when you apply logic to itself an interesting phenomena happens, you figure out that if some douche was charging waaaay over the profit margin to use His road, even if it was the only road, not enough people would use it and he would have lost all that money he put into building the road- a goodly amount. if this was the case and it was the only road and it was way overpriced then no one would open a business on it or where that road required to be- what customers will have money left after the toll? another road, maybe longer, would be built to satisfy through traffic. let's say this road is too expensive as well, he loses all of the money he put into his road as well. now let's say a third longer road is put in, but this guy is a douche too and still charges too much- and there is no way to get from one place to the other. eventually majority rule(which is in itself a tool and can be much like a gun-used for good or evil- it'd still exist in a sense within an anarchist society) would come into play. eventually all business and homes that needed transportation by these roads would be abandoned and the road builders will never make any money and be out all that they spent, that is majority rule working. new people would eventually build moderately priced roads- market competition

Non meme answer.

Not paying taxes and living in a state is theft.

You may disagree with how your tax money is used, but you can't argue that it isn't used on upkeep of the state. The state in turn provides the society and infrastructure you need for your life.

Is it possible for a group of people to self organise and maintain those structures? Yes, such an organisation is called a state and will have some form of mandatory membership fee.

I only push individualism on the politic spectrum. I don't believe in forcing anything. What I do believe in is people willingly working together to accomplish amazing things, and those groups being rewarded and having an incentive to continue to do so.
People have and will continue to work together, what we need is a system that allows the individual to be free enough to make innovation and face competition that will drive them to do better. Capitalism does a fine job of doing that, and freedom should be the most basic privledge of all man.

Now explain how anything I said has changed.
Do I still not have to either travel on those roads or build a road of my own to get to my destination? Answer: Yes or No?

So once the point is reached where people can no longer keep building roads because they opt out of using others', because there's no more land left to build roads on, people are FORCED, out of necessity, to use the roads that have already been built.
If you argue that roads with cheap fees should be "good enough", then you aren't actually against taxation. You believe taxation is perfectly fine, as long as it's a reasonable amount.

Congratulations, you've been liberated from your intrinsically flawed meme-ideology. Feel free to join us in civilized human society.

What do you think law enforcement and the military is?

Where is yours?
The government consists of people.
It's essentially a corporation.

How do I move without using roads?

Taxation is theft, but whining about it will do nothing. The only answer is the overthrow of the current system by force, or otherwise flaunting the law as best you can. At the end of the day, the world is material and might makes right. All social "principles" are post hoc rationalizations for the system, which is a game theoretic equilibrium among participating parties trying to maximize their benefit.

What of altruism? Duty? These memes are externally imposed forms of internalized thought control obeying which we've evolved a predisposition for. Think of it like pre-emptive self-imposed punishment for defection. One is always better off ignoring such things. (This is only true locally, if everyone defects you get somalia and everyone is worse off. Hence everyone is better off preaching and enforcing the rules while breaking them in private. (Ever wonder how the taboo against hypocrisy got so strong? Now you know!))

tl;dr arguing and muh nap are pointless. Take what you can, while you can. All other "moral" considerations are the influence of and conditioning by others working to suppress your will. There is no truth in them.

There's always going to be some burden of responsibility on the parents. No way around that, unfortunately, unless you propose we treat toddlers as legally independent.

Mmmmhm

Yep. If you don't like it, fuck off.

Are you a child? A victim? Do you lack all agency? Because that's how you faggots sound.

The truth is you are comfortable, and you will be able to asininely complain about all this technology and infrastructure which is outside the potent of a single human being from the comfort of a first world country.

it is not taxation to pay someone for providing a service- do you call paying for food taxation?
