I don't think anyone forces me to pay taxes. I have the ability to live anywhere in the world. With the invention of the internet, I can be connected to my family no matter where I am. I make the conscious decision to work in America and I voluntarily pay taxes. This holds true for pretty much anyone in America.
Humanity can not progress with people like you.
If you ARE born in the geographic boundaries of the U.S., you ARE FORCED to pay taxes.
It may be easier to emigrate to escape political coercion, but you are still cattle on a tax farm.
If you feel that government spends money more efficiently than you do on your own is irreverent, especially when there is a program, a department of the treasury, that openly accepts PRIVATE donations. So, you, or any liberal, can literally be taxed at a rate of 40%, but you can oblige yourself to be taxed at 75% or w/e you want to hand over. It is rather revealing that people will advocate for more taxation, but will not put their money where their mouth is.
If government is so great, pay more income taxes. You are free to pay more than the going rate. go ahead. Nothing is stopping you. But if a libertarian wants to pay and therefore receive less, * gets panties in a bundle*
