Re: What is the difference betwwen these two scenarios?

Let me put it this way --- if you thought taxes was theft (and didn't see a difference), I suspect you would be posting from prison right now. Are you? Have you tried to stop paying taxes? Have you fought people trying to collect taxes?
I stand by my original response.

No. If someone puts a gun to my head in a dark alley and demands my wallet, I give it to him. Likewise, when government-sponsored thugs demand my property under threat of violence, I give it to them. My family needs me too much to spend my life in jail. As for what I'd do if I didn't have a family, it may or may not be different. I cannot say.
