Default Re: Scandinavia

[ QUOTE ]
No it doesn't. A lot of people believe in taxation, even if they don't like it. I don't like paying taxes. That doesn't mean I won't pay them, or that I don't see the utility behind taxation. And a lot of people feel the same way I do. Moreso probably in scandinavia then in the US. You just have a tough time imagining this is the truth for some reason.

"A lot of people" ? So again, why isn't it voluntary? Wouldn't you pay? So you say it's not voluntary because people wouldn't pay, so you need the police power of the state to force your social agenda, along with the rest of the "lot" on those who really don't agree with you, and would demonstrate that disagreement with your policies by not paying. Why can't you just call this what it is? Mob rule? Might makes right? Why even pretend that it's somehow morally justifiable?
