It's like when I say to you "hey, i'll protect you and your family and build you a house" and then you say "no, i don't want that" and then I say "well I did it so pay me." I mean sure you live a better life but you didn't consent to that.
Think about it.

Edited by FoMan123: 6/3/2013 12:13:30 AMDon't be silly; of course you consented to taxes. Or at least, the voting citizenry of the country as a whole did. And, as a population, we can also remove taxes. Of course, most of us realize the inherent benefits of taxation and don't mind paying a little to the government so that it can provide things like protection, transportation, and services.
