That's what I thought too. But then the Federal Government raped my wife in front of me, sold my infant children to various owners hundreds of miles away, whipped my back raw, and forced me to spend the rest of my life picking cotton in the fields for non-payment of taxes.
I'm still waiting for someone to force a comparison between taxation and the Jewish Holocaust. It will happen, if it hasn't already.
You didn't answer the question. You're response sounds like someone who pays for his 'protection'. And see, it was a very relative answer, I told you so. Your answer is also a sad commentary on the state of our liberties....
None of us in this country enjoy the freedom and liberty the founders envisioned. The slaves of old in America could buy their freedom. You and I can't buy our freedom from the government which oppresses us. So, in a way, the slaves had an option we don't.
