Charles, are you willing to give up the freedoms those taxes buy for you,
(such as a national defense, breaking down of economic barriers in foreign
countries for the goods produced here, the ability to purchase goods produced
elsewhere for lower prices, etc.)?
Oh, and when did paying taxes to support the Government become "voluntary"?
The federal tax on income was made legal by the adoption of the 17th
Amendment, I believe. I'm sure it was not passed through congress and the
states on a whim.
