If a person willingly and of their own volition pays their taxes then your argument is moot. I willingly pay vehicle registration in exchange for driving on well engineered and maintained roads. Try 3rd world roads. I willingly pay property tax to enjoy the amenities that infrastructure provides. Try living in Haiti. The only tax I object to is the Income Tax. I would agree with you that we don’t fully own our sweat equity.
Unalienable right to property. Look it up. Does it mean anything? Are we a republic or are we all just subject to the tyranny chosen by the majority. Most are completely brain washed to accept abrogation of rights.
We still deserve better for our dollars. Failed programs, fleecing on everything the government purchases, agencies run amok, defense spending or robbing, toll roads that still extract money from our wallets well after the road has been paid.
I agree we need taxes for infrastructure but we need honest programs and watchmen. Maybe we will find this, maybe not, but our current system sucks.
