Actually, you didn't.
You were an intellectual sloth who chose to post a blanket dismissal of
ALL the points without considering ANY of them. Or, you actually did
consider them and realized you can't make them go away with logic, so
you changed the subject. That's fine. I'll address the new subject: Your
beliefs.
Your blanket dismissal of ALL my points was in the form of an assertion
of YOUR "belief".
A "belief" is something that is accepted as true without material
evidence and logical proof. I do NOT share your "belief". Asserting what
you believe will NOT make me share your "belief".
Your posts imply that you "believe" taxation is good. Your posts imply
that you "believe" we actually get "civil society" as a result of taxation.
As a matter of fact and the following logic, you contradict yourself.
If you don't pay property taxes, men with guns come to FORCIBLY remove
you from your home and steal it from you. This is called an eviction and
sheriff's sale.
By you logic, men with guns stealing your home is "civil society".
------------
What you ignored:
1. Taxation is the taking of property.
2. You can NOT delegate a right to somebody else that you yourself do
not have.
3. You do NOT have the right to take my property just because you want
it or because you will use it for the benefit of society.
4. Since you do NOT have the right to take my property for those
purposes, you can NOT give that right to any other entity.
5. Since you can NOT give that right to the people, the people do NOT
have that right.
6. Since the people do NOT have that right, the people can NOT give the
right to take my property for those purposes to the State.
7. What applies to you, applies to everybody else as well.
We hold these truths to self-evident, that all men are created equal...
And if you don't understand that, here's the link to a movie that will
explain it to you in pictures:

Oops, the superstitious belief in the myth of authority has been exposed
for what it is.

Hey Dufus, when are you going to LEARN, the simple FACT, that he who has
the BIGGEST GUN, (Gun, Club, Bomb, knife, weapon) SETS the Rules....
Duh... It has ALWAYS been so, and will continue to BE SO, forever....
If I want your stuff, and I have a BIGGER GUN, I KILL You, and take your
STUFF, Period.... ALL the rest, is nothing more than BULLSHIT... It is
Human Nature, and will ALWAYS BE so....
