Taxation Is Theft

TAXES ARE MANDATORY CONTRIBUTIONS, OFTEN UNAUTHORIZED, THAT A GOVERNMENT AGENCY, WHETHER LOCAL, REGIONAL, OR FEDERAL, IMPOSES ON PEOPLE OR BUSINESSES. TAXATION IS THE PROCESS THROUGH WHICH A GOVERNMENT OR OTHER ORGANIZATION DEMANDS THAT INDIVIDUALS AND BUSINESSES PAY AN INVOLUNTARY FEE. IT DIFFERS FROM OTHER TYPES OF PAYMENT IN THE MARKET BECAUSE IT DOESN'T REQUIRE MUTUAL CONSENT, AND ISN'T A DIRECT RESULT OF ANY GOODS OR SERVICES THAT HAVE BEEN PROVIDED. GOVERNMENTS FORCE TAXATION UPON CITIZENS WITH THE THREAT OF FORCE. �TAXATION IS NOTHING BUT ORGANIZED THEFT, AND THE CONCEPT OF A �FAIR TAX� IS THEREFORE EVERY BIT AS ABSURD AS THAT OF "FAIR THEFT." � MURRAY ROTHBARD TAXES FORCED UPON US - SALES TAX - SIN TAX - TRAVEL TAX - CAPITAL GAINS TAX - INHERITANCE/ESTATE TAXES - INCOME TAX - VALUE-ADDED TAX - PAYROLL TAX - PROPERTY TAX - SOCIAL SECURITY TAX - GIFT TAX - MEDICARE TAX - DEATH TAX
