Taxation is thought to be indispensable to civilization today, just as slavery once was. Advocates of taxation claim that since most people pay assigned taxes before the guns show up, they have implicitly agreed to it as the price of living in "society." Most slaves obeyed their master before he got out the whip, yet we would hardly argue that this constituted agreement to their servitude. Today, we have an enlightened perspective on slavery, just as one day we will have an enlightened perspective on taxes and other forms of aggression we now think of as "the only way."

Так я и не рыпаюсь особо-то, так, брюзжу, что нет другого глобуса - стремление к счастью пока еще никто не отменял :)

Типа того: икорка чтобы мазать на колбасу уже есть, теперь бы свободы.
