Re: Reject the \'Anarchist\' Voters

There may be some majority but if the balance did move to this ratio the influence of the state would start diminishing very rapidly. People would basically be in open defiance of the state in many, many areas. Once that ball gets rolling, it will be very difficult to stop.

I agree that the collective force of the majority would be hard to stop. How does that make it "more just" than the current majority being unstopable, unless you happen to agree with the moral code of that future hypothetical majority?

Refusing to be imposed upon is not an imposition upon others. These other people's "moral codes" don't change this at all.

No, this is wrong. You are defining imposition within your own moral code and then saying it's not an imposition for when you act on your moral code because it doesn't violate the terms of your moral code. This is circular. If you stick to this, then you must also grant me the moral authority to say "In my moral code the state is not an imposition because participation is a moral obligation. Therefore when I collect taxes with force it's not imposition because it's not imposition under my moral code."
