Many statists expect you to pay taxes because they think it's your moral obligation.

I personally don't know any statists, at least on this board, who would advocate that paying taxes to a govt is a question of morality. I don't recall the "Thou shalt pay taxes" argument ever being uttered.

They don't say that paying to the government is a moral issue, but they will say that paying to "the common cause" because of "social contracts" and so forth are moral issues. They may not use the word "moral", but they don't use language like "because the government has the biggest guns" either.
