Re: Simple reason why I do not think taxation = theft
[ QUOTE ]
And the point that's often missed is in AC, there are almost exactly the same implicit restrictions. Any baby born into the world is forced to accept the property claims of those who came before him, whether he knows and agrees with them or not, and whether or not they were valid when first made. He has no "opt out" clause. He has no choice. He must follow them, at the point of a gun, held by AC booted thugs (or their children).

Where did this fallacy come from? It's been coming up a lot recently. No child is ever born owning any property other than their own body. Yet miraculously most people (in places where governments aren't too overbearing) seem to do ok for themselves. As I said on this topic before all humans are born owning the most important and valuable piece of real estate they'll ever own the space between their ears.
