They take my money without my consent to use it for things I do not want it used for. AKA robbery. There is no moral difference because you said the magic incantation "government" before you did it.

Remember that all I have to is not consent and peacefully sit in my living room not paying and armed men will kick in my door and take me to prison. That ups the criminal activity on their part to armed robbery, breaking and entering, and kidnapping.

All for the horrific crime on my part of not wanting my resources to be used to bomb civilians half way around the world in countries I'll never visit in my life.

Roads, schools, and firefighters all used to be private endeavors. I'm not imagining a way humans never lived.

I simply want the base way that humans interact to be informed consent rather than our current standard of a standing threat of violence at all times.

Understandable for sure.

You aren't the only liberal suddenly seeing the reason in limiting government these days.

I hope you really take to heart the morals of it and don't do like the MAGA crowd going from "small government" to authoritarians in the blink of an eye on inauguration day.
