My grandparents have none of our modern luxuries, worked a small patch of land to grow food for the family to eat, worked hard. Different times, different challenges, but they did have mortgages and taxes. Taxes are eternal.

I refuse to believe that taxes are god given. They are man made and as such open to be abandoned.

Absolutely- the quote that always comes to mind, for me, is 'taxes are the price we pay for failing to build a civilised society'. They are inevitable, because we continue to fail at the basics.

Theft and extortion at the base of society is better described as a barbarian state of society while living up to our potential would put voluntary interaction at the core.
