id rather be forced to pay existing taxes for those roads so my lazy cheap ass neighbour is as well.
Also, while youre at it, STOP FUNDING THE WARS.
You could slash taxes by 80% and still build better roads than we have today.

What if your neighbor doesn't pay? You think he should be locked up? You don't want to pay for wars, but your taxes go towards that anyway. If you don't pay you'll be locked up. This is a system of based on coercion under the threat of violence and you support it just so your lazy neighbor helps pay for roads. Lame.
I mean I'm not defending taxes I am questioning the stability of society without things like roads as public goods.
It's great to have principles and theories but if you want to actually convince someone that taxes are unnecessary it needs to be a real conversation.
This is how I feel. I am ok getting taxed but you need to be efficient with my money and also not commit genocide with it.
There is a solar panel program in DC that makes it more than cost neutral (we make a profit some months) to install and operate in private homes. It will eventually set DC up to have an incredibly stable electric grid.
I understand why some would see this still as government waste but I love it.
You also okay with getting raped?
It definitely helps someone meets his needs.
Most people I know are not really okay with rape or abuse or extortion. But there is no choice for consent or no. So people tell themselves they are okay. It's a protective mechanism of your psyche.
Ones you can feel the energetic quality of theft you will realise that there is no difference between, theft from an individual a gang or a group of neighbours that claim >50% support for robbing you.
