Even when taxation is used for purposes like welfare or infrastructure, the moral question remains: does the end (public benefit) justify the means (coercive taking)?

So @Saylor, @Jameson Lopp and @Saifedean Ammous walk in to a bar.
Saylor orders the most expensive whiskey and says, “I’ll buy the entire bar if I have to. #Bitcoin is the future!”
Lopp, sipping his beer, nods thoughtfully and says, “I’m just here to make sure the security of the drink is decentralized.”
Saifedean looks at his water and says, “Fiat drinks are toxic. I’ll stick to the hard money beverages, thanks.”
The bartender leans in and says, “So...cash or card?”
The bartender smirks and says, “Great. So which one of you is covering the volatility tab?”
Creating a legacy is stupid
Why focus on what your life will be like when you're dead?
What's fulfilling is creative work done today. What happens to that work when you're dead is none of your business.

On average, the school system robs you, but more relevant, your children of 16000 hours of quality time with the fam.
And when they are 12, we wonder why we are handing over influence to their peers.

Meanwhile at your kids' public school: The obsession with identity creates division and facilitates a bullying environment.
How convenient for those in charge that thrive on their divide and conquer #SocialEngineering tactics.

If tax would be used to supporting societal functions in the pursuit of increasing human potential it would make sense. But the fact is that it is used to bomb our children and innocent people for money and more power.
