RE: "If Taxation Without Consent Is NOT Robbery ..."

in #quotes8 years ago

What does freedom have to do with easy?

Freedom is restricted by economic constraints. With "not so easy" I wanted to say they'd go out of business when they did that. Only because it works for you doesn't mean it works for anyone else. Especially those dealing with a lot of small amounts. Putting up a sign "only accepting bitcoin or silver" on your restaurant door would either make customers stay away, or they'd eat and tell you they only have dollars. You can't simply say you won't do business with them any more, except maybe with face recogintion software tracking your guests...

No matter how much you may want to, there are some things you just can't "give" to others. Such as experience. Such as understanding. Such as the results of your having spent 10,000 hours of disciplined dedication to acquire a skill. Such as a feeling of accomplishment and self respect.

Right. I was only talking about free time though. How they spend it is their decision, and if they decide to waste it it's their own loss.
