I was scrolling on Facebook and saw a status by Rick Percoco claiming that without taxation, you wouldn’t be able to fund the government AKA the ***monopoly*** on the use of force. Obviously, we who rightfully claim that #taxationistheft realize this fact. I elaborate explaining just how come taxation is theft.
Another one of his statuses claimed that you need the ability to use force to act against those who act immorally. Again, I elaborate how you can have institution’s that are able to use force – even all individuals who own guns – that aren’t a monopoly on the use of force. Libertarians are not pacifists, and believe in the use of reactionary force only, after one violates another’s property. I break down why the market solution pertaining to the use of force would be superior to granting the most corrupt institution to ever exist a monopoly, as with any other good or service. As Rick seems to believe in liberty and the Constitution, I hope he hears this and it makes him change his mind.
