I deal with the thought about taxes by paying someone else to deal with the thought about taxes.

I don't know about you guys but in Australia the government has a program called eTax that I download and we just run it through that. Doesn't take me very long and I get a few bucks back at the end of it ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

How do you deal with the thought about taxes? Generally I smoke a joint and the thought goes away.

And then they use your tax dollars to bust in your door, steal your dope, kidnap you, and ruin your life. The thought returns. My point exactly, Anarchism is atheism in regards to politics. Well put. As far as I am concerned, "Democracy" (deliberately capitalized) is just as much a religion as Catholocism, Islam, et. al. It requires belief in things that cannot be proven nor are properly subject to objective disproof, and it theorizes that all humans would run amok in the absence of a central authority, but that said central authority (being somehow superiour) will NOT run amok as long as those who would normally run amok have a say in putting them in power. And that's just ONE political system. Perhaps the worst, but only one. Interestingly, trying to actually understand religion (specifically Christianity) led me to be an atheist. Atheism requires a great deal of analysis to be anything but a knee-jerk reflex. That analysis also led me to anarchism.

Anarchism is atheism in regards to politics. Or you could just say that "anarchism is atheism". Worshipers of the State called their god "the common good" and refer to their prayers as "voting" but choosing different words to describe what they are doing doesn't make it any less of a religion.

It's quite hilarious how similar these systems are, e.g. Christians, Buddhists, Muslim, Hinduism all have even more groups within them, Protestant Christianity, Theravada Buddhism and hundreds of cults within every group, west baptist church etc. And what really boggles my mind is the fact that the vast majority of cults believe that their God is the only true God and everyone else should abandon their current lifestyle and adopt theirs instead, since they are the chosen people, their lifestyle is the ultimate lifestyle, their blood is worth more than others and so on. Just seems ridiculous to me.

I'll chalk that up to not enough coffee! Yeah, I definitely fall on the side of agorism. I liked Menken's other quote on that too. "Democracy is the notion that the people know what they want and deserve to get it. Good and hard." Will fix my post asap.

That particular one never fails to get a chuckle out of me.

Because if we don't, the IRS kicks down our doors and throws us in a cage.

Yes. Because there are people in other places that must be killed, maimed, and deprived of their property. This level of violence requires a great deal of funding. And if WE don't pay for it, who will? I mean you can't expect the politicians to actually do something PRODUCTIVE, that defeats the purpose of being an arrogant lazy fuck! The only reason I pay taxes is to keep the gun out of my face. They do nothing I approve of, nor do the bastards have anything I want.
