Really, did you think this was something that I could not "deduce" on my own? Or, is it that we are both having trouble detecting each other's tone? When you read the pants shitting quote, you should have injected lots of smarmy, smartassishness. But then, there is also the fact that I was addressing Rob, who takes absolute stands. He says taxation is wrong BECAUSE it is obtained through coersion. I was simply pointing out that coersion of a behavior can be beneficial to all concerned. I was responding to the absolute of his stance, not judging the stance of every libertarian or even any other libertarian. Mmm-K?
