In government we trust

This is almost as good as the claim that paying taxes is voluntary:

“I’m not here to say that the government is always right, but when the government tells you to do something, I’m sure you would all agree that I think you all recognize that is something you need to do.”

I guess we really did something bad to deserve these representatives…

It isn’t only semantic

One would assume that the Senate Majority Leader must know that taxes aren’t voluntary. I only wonder why he insist taking this rather peculiar line of argument instead of arguing the supposed necessity or supposed benefits of wealth distribution. At least among the few blog reader I take it for granted that we are all in agreement that laws, and taxes are administrated and legitimized by laws, are not voluntary actions.
