It appears that my ideas might fit somehow with what you call voluntaryism. I am one of the tens of millions of Americans who don't file tax returns or voluntarily pay taxes. I'm writing this letter to explain something that you and your readers may not be aware of. The reasons for not filing tax returns or voluntarily paying taxes, and not voting, are similar. They are similar in that both taxes and voting are activities that demand involvement with that coercive institution known as government.
Government exercises a monopoly of legal control over a certain geographic area.
This encompasses coercive monopolization of the major services that it provides us. To fund these services, the government unilaterally imposes a compulsory levy upon us. It doesn't care if we didn't want the service, didn't use all that was offered, or simply refused it altogether. It attempts to punish this refusal by making us serve time in jail or confiscating some of our property, or both. The main reason, however, why I refuse to pay taxes is that I don't want to give my sanction to the government.
