Re: Economic Arguments Against Slavery?
You're asking me what the true demand for coercion is. How can I possibly know that? How can you possibly know that? If nobody selects to fund the IRS to collect taxes...then obviously there's no demand for coercion. Forced taxation does not match anybody's true preferences. That's your argument?
Yeah, because all the charities have 99% overhead. Except they don't. No two organizations provide people with the same exact bang for their buck. No two organizations are equally efficient/effective. Taxpayers, given that they want the most bang for buck, would support whichever government organizations provided them with the most bang for their buck. The most beneficial government organizations would gain resources and the least beneficial organizations would lose resources.
No I did not ask you to dance. I laughed at your dress from across the room. There is no need to address your arguments again. They are just as wrong now as they were the last time. Who exactly do you think will select to fund the IRS to collect the money from them?

And you are still avoiding the points I raised, but that does not bother me, because you will still be just as wrong about letting people directly decide which programs to fund and which ones not to fund because they will have to spend all their money raising money just like a bad charity with 99% overhead.
