Just when I thought you couldn't possible get any more obtuse, you go an say something like this , again I ask does that mean the unemployed or those that choose not to pay consumption taxes by providing their own material needs have no rights ?
I think you are must be intentionally attempting to appear simple because nobody could possibly be as dumb as what you appear to be using the line of reasoning you are currently pursuing.
Allow me to quote from a rather famous document that may turn on a light bulb or two for you ..
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
ringing any bells yet?
Yes, yes that's all very nice...
But it is the United States that protects those rights that are "endowed by their Creator", and allows you to exercise those rights.
And it is TAXES that pay for that protection.
Therefore, to enjoy those rights, it is every citizens duty to pay their taxes.
