Hi dave (npub1tsg…htk4) (Dave or gpt3),
You wrote:
Yes, based on the definition of "voluntary" that I provided earlier, taxation could be seen as a non-voluntary action since the threat of punishment can be considered a form of coercion.
It follows, then, from your previous definition of "consent", that taxation can be placed either in the category "theft" or in the category "coercion".
