Instead of a mugger I think the mafia is a better analogy. The mafia doesn't use violence directly like a mugger would (unless it has to, it mainly relies on threat, which is why its more profitable), but it leans on the store owner to pay protection money aka taxes. The store owner can say no and get killed or have its place burned down, windows constantly broken, or just have a guy in the mafia scare away customers. We know this is immoral and force. Whether the store owner agrees or not, the mafia is evil and trying to exert pressure to steal. And in the case of the state there is no higher authority to appeal to, at least with the mafia there are WPP's and police etc.We could also use the "What is justice?" argument from The Republic. Justice is paying your debts (taxes). So is it just, if a man lent you his knife, to give it back to him when he is going to kill someone? No obviously not. And we know the state kills people and uses the money to do evil. This argument would probably sink better into liberals while the previous would work better towards conservatives. Always make sure your arguments fit the person, you have to work with what they don't like already to show them how the state does evil against them. This means argue anti drug war and anti war to the liberals, and argue taxation and abortion and welfare to the conservatives. But yes, its still voluntary to give the knife back.Basically it is a choice. But regardless of it being a choice the state is evil because it will use violence against you. We accept the choice because it is the only way to get rid of the evil, by staying and fighting (mentally). So yes it is mutually beneficial to us, the business, and the state, to all work together. But the state is a violent parasite. It is evil. And we would be better off without it. This is why Stefan says "don't take up guns against the state" because you really can't win.I mean imagine if someone told abolitionists that they agree to slavery because they support it through taxes. Basically a Jew in a Nazi concentration camp using Nazi services, so they must support it and it must be good for them. The solution isn't to leave or to fight with violence, the solution is basically slave morality, since you are too weak and unable to fight, you must work in other ways to gain power.What are your choices? There are no countries to escape too. You can't go in the ocean or on it (although this is an idea and why offshore banks exist), you cant really go in nature because you are still on government land, you can't go to Antarctica or the moon because you can't survive. If you go black market that is the same because if you get caught then you risk violence by government (not to mention violence in black market). So there are no choices any sane person would pick (I know there are a few exceptions).I don't know how watertight this is, but I do think its voluntary to trade with taxes (I could be wrong), but the state is still evil and uses threats and force and is not necessary. So yes we choose to pay taxes so we can stay in society and someday have freedom for everyone including the 99% majority who wants to kill us for being peaceful.....
In this video he says "its unconscionability" due to power disparity between the state and the people, so we should use that argument. I'm really tired so I hope this makes sense.
