Hey, man, that's the tip of the iceberg! The government takes money
from you "by threat of force" and uses it to build fast,safe highways;
supply clean, safe drinking water; provide safety lighting for
citiesorganize police to keep your home and family safe; compel food
processors and packers to list ingredients on packages to ensure safe
food supply for you and your family; create old age guarantees against
sickness and poverty -- man, we could go on for pages, listing what
that bad ole' government does -- stuff the rest of us take for granted
as part of civilized society.

Bet you wish you could unilaterally prevent the government from taking
YOUR money from you "by threat of force". Then you could handle all
of the above and much, much more, all by your widdle self! Hint: Lay
in plenty of ammo.
