Everyone who has had to pay taxes has dreamt of telling the government to go fuck themselves. If people had no fear of the government punishing them, most people would not pay taxes. The government can only punish people who fail to pay their taxed via the use of force. The defund the police movement accompanied by looney DAs who conspire to punish criminals as little as they can possibly get away with have provided the perfect example that disproves your idea that the credible threat of violence isn't necessary to keep law and order. Visit Oakland, San Francisco, LA, Seattle, Portland, or any place run by current day progressives. Merchandise has to be locked away because of systematic shop lifting. Cashiers at fast food places have to be placed behind bullet proof glass. The streets are filled with fent zombies and homeless encampments. In the Bay Area it's just a given now that your car windows will be smashed by thieves every couple of weeks if they're not safely locked away in a garage. Most blue hive cities looked like dystopian bombed out hellscapes someone might design for a post apocalyptic movie. There are a hell of a lot of people that are fucking animals, animals that only ape civilized behavior because they will be put in prison or shot by armed men acting on behalf of the state. The fact that you seem to think people pay their taxes because they are Dudley Do-Right patriotic, upstanding citizens and nearly all people obey the law because they are pure of heart marks your as laughably, criminally naive. Tell me you have never left the safety of an all white gated community in some small New Hampshire town without saying that. Spend some time with us out here in the trenches, and if you manage to survive you'll find your mind has changed.
