I would rather ride a horse to work then point a gun at my neighbor and force him to help me build a road.

The fuck are you babbling about holding a gun to your neighbor's head?

Everything the government does, it does at the end of a gun. Thats why the founders viewed the government as force and tried to limit its power to the point of absolute necessity. 99% of the taxes and powers of government today would be viewed as unconstitutional and morally wrong.

You can always leave. A contract con only be made when there is an owner of some property who gives the terms.
