 What am I coping with? Reality?  
 You're still being taxed. It's still involuntary.

 
 And if I don't, they'll send armed men to my house to jail me... What about reality do you not understand? I'm not disagreeing taxes are bad and involuntary.... I'm acknowledging reality. 
 I tend to not want to give the rulers any credit. "Oh but at least they are using it for X now", I won't give then one day of credit. 
 realistic pragmatism just isnt as sexy as ideological maxiism. you need to work harder to be so hot right now @OceanSlim 
 I have failed to be sexy. 😢 But I'm already married with kids so who cares. 🤷🏻
