If you want to say that we need watch how the taxes are spent, I'll talk. But if you're going to try and say that taxing in general is immoral and wrong then you can go to North Korea or some other wonderful communist country.
I don't think you have a brain. If I am against taxes then how can I be for communism? I am for real capitalism. 100% lassiez faire capitalism is what I want. You are more of a socialist than I am.

I'm not going to get into a philosophical argument here because I don't care to and won't agree with you anyway because I think Objectivism is bull****. Why don't you want to talk about how well your government would actually function? You really don't need to get into what is moral to see if something is fiscally retarded or not.
I can talk about it, but you will not agree because you don't believe what is moral is practical. I believe the government would get money from donations because that is what is rational and moral. The government would not force others to pay for their services. The government gives its services and those who are rational will pay for their services. Since the rational are the ones who become rich in a laissez faire economy, they will be able to give tons of money to the government. Therefore the government will be able to receive funding. Of course, all the government would have is a police force, armed forces, and courts with a strict constitution protecting contractual agreements and everyone's basic rights so it isn't like you would need much.
