Well, Coffeehouse, I'm not sure I can live anywhere in taxlessness, in this country. I mean, short of being completely homeless. In most places, I'd pay a sales tax on almost anything I bought. I pay income taxes, over a certain amount of income. I pay various wage taxes on anything I earn. I pay land taxes on any piece of forest I inhabited, or someone else would, if someone else owned it.
But the point here is, the government doesn't use a standard of "awfulness" to restrict liberty. It's just their hobby.
