I had no idea Wikipedia was a legal dictionary. Paying taxes is not being forced to work against your will because there is no requirement for work, in fact most socialist states pay people who don't work at all. A citizen or freeman can skip work or quit their job, a slave can't. They may have some rights and protections but they don't have a choice about working. A slave can't quit their job and collect welfare. So even under that definition you are not a slave.
You are viewing a single comment's thread from:
Everything you buy is taxed. A citizen or “freeman” is taxed if he wishes to have a business, etc. This is a claim of ownership on one’s labor, which is a product of one’s body. Is it your positions that a claim of ownership on another’s body does not translate to slavery?
Do they claim all of it or just a percentage? Are you free to renounce your citizenship and leave?
Is everyone required to work?
One has to apply to renounce one’s citizenship, and pay a fee. This application may be rejected because in truth, we are slaves to the state.
As for your first point:
The government's website says this:
https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/legal/travel-legal-considerations/us-citizenship/Renunciation-US-Nationality-Abroad.html
That seems straightforward enough.
How much is the fee and where does it say there is a fee? Where does it say anything about an application or the possibility that it may be rejected?

Here we go again.
Yes, defending yourself from an officer or agent attempting to steal your property is what I am talking about. Stop the legal euphemisms.
Finally, that is good to know. If someone takes 99% of the fruits of my labor by force it is not slavery, even though that fits the definition of the word.
It's not stealing when you get something in return and you are not allowed to fight or attack anyone including the police, if you attack a police officer or a repo agent or someone else legally taking their property do you think they don't have a right to defend themselves? why does their right to defend themselves go away? Where does your right to attack them come from?
I am glad I could explain that.
So let me get this right, the fellas paying the 92% tax rate in the 50s were slaves?
99% wouldn't fit the definition of slavery, now you get it. Think about why it is so important to you to be a slave that you redefine the word to include yourself.
Lol. Right. Like when my van was broken into and the bums that did it left some wine coolers in there.
Or like if there were a pizza joint that forced you to buy the pizza at gunpoint.
Or like the woman who was raped. Hey! She got some sex, didn’t she?!
Bobby says: It’s not stealing! You got something in return.
Lol. Fucking pure lunacy.
As I, unlike you, don’t view police as a class of individuals with greater rights than others, I don’t call it an “attack” when defending my property. I call it defense, which it is. Good luck with the euphemisms, and keep moving those goalposts! You’re making my case for me!
