And yet the IRS remained in operation all throughout his presidency. I won't dispute that he wasn't as bad as those who came after him, but "less bad" is not the same as "good."
Here you go:
1. Taxation
2. Inflation
3. Asset forfeiture
4. Eminent domain
With all due seriousness, is this satire?
Taxation is theft? Then who or what will pay for the police/army/municipal water/some random government service your life depends on
Inflation is theft? Properly managed, inflation can be used to increase a currencies competitiveness on the open market, making a country's exports cheaper to buy, rendering a long-term boost in the economy.
Asset Forfeiture is theft? So drug dealers get to keep the fruits of their ill-gotten gains after conviction.
Eminent Domain is theft? No, though I have no idea how the US system works....
