Bernice: "your Govt tell you you have to give them part of your wages (if you work), why should you have to.....because that is the rules."
That is very true, it is the rules. The question then is, who made the rules? And the answer to that is, Collectivists in position of political authority made those rules, because they believe the government has a right to take your hard-earned money, even against your will. These rules are enforced by laws, which means they are backed by force. I consent to give up a part of my wages not because I want to or think it is right, but because it isn't wise to argue when a gun is pointed at your head.
But why aren't these rules right? For one thing, in America at least, the laws themselves are strictly illegal, because unconstitutional. We have no moral or legal obligation to pay an income tax, only it is preferable to going to jail. Actually, however, many court cases have been won by citizens refusing to pay the income tax on constitutional grounds. But more often than not, the judges back the illegal system.
It is these "rules," whether in Australia or America, that together comprise the modern police state we live in, where Collectivists rule and Individualists (such as the America Founding Fathers) have been dethroned. And that is really my point.
