"But how is this legal plunder to be identified? Quite simply. See if the law takes from some persons what belongs to them, and gives it to other persons to whom it does not belong. See if the law benefits one citizen at the expense of another by doing what the citizen himself cannot do without committing a crime." - Frédéric Bastiat

Pretty smart guy, that Frenchman.

Smart? Because he shares your definition of taxation? Like I said, you can't understand the simplest concept.
Because your definition makes no statement or scope on the amount which is your share and add the fact you expect America to protect you for free, you are the ultimate freeloader.
You want everything America used to offer and are unwilling to pay a penny to get it.
Because according to your asshole frenchman idol, a penny or a million dollars, it doesn't matter. Any taxes paid are plunder.
The fact he is like-minded to you should have set off every alarm in your hydro-encephalitic head.

That is an excellent quote even if is is from a Frenchman.
I do not think the Frenchmen were always pussies, they actually used to have some fight in them. Maybe it was because they refused to eat cake.

Is living under socialism what turned them into pussies?

I don't think conservatives "expect America to protect us for free". We are not "unwilling to pay a penny". We are simply not willing to pay the lion's share while at the same time being accused not paying our fair share.

Conservatives are against a progressive income tax that requires half the people to pay everything while allowing the other half to pay nothing.

Paying social welfare benefits to those who do not contribute to the system is the looting of the treasury that brings about the demise of democracies. That's why the Constitution prohibits all the existing federal social welfare programs. America was created as a constitutional republic, NOT A DEMOCRACY.

America is going bankrupt because we have abandoned the Constitution.

"A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover they can vote themselves largess from the public treasury.

"From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising them the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.

You should also mention that most of the people found in the military are conservative. So once again, we are doing the lion's share and people like Obama like to take credit.
