I'm going to have the opportunity to speak with a reporter tomorrow. Looking for short talking points. Thanks in advance.

- Taxation is theft. Maybe start with an anecdote, a friend asked you what the difference between taxation and theft was... and you couldn't answer. Or you were asked to define theft and realised it is the exact same as taxation.

- The income tax is immoral. Give example of 50% income tax... what would you call a 100% income tax? Slavery comes to mind.

- The state is an anti-social institution.

- Democracy is not Liberty. Mob rule by a gang of thieves writ large is hardly freedom.
Possible expand: An old joke goes... who historically are the two most important people to western civilization? Arguably, but i think agreeably - Jesus Christ and Socrates.

Who killed Jesus Christ and Socrates?

Democracy did.

:D
