Why it is necessary evil ? You don't live alone in this world and I bet you profited enormously from the country, community that you live in.

Because taxes are mandatory, they are taken from people by force.

I am absolutely happy to give back to the community, when it's a voluntary decision, a choice I am free to make.

Yes, I did benefit from living in a society, but I never signed up to owing them something for the rest of my life.

It's beautiful when people are making a decision to contribute to society and help others, it's very different when they are coerced into it.
