Or they can waste less money and stop stealing from me at gunpoint.

It fascinates me how those isn't even an option in some people's minds.

They're not stealing from you, it's what's been decided by our elected representatives. You're free to try to elect people who agree that taxation is theft (you won't be the only one).

Or you can always move to a state that already agreed with you and tries to minimize your tax burden.

Because most people don't see taxation as theft, and don't mind paying it in exchange for certain goods/services?
