False. The assertion is that you can't "accept the role of taxes in society" without siding with your rulers; and I stand by that. 

If you champion someone else's right to violently expropriate you, then you have been brainwashed; and, again, I'm sorry.

I didn't imply that.  The assertion was that a person couldn't possibly accept the role of taxes in society without being deluded.  That's what's false, and it's trivially false.

Which tax rate do you consider "fair" and would pay?

You imply that everyone has deeply considered taxes and agreed to allow the current system. That’s patently false. 

Representation through elections is a farce. Reps simply vote based on their self interest, and get re-elected based on their donors’ spending, not on who the people would want absent propaganda campaigns. Everything is manufactured consent.
