Believe it or not...
The fun: Taxes are voluntary, always have been, everywhere! And I bet you'll not find any law or legislation that define the opposite.
The fact: governments and dictatorships enforce tax collection with treats and various strategies to make citizens believe they are forced to pay.
Note: it isn't the payment of tax that's voluntary. Rather, it's the manner in which citizens submit their own taxes. Citizens have the obligation to file tax returns because already under contract with whatever Gov Corporation, but no one force anyone to be a citizen, an employee of the Gov.
I saw someone post a video on this once.
