No, they are not. And even of they are, then nations are then, therefore, evil and should then be done away with.. I'm daft, then. Taxation is moot necessary for me to survive and by default makes it harder for me to thrive. I'm ok with being daft if I'm speaking the truth to people so innured with evil that they can't see another way to live. That's not my fault toy can't possibly conceive of a better way to live that isn't based on coercion.
