The post finishes with this (hyperlink reproduced from the original):

Let's put aside the whole debate about whether or not taxation is legitimate or if it is theft and consider the bigger message. Perhaps George Washington, the father of our country himself said it best:

'Government is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, a troublesome servant and a fearful master. Never for a moment should it be left to irresponsible action."

Government = Force. Keep this in mind next time you want to ask the government to "do something" on your behalf.
