39. They need to be reminded of what taxes and the social contract are.
They're not thinking, obviously. Do they want roads? Mail? Electronic infrastructure? Water? Security? Safety? Do they want to pay for all of that out of pocket? Do they understand that private property is actually a loan from the commons, which everyone and no one owns? Do they understand that taxes support private property, that without them there is no property, it's every man, woman and child for his or her self?

Of course they don't understand any of that. If they did, they wouldn't be ignorant tea baggers.
