Would you pay taxes if they were voluntary?

Of course, if as a result of this nobody pays taxes, resulting in the State getting bankrupt, the downfall of welfare State and the privatization of everything, the country would become such a hellhole that my priority would be run away from it.

Really? The worst thing you're afraid of with no taxes is privatization? That'd be one of the very few benefits.

A privatised fire service could be fun. Especially if your house was on fire.

It's MUCH better than no fire service at all (or one that is 75 miles away).

Well, obviously, but that could be said for a privatised police, a privatised education system and a privatised healthcare system. Anything is clearly better than nothing, but that doesn't mean it wouldn't be a bad idea.
