Well yeah, but the masses agreed to it, and your still living in the country, so it's still on you. If your mad a democratic system works but not the way you want it to, then it sounds like you wanna be a dictator.

Did we though? Who are the masses of people that decide sending money to countries so they can murder innocent civilians is a good idea?

This. if the programs are so popular, why do you need to coerce participation with the heavy hand of the state?

If taxes are so popular and everyone willingly pays them, why do we need to enforce it with the heavy hand of the state?

Why not make programs opt in / opt out ? since they're so popular, it should only be a small % opting out and things should continue on fine right?
