Talk:Legal charity
Taxation is not charity. It is force. The more you depend upon it the more subject you are to it. True charity is the freewill choice to help others which makes you more capable of helping yourself.

Phil Fischer's video is not only misleading but is missing a basic understanding of individual and social development and the cause for societal decay known for centuries.
