when i CHOOSE to drive and I go to the gas station and theres like 20% tax on fuel. is that theft?

This is your example of taxation?
VAT? Because buying the product (gas) is voluntarily? So now that makes a third party interfering (taking money) with two people making a deal also voluntarily?
Why are you in bitcoin if you believe that?

cuz how else we maintain the roads?
what does this have to do with bitcoin? will paying in bitcoin resurface my roads once in a while?
I don't want a third party involved in my transactions, taking money by threat of force. Do you?
Peer to peer.
in my example, yes.
from expwrience of living I can tell you 100% not enough people would bother to voluntarily chip in to fund public infra etc. Never gonna happen.
