I've head this argument made many times before. Frankly, I'd rather have the money go to more police to protect me from these folks than give in to blackmail.

Actually, his article is arguing for zero taxes. He says that all redistribution through governmental coercion is morally the equivalent of slavery. He makes no distinction or allowance for taxes for one versus another. His argument is in blak or white and holds together with all the logical force of a five-year old.
