We all know that taxation is theft,

It is hard to believe that the same person wrote both those sentences. This "Social Contract" lingo is used to generate the legal fiction that all people agreed to it because it was passed by a Congress and signed 90 years ago.

Contrast that with "We all know that taxation is theft". Well, Murray Rothbard thought so, and so do the anarcho-libertarians. That is not the traditional conservative position, nor the Bircher tradition. Now, taxation as it is now practiced is certainly theft. However, if a state funds its military by slapping tariffs on imported goods that are used to keep the order that makes the trade possible, I wouldn't call that theft in the same way that a payroll tax that goes into the general fund to fund things we are too broke to buy and don't need is.

“It is hard to believe that the same person wrote both those sentences.”

By comparing excerpts you totally lose the context of the statements.

Shame.
