They start using government as a club against others. Then it just devolves into a battle to see who holds the club.

Now there is, at least, a view that is internally consistent. I suppose that prosecuting rapists and murderers is one of the very "minimum" functions of government, right? I mean I already asked you this once you gave me a lecture about protecting my own family rather than answering my question.
Obviously this minimum amount of government would need a minimum amount of funding. Why would a tax on head of cattle be any worse than any other tax, assuming that the total of all taxes was minimal as you seem to want?

No wonder you're so confused.

Just as long as you recognize that I didn't make up my ideas out of thin air and that your disagreement is with people who are smarter and much more influential than both of us.

Just so we're clear, you're going to stack Strawman, Red Herring, and Appeal to Authority on your portfolio of logical fallacies. Anymore you want to add? Oh, I forgot about Sugar Plum, so we can add good old Ad Hominem as well,. You are a superstar here!
