You're on a roll, Mr. Bob Hettinga:
... is a distinction without a difference. Identical to the distinction between "pacifism", or "opposition to war", and treason, in an actual time of war.
Of course, the very concept of tax-free *anything* is anathema to me, these days. At the very least, it's just as much a state subsidy as a cash grant.
To summarize: - Opposing any war is treason. - Every human activity should be taxed. - Failure to tax is equivalent to subsidy.
Nation-states are a bitch, y'all...
And from the above I conclude that you like it that way.
Cheers, RAH
Three cheers for the state, rah rah rah! Digital bearer settlement is treason. -- Patrick "Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes. And armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended. ... No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare." James Madison, April 20, 1795
