The battle against big-government, redistributionist, collectivist politicians is never-ending. A revealing video of an interview with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid tells us why it’s so hard to convince these people of the error of their ways: They’re simply clueless. Behold Reid maintaining that taxes are voluntary.

I’ve gotten similar reactions from liberals when I liken the extraction of taxes each year to taking your money at the point of a gun. They gasp and say that’s just not true. “Where’s the gun?” they ask. Even when I tell them to withhold their taxes and just see how quickly state violence descends upon them they still don’t get it. This is what we’re up against.
