No representation without taxation

Plans to reduce the voting age in the UK have been condemned as "political self-interest" by David Farrer of Freedom and Whisky. Warming to his theme he added: "There is no reason why government employees - our servants - should be allowed to decide how much of the people's money they can grab."

The British government is currently decided by a system known as "democracy" in which in "elections" people are allowed to decide how much of other people's money they get to steal and how much of their liberty they get to swipe. Many have condemned the system as responsible for the UK's decline over the last 100 years prompting calls for the restoration of a traditional monarchy.
