I agree that eventually, the net along with other technologies will
make the government more or less obsolete, however, as long as they
have guns and we don't have a nonviolent way to resist (if we resist
violently they can escalate to the point where we can't compete -
tanks, missles, jets, etc.) the government can force us to pay taxes.
