“the act of voting utterly fails to pledge any one to support the government. It utterly fails to prove that the government rests upon the voluntary support of anybody. On general principles of law and reason, it cannot be said that the government has any voluntary supporters at all, until it can be distinctly shown who its voluntary supporters are.”
– Lysander Spooner (in No Treason)
“A man is none the less a slave because he is allowed to choose a new master once in a term of years”
