Taxes are what makes the western world able to keep the high living standards that we have. Taxes is the basis for the welfare society we have in most western democratic countries, and probably the most important factor in giving everyone an equal opportunity (regardless of family, inheritance, race et.c.).
Arguing that you shouldn't pay income tax is just stupid, regardless of what some ancient laws might say. It would effectively eradicte government funded education, health services, daycare subsidiaries, and the list goes on...
