What I don't agree with is

"Agreeing to accept the justice of such a system is paramount to willingly supporting whatever obligations are imposed by such a system..."

So if the system obligated me to pay 80% taxes or just turn my property over the government or perhaps kill myself I would have to willing support the idea?!?

Do you disagree with justice??

I disagree with being a willing supporter of the government when it acts unjustly. I take advantage of some of what the government offers, roads, keeping the general peace ect, and if I somehow didn't the government would tax me anyway. I don't feel that I am obligated to accept anything the government might require of me.
