Over at Free Liberal (via VikingPundit) they have some old video of Sen. Harry Reid attempting to explain how paying taxes in the United States is voluntary. Except that it isn't. Except that there are "loopholes" or "incentives." Except that you will go to jail if you don't pay your taxes. Except that it's voluntary.
Of course, the easy answer is: No, paying taxes is not voluntary.
"Voluntary" -- I don't think that word means what Reid thinks it means.
On a related note: The interviewer should have to go to jail for that tie.
