I think Paul is using a big assumption  on social contract.This right 
to tax by the government or by a non contracted group of people is a 
large assumption without the necessary facts to prove the social 
contract, it is a historical broad assumption that fails. Yes there 
were towns and community formed by either a single property owner or 
the unamious consent of all the property owners. Today these type 
communities are still forming they are called intentional communities, 
restrictive coveant communities, coop apartments, co housing projects, 
with the single owner we have hotels, mobile home parks private towns ( 
like near Disney World and owned by it) and apartment complexes as 
examples but most people do not live in such consentual communities, 
mant towns in the past that were formed by property owners have since 
been co-opted by the  county, state or federal government and there is 
no evidence that all areas were a consentual community to begin with. 
So a border in such a nonconsentual government is meaningless to a 
libertarian.--- In [email protected], <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
