Description

The first part demonstrated by traditional reasoning, deals with that citizens have natural rights to have and control freely their own taxes. Citizens enter the community to gain the rights of public liberty instead of losing their natural rights of freedom. Property means freedom, and depriving one’s property means depriving his liberty. Tax is property and the purpose of a person’s entering society is to get freedom instead of losing the freedom. Personal property entering into the community in the form of tax should be the individual public freedom created by community. Individual freedom dominating the tax should be the basis of public governance. If there is no direct freedom to dominate one’s personal property, the individual will completely lose the principal rights of direct ruling the community power or, the individual’s public freedom will be lost. The second part holds the view that the property rights originated from the feudal monarchy rather than from the secular concept of commercial property. Property right is the right of rule, which is supreme, stems from a divine pedigree and is equal to all the supreme power where there is no more divine power above it. Only when we believe that the property rights belong to the owners’ divine property, we enter the modern society in a true sense and, the concept is the foundation of our modern society. Western civilization differs from all other civilizations just because of their rule of agreement. If collective actions in a society are making decisions by majority rules, the society can be called a republic one; otherwise it is an authoritarian nation. Majority rules are the rules of politics; otherwise they will lead to personal arbitrary.
