Oh you can't refuse to pay taxes you get in trouble for that and your right to freedom is taken away.
No one can govern a country that way. It just won't work. That is why it has never really been the case that people can refuse to pay taxes because they don't feel like it, regardless of what you, or Scalia, think the constitution says.

Do you think the Founders or any regime since tolerated people simply refusing to pony up?
