Considering how much benefit I've gotten from services pre-paid via my taxes in this past half-decade alone, I am absolutely loathe to try any scams to avoid being taxed at all. People who insist that "taxation is theft" don't live in the real worlds!

Totally agreed.

USian here. My first exposure to Clarkson was his appearance on "Who do you think you are?" in which he spent most of the time complaining that his family wasn't rich and famous enough because some ancestor invented what we call a Mason jar (but it was patented by someone else there). No insights, no thoughtful comments. Then there was the speed limit thing, and then all the other stuff. The linked article was more tolerant of him and the culture that encouraged him than I ever would be.

More tolerant than me, too.
