I looked up anarchy and these are the meanings that came up:

an.ar.chy \'an-*r-ke-\ n [ML anarchia, fr. Gk, fr. anarchos rulerless, fr.
   an- + ar]chos ruler - more at ARCH- 1a: absence of government 1b: a state
   of lawlessness or political disorder due to the absence of governmental
   authority 1c: a utopian society having no government and made up of
   individuals who enjoy complete freedom 2: absence or denial of authority or
   order : DISORDER 3: ANARCHISM

When I said that there is an advocation of anarchy, I was referring to 
definition 1b: a state of lawlessness of political disorder due to the 
absence of governmental authority. 

Without taxes the government has no income.  Without income the 
government has no authority.

So, that was that.
