If you want to "win", you'll still have to explain how the payment of
taxes happens on a voluntary basis by people deciding that not only do
they owe something, but that they know who to pay it to when no one is
asking.

All this stuff about "why won't the cyclists pay ..." is just
nonsense.  If the relevant authorities set taxes, people pay them.  If
they don't, they don't.

It is mischievous to suggest that the non-payment of non-required
taxes implies some kind of refusal or demand for special treatment.
