I think this is basically it. But they think that's the final word so get flustered when they respond with: "No you owe us the money".
They seem to believe that they can benefit from services without paying for them or following the law. Fundamentally I like the idea of being independent from the nation... But if you want to use their roads, shops, health services, etc you need to abide by their laws and terms. They think they can just say some magic words and now they don't have to. It's insanity. Very literally, they must have some notable mental health issues to think this is logical.
They are basically anarchists which I like, except they still subscribe to english common law or something. Anarchy means that any authority needs to be justified or justify itself or else be null and void. So I kind of agree with their philosophy, since democracy in the US is like a joke. It's really literally a plutocracy with some minor democratic impact.
Of course in the real world they are nuts of course and their tactics are silly. And they tend to have bad ideas otherwise too.
