You say, "Williams, that would come very close to slavery if one person had the right to force someone to serve him without pay." You're right. Suppose instead of Harry being able to force a lab, doctor and pharmacy to provide services without pay, Congress uses its taxing power to take a couple of hundred dollars out of the paycheck of some American to give to Harry so that he could pay the lab, doctor and pharmacist. Would there be any difference in principle, namely forcibly using one person to serve the purposes of another? There would be one important strategic difference, that of concealment. Most Americans, I would hope, would be offended by the notion of directly and visibly forcing one person to serve the purposes of another. Congress' use of the tax system to invisibly accomplish the same end is more palatable to the average American.

But, they take more than a few hundred dollars out of my pay every month and it goes to other people who have not worked for it, in the name of Medicare, welfare, food stamps, WIC and so on.

And yes, it is slavery. IF I choose to donate a portion of my labor to someone else, that is my choice, when it is taken form me at the threat of deadly force, it is then slavery.

I am sure that people will argue it's not, but they are being disingenuous at best, and flatly lying at worst.
