    Of course it’s voluntary. You choose what you buy, when you do it, how much and from whom.

    If someone held you on gunpoint and told you to buy their product, that would be involuntary.

      You can choose what, when, how much, and from whom, but you are still are still forced to do so. Choosing which person puts me at gunpoint doesn’t make it voluntary

      You are forced to buy food, shelter, healthcare, a vehicle (US). You are forced therefore to have a job to pay for these things. Employers know this, and suppress wages with those together, the proverbial gun.
