That is another very good point. I find these kinds of discussions very interesting as a philosophical exercise. But as a practical matter, you pretty much have to live your life as if everything you experience is real! Don't tell the IRS, "Taxes, like all reality, are an illusion." Otherwise you will soon experience the "illusion" of prison.
