RE: A Simplified Taxless State: A Proposal (part one of three)
I have a simpler suggestion;
If you like the service, pay for it.
If you don't, don't pay for it.
If you have paid for it, enjoy the service
if not, and you want to use it, pay the rest an additional premium
The only problem with taxes is that they are involuntary.
Simpler suggestion if you find a deserted island. Until then one is getting services and has to pay for them. Otherwise one is stealing from other innocent people.
Not, really. It can happen if people ask for it. You have to consider that if one day the state dies, anarchic communities will emerge. Some, after some introspection, will decide to pay stipends for services. In other words, taxes. Those that don't like this will join other societies.
We are on the same page today. There are places on earth one can join and not pay taxes. E.g Liberland. Heck you can even join Singapore and pay minimal ones or go off the grid in Australia, Alaska, Canada and many other places on earth.
I sometimes don't understand all this obsessiveness from some anarchists with overthrowning the goverment or even going against principles of the goverment. Yeah democracy sucks but since there is nothing objective one can do about it, we better figure out other solutions and stop whining. The people who funded liberland did exactly. they offer a solution.
I don't see many anarchists though joining that country.
"Simpler suggestion if you find a deserted island."
No, because that's assuming that the proposed idea is anti-social.
Pay, get; don't pay, don't get, is a very obvious and social concept.
"Until then one is getting services and has to pay for them."
I can unsubscribe from Netflix. I can't unsubscribe from government.
Little problem there with the "services" received.
Let's call rape sex, shall we?
(How else would we be able to procreate?)
I lost my interest in replying at 'rape'.
That's fine; it's quite mutual.
Those who do not see what The State does as rape I have no interest in talking with; others can try to help you lift the veil of the delusion.
Yeah, just like I lost interest in being forced to pay for services that I didn't ask for, don't want, and don't receive. Yet you have no problem trying to justify why I should be robbed to pay for them.
