Taxes are entirely exploitative & unnecessary.

Production & trade are critical to human survival & are not forms of exploitation because they are voluntary.

And yet if you say this to the average normie, they are so brainwashed & so bad at the most basic logic that they will often laugh or act dismissive of such a ridiculous notion.

The obvious proof of the first statement is that without production & trade there would be nothing to tax, but without taxation, production & trade would exist in far greater abundance & as a result more problems would be solved.

#Bitcoin & #agorism for a world free of political parasites.

Taxes spent on an entity that creates a predictable and secure trade environment (both protecting the physical jurisdiction as well as reliably adjudicating property disputes) are arguably value for value but are of course exploitative when levied unfairly (which is basically every time) or there is no method to opt out (also basically every time)

In other words I could maybe conceive of a fair tax in my mind or on paper but in practice I don’t personally know of one that has ever existed

If it's voluntary it's not a tax

Right, then it’s a service fee

If the goal was actually to be of service (satisfacfion of others being a chief concern) then funding would be voluntary.

Threats & coercion are used because they intend to do things that no one wants.
