I disagree on the premise alone. Tax should exist to pay for things that provide the public with better outcomes, from which everyone benefits.
Discussion
Firstly, in the debt based fiat system, one doesn’t need taxes, since the central government can just “print” the money (I.e. issue the additional debt). So taxes are just an additional lever to keep you “enslaved,” whilst productive.
Secondly, under a #Bitcoin standard, ironically, communities do need to pool their money for community services. Since it’s very painful though, communities will need to make tough choices as to what to spend their money on. The original US system was set up to make those decisions from the bottom up with sovereignty in decreasing order: family, community, city, county, state and federal. Of course, corruption has inverted that…
I actually don't disagree with anything you just said.
But if you don't see that a lot of people have used the corrupt system to their advantage for unearned gains, I dont think you are seeing reality.
Ok, but that's not a view consistent with being an "anarchist" you pretend to be.
Taxes require a small, armed, parasitic hierarchy pilfering the much larger mass of productive individuals for vague "better outcomes" , according to the gangsterment members' biased and self-serving opinions.
Groups of individuals - productive and parasitic - are all there really are. There's no such thing as the "public".
Tolerating that looting hierarchy is what enables the elite minority you call " the rich" to do whatever injustice you think they have done.
You can 100% have taxes on anarchy.
Anarchy is just about having no hierarchy. You still have rules, you don't have rulers.
People will still want to pull money together for public endeavours.
Pooling resources for some useful purpose is called charity or business partnerships, and done voluntarily.
They certainly provide better outcomes - in case of charity, even where gangsterment doesn't or even worsens outcomes.
Only two gangs pool resources coercively - mafia and gangsterment bureaucracy.
Both are as far as can be from anarchy by definition.
If it's proper for them to coerce money, it's certainly proper for a local charity to threaten putting you in a cage if you don't pay your anarchic "tax" to their outcome improvement cause, and do that if you don't agree to their extortion.
I think you are confusing where we are to where we want to be. Because I don't disagree with you in principle, but the implementations possible under this system are not that flexible.
Getting to where we want to be, starts with not wishing armed looting on anyone, and identifying that as an injustice, as in OP.
Those who do wish that upon a minority, deserve the same gangs pilfering them at least proportionally, and usually get robbed more; they don't have the resources to protect themselves.
Whether they are gangsterment members or one of their cronie leeches, anywhere in the "developed world" they are more "rich" than they think.
