My 17 month old son looked me straight in the eyes today and said “dad, why do you pay taxes if the government just prints money out of thin air, never balances a budget, and yet uses your tax dollars to fund war/genocide you never voted for?”

What should I tell him?

"Bitcoin will fix this".

make guillotines great again

Because they have guns they will use against you and prisons to lock you in.

Also, they have blacks to give your money to.

Did you know the average cost of a black in America over their lifetime is 750k?

They’re more dangerous than nukes.

Son, finish your juice boxes before you start quoting Rothbard.

ROADS SON

THINK OF THE ROADS

weird my 17 minute old son just said the same thing

Chill out, dude - we’re working on it

How did he say the slash in “war/genocide”? This is very important.

THERE WASN’T ANOTHER WAY UNTIL BITCOIN!

Cuz ppl became so complacent and obidient than even if they get fucked in the ass they think is for their benefit and the greater good. Pls put it in baby language for him!😬

Tell him hallucinogenics may be banned soon and you won't be able to read minds. 😄

It’s ok son we have real money now and we can help everyone become free.

My 4yr old daughter asked a couple days ago “how much bitcoins” she has because we started a swear word “jar” months ago. She has stacked 57sats which is tallied on the fridge white board aka her self custody ledger. Great way to teach her organization, math and low time preferences.

Save in Bitcoin as early as possible

Because I'm a cuck to the government

You’re very advanced for your age and smarter than a lot of full grown adults.

Tell him you’re right son. I will never pay taxes again

Tell him:

“Well buddy, we pay taxes because if we don’t, the government gets mad.

They say it’s to fund roads, schools, and hospitals, and sometimes it is, but yeah, they also print money, run deficits, and spend on wars we never asked for.

It’s not fair. That’s why your daddy is smart and it is using and saving in Bitcoin. The government can’t take it away from me, and nobody else can. To stay out of jail, I pay the bare minimum of taxes. But the day will come when I’ll pay no taxes. Daddy knows what he’s doing.”

Tell him you love him, and you always will.

Son, I pay taxes because if I don’t, the people who print the money send me a very nasty letter… and I don’t want to collect letters, I prefer to collect memes.

Tell him that he will have plenty of time to worry about these things. Tell him to enjoy his life and not to worry for now.

Eventually the answer will be : "If I don't pay taxes, I loose all my assets, the government will require my employer to deduct an extra amount on my pay check and if it's not enough, they will send me in jail."

The lesson is: buy bitcoin in self-custody and only buy other assets that you can afford to loose. Be smart if you want to fight the tax injustice.

The world doesn’t progress as fast as you do, my dear son. A difficult skills to learn; patience for the corrupt and politically retarded. But at least now we can save in Bitcoin instead of a savings account, so they cannot use your savings for loans and war—without your approval.

To stop it or you’ll start taking meds for hallucinations.

Tell your 17 month old that you're hallucinating a talking toddler & you're going to get help

Tell him change is coming, son.

Buy Bitcoin.

I’m shook. My 8 month old son just did the same. Such an oppressive world we live in. Fortunately the next generation is based

I don’t know what you should say. But I see you, I hear you, I believe you

I'd be terrified my 17-month old son not only spoke at all, but regurgitated my choicest buzzwords. Good questions, but let the kid have a childhood first.

It's now tradition and if I fail to do so I will be forced to jail

Could have watermelons in it and everything.

Pretty please with a keffiyeh on top?

Hug first for sure

You guys still paying taxes? lol

‘Wow son, you have an amazing grasp of existential reality, and the pitfalls of world finance. Hard to believe you’re not even 2 yet!’ Must be your dad’s genes.

Who will build the streets, son?
