Tax season is coming, so let's talk about the income tax a little bit. I don't care if you are a communist,fascist, liberal, conservative, libertarian or anarchist. Everyone needs to understand this.

The income tax is the worst abomination that humanity has ever invented. Even if you are a hardcore fascist that supports big government and taxes for "paying your fair share", you are still a big moron if you support the income tax.

The income tax is literally the fuel for tyranny in the world. It is used to pay for the big military and big wars, it is used to pay for the tyranny at home. I guess if you are a fascist, you have no problem with that. But still it also pays for the wealth redistribution scheme.

Then if you are a communist you also don't mind it, since it came out of Marxism "from each according to his ability to each according to his need".

So I am talking to the sensible people out there, since the fascists will just want more war, and the commies will just want more welfare.

But I hope you are a sensible person, that has a brain. The income tax is slavery. A slave is taxed at 100% of his income, and given only food and shelter. You are a half slave if you get 50% of your income taxed, and given medical care and some basic police protection (which might turn out bad).

It's not just that it's slavery, but the government could in theory function on other taxes, so the elimination of the income tax is totally possible. Why? Because there wasn't an income tax for 200,000 years on human history, it only exists for 200-300 years, depending on region (probably more in Europe).

Even if you love the government, you still have to realize that the income tax has to go. All public programs can be funded from property taxes, sales tax, tariffs, license fees, alcohol tax, corporate tax, you name it. But the income tax has to go.

I would love if all taxes would go away, however that is unrealistic in the short term. But the income tax can go away easily. And I am talking about the personal income tax. I don't refer to the corporate/business taxes.

What is the point in taxing your work? Even the communists should be outraged by that, after all, you are enslaving the proletariat you idiot!

So there should be an unanimous agreement between all political ideologies, that the income tax is totally unnecessary, and it should be abolished.

Look at:

  • Alderney
  • Bahamas
  • Bahrain
  • Brunei
  • Cayman Islands
  • Kuwait
  • Monaco
  • Oman
  • Qatar
  • Sark
  • Saudi Arabia
  • United Arab Emirates
  • British Virgin Islands

These countries have no personal income tax, and they flourish. Some of them are oil countries, but not all of them. So they are literal proofs that you can easily abolish the income tax, and the government could still operate on other taxes. In fact the citizens of these countries have the highest income/capita in the entire world. It is necessary for human prosperity to abolish income taxes.

Furthermore as I said, there was no income tax for 200,000 years of human history, it only exists for about 300 years.

And is this really the cost of civilization? Paying 50% taxes just so that you can get shot in the head by a police officer? Or that you die before an ambulance comes to you, because the government ambulance service is just too slow?

Fuck it, people really need to wake up, and start demanding the abolishment of the income tax. It is slavery right before your eyes.

Later on the other taxes could be deconstructed, but the income tax is just so bad for the economy and human prosperity, that it should be abolished right now, in my opinion.

The whole monetary system as we know it is due for a major shake up.

Definitely, you can't keep taxing people, making them poor, and then giving them welfare after.

It's a horrible economic/financial system we live in today, it needs to change really fast. And taxes have to go, they have no meaning in a civilized 21 century society.

Stone age barbarianism and thug behaviour has to end, people need to seek for liberty.

What do you think it would take for the system to be turned on its head?

Cryptocurrencies and free speech. That is why they are cracking down on those, and the internet gets controlled more and more.

They want to ban encryption, they send police to your house if you write something controversial to Facebook, like the Gestapo did in Nazi Germany.

Tyranny is rising, as a pushback, to push the sheeps back into their cages and to not let them escape their slavery.

It's just a question if we can liberate ourselves faster than the tyrants can enslave us.

Only time will tell I guess. I'm glad to be an early adopter of cryptos. I agree with you.

Abolished slavery folks! This post is amazing!

I concede the value of abstracting collaborative effort in the form of something like taxation. I like forced donation instead. I believe that many individuals would express behavior of happily always taking without giving anything. That includes always taking resources in common. By taking a portion of their generated value and requiring them to allocate it in support of common infrastructure, but of their choosing, It overcomes the expression of the 'taker' negative trait while preserving the representative qualities of participating in the direction of society. It has an added benefit of complicating parasitic hierarchies by removing their direct access to the pool of collected effort.
