So we should completely abolish taxes, then? I assume this is one of those plans where we privatize all government services and the free market makes everything perfectly efficient and utopic, except for the people who can't afford to pay their police bill?
- aminok 10y agoWe should only allow the government to raise revenue from a split-rate property tax and user fees for government services used. Non-payment of the former should only be punishable by land expropriation, and not imprisonment.
- PhasmaFelis 10y agoSo it's the "police bill" thing, then?
- aminok 10y agoUser fees would be for things like use of roads. Services like policing would be paid out of revenue collected by a split rate property tax.
