Looking at the Austrian budget I cannot see how we could keep our standard of living and social systems and welfare state by cutting (let alone getting rid) of taxes. It would only benefit the rich and even then only if you are willing to live with crumbling infrastructure and poverty around you.
- the_ancient 10y agoWell that is a complex issue with wide ranging solutions. My overall point though, even if you believe society is best serviced with High Taxation and large government social systems at least be honest and identify that taxation is infact theft, I am willing to debate the multiude of solution for social problem and wealth inequality but I am not willing to debate if taxation is theft. It is, there is no debate. To address the social systems and welfare, I personally believe these systems are largely need because of government. Government creates the problem it then uses taxes to "solve" A stateless or libertarian society does not benefit the rich, in fact strong central planning and control (aka government) ensure the rich stay rich.
