RE: Reasonable Taxation System

in #politics7 years ago

It is a nice proposal, but it's not reasonable.

In the current political climate we will never have a voluntary society. The best we can hope for it to tackle some of the worst political mistakes that we inherited from our parents and grandparents.

I am very optimistic about blockchains, I think it can eliminate a lot of corruption and make things more clean.

But even with the best efforts, it might take centuries until we really have a decent voluntary society.

It takes a lot of time and effort to build up the free market, and to defend it, since every parasite wants to cash in a buck on other people's successes.

Sort:  

Like I said, no one would go for a system like that, we can only dream about it.

I don't think that is the right approach, I don't think freedom has to be drilled into people's heads.

It has to come naturally from within, so society, perhaps over time, will be shaped to be more voluntary.

We already made a lot of progresses in the past 1000 years, so it is an ongoing phenomena.

If the free market is let out of the bag, then eventually it will replace all ugly monopolies, and by then nobody in their right minds would choose the monopolist over the competitor that brings quality service for a cheap price.

The only thing that needs to be done at that point is to defend it.

The more valuable the economy it is, the more parasites it will attract. That is the big issue.
