Imagine there's no taxes. No one taking their cut of what YOU worked for. What if you were paid in gold and silver at the end of the week?
How hard would you work? How much effort would you put into a project or task, if you knew that you would receive 100% of the value of your work in cold, hard metal at the end of the week?
If there is no way to escape the theft of taxation, someone who played no part in the effort of your job, taking their fair share....then at least invest what you can into precious metals!
I would work pretty hard for a company that paid employees in 1 ounce gold coins at the end of the week though!
No mattter if your investing budget is small or large, begin today saving away a little silver or gold!
Please upvote, Resteem, and move some fiat paper and digits into real money while the prices are great!
Keep your own money!?!?
What kind of crazy, sound economic lunacy is this!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
;)
What a notion! Owning yourself? How radical. Who would build the roads if we owned ourselves?
😊
If only tax slaves wanted more freedom.
excellent post. would be great to be paid in silv/gold....thanks upvoted and following!
That would be amazing. Even just one or the other. No taxes or get paid in PM's. Baby steps. :)
Retake the money!
Buy what you can with crypto. Get paid what you can with crypto. Mine crypto if you can. The more we transfer our lives to free market exchange media, the less power they have.
Change "crypto" there for gold, silver, toasters, grass clippings, peaches, whatever!
I love the idea. I'll take gold, silver and the change in copper.
I liked your article so much that I not only upvoted it but I resteemed as well. Congrats.
Thank you @ronaldoavelino!
I wish i got paid in precious metal no one would even know about it lol
😎
...One can only dream! BTW, I noticed you blacked out the serial number on the bar. Was that you or did you find the photo like that? I ask because I've often wondered just how traceable those serial numbers are. If that's another thing to consider I will start doing the same. Thoughts?
Serial numbers are handy for 401k and insurance purposes. To prove ownership. I'd just rather not share them. I think many others don't care if they share.
thanks for the reply!
Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold
In a goofy voice: What about the roads. Meanwhile privately paid roads are so much nicer and better taken care of than roads paid by taxes, and people keep asking that same question. I scratch my head every time.
Yes, the whole system will come crashing down, without everyones' cash. Potholes, cats sleeping with dogs, general unease 😉
I'd work for over a grand a week as well lol
if anyone is after investing let me know I help people find deals follow myblog and you can see or just hit me up I don't charge you anything because I'm an affiliate and I get paid if you buy so hit me up we can help each other
I get an ounce of silver for the first hour of my work and fiat for the rest of the day. Its a great deal for my boss as well as me. He buys in bulk at these low prices and so when the price does rise, he will still have a big supply on hand for me for a while.
But if we were all paid in gold and silver coins only, think how much fun it would be to SPEND IT!!!
It sounds like you have a good boss!
Yeah, he's ok... Lol... He's got a great worker too, if I do say so myself. : )

In such a world lead would be a precious metal. What are you going to do if I take your gold or your employer stiffs you and doesn't give you the gold you earned?
How to keep jihadists from taking your gold and women?
I would do the same thing that I would do if you took my cash...introduce you to some of that lead precious metal. Not you personally, but the person that was robbing me. If an employer stiffs his employees, they will no longer work for him and his company closes?
If the person robbing you was smart they would wait until you left your compound to go to market to barter your goods for antibiotics or smart phones and then steal your gold and turnips. Or it would be an army of Islamic jihadists that would see your lead and raise you some RPGs. That's if you are lucky and you don't wake up to a Chinese airstrike.
It's manageable to defend yourself from individuals, even that level of security takes money and time to achieve. However for an individual to defend themselves from a state or organized Jihadists is quite impossible. That's the problem with not having a state that you pay taxes to provide security.
Employers stiff their employees on the regular and yet they do not go out of business, they just hire other people and stiff them. The way that we stop it now is using class action law suits based on violation of wage and hour laws. If your employer stiffs you then you threaten to call the AG and then they send you your check, or the AG makes them pay triple. I have done that and I have been part of a class action suit against my employer.
In Anarchist fantasy land a independent non governmental arbitrator would just take the place of the courts right? But how do you get your employer to actually agree to the arbitration, why would they bother to participate without the threat of government force making them comply?
I think that you're putting too much thought into this. We will all continue to pay our taxes. We won't be paid in gold or silver. Jihadists won't visit my farm to steal my paper.
Government will continue to grow larger, more in debt, and more agressive towards its own citizens and their vanishing rights. No worries.
I have actually been a party to such a class action suit and also had to threaten an employer with reporting them to the AG and in both cases been paid. I have also had an under-the-table job where I was stiffed and in that case my only resort, at least all I could think of, was to resort to violence. That made me feel better but I didn't get my money.
That's the difference between enjoying the protection of the state and anarchy.
Here in America our rights are vanishing?
more aggressive?
Again, I am trying to politely let you know that I don't really care to have you post all of your political beliefs on my blog. The same reason as I avoid political arguments with others in person or on facebook etc. I respect others' beliefs and values, just don't care to engage in debate over them. Maybe just take all of this and copy it all into a separate post on your own page? I am neither agreeing or disagreeing with you, I simply don't care. This was not intended as a political post.
maybe I will do that, if I posted all my political beliefs on your blog there would be little else ;)
