As I say to all anarcho-capitalists: If you want to live on the land and not use any infrastructure whatsoever, then be my guest, you wouldn't need to pay taxes if you don't have any income ๐Ÿ‘

Here's a great series by AdamSomething for why arachocapitalism is stupid: https://youtu.be/HTN64g9lA2g

If you want to participate in society, taxes are the fees needed to keep it going. Funnily enough we live in a society with laws and concesequnces for breaking them.

If you live in the US, it's understandable why taxes bother you because your infrastructure is crumbling, but that's because your voting system sucks and you keep electing shitty governments. Taxes themselves aren't to blame.
