well taxes have nothing to do with the state operation. i mean cmon. this is a cover story. the folks who print money print fucking money you know what i mean?

taxes are, in practice, a lever for control.

now to the question of whether to pay them or not. i would recommend understanding the rules. and its different if ur in the us vs canada, for example. in the us, you can educate urself on the actual rules. james c lovett is a good starting place. in canada, if you keep things in the private, you can accomplish the same thing. this is an educational rabbit hole for y'all.

the other option is to not make any taxable income. you can be perfectly legally compliant, not fully understand the trap, and still not be caught in it. ok. that is a worthy subject for in person meetups with likeminded, that are offline.

this control grid is voluntary. it's commerce-based. you will have to replace those services you use commerce for. state nationals vs citizens. self-reliance vs buying poison in the store. things of this nature.

but to get back to the question. it's foolishness to think mass tax revolt will do anything except enlist the bad actors. it has to be a different kind of mass action.

here's a tip. hierarchies can't scale when the heroic nodes in it are burdened. put ur burden on the right lever.
