This isn't a new idea. There are several ways people have successfully or unsuccessfully avoided paying applicable taxes. One I read was paying any taxes you 'should' have to pay to a charity instead of the gov. Of course some countries will still try to prosecute you but some may let you off. Of course there's also the issue that if everybody did this nothing would get paid for so it's always swings and roundabouts.
I agree with you, and would like to add some more on that, Tax and Donation are two different topic, It is hard to believe that nowadays tax and donation got mixed, tax to be payed for the services and security provided to business or Job we are into. Donation is a voluntary gift as of money or help services to the human, poor and needy people. Hope they understand these differences.
