I agree with you, on the "Everything will be OK if we can just get the right people in charge *this time*" but what is the solution? I don't see the removal of tax helping the situation at all, only worsening the issue's we all ready see around us daily.
How will taking violence out of the equation make things worse?
How else are you going to help people who need it? Charity?..... It doesn't work. People are too greedy for it to work.
Yep, charity doesn't work, because the greedy government would rather make us all slaves taxed into oblivion so we have not a single dollar or minute in the day to spare for charity.
Yeah, its the governments fault you dont give to charity, not because you, and our whole society is pretty much based on greed, right? Pfft wake up man, don't lie to yourself.
And don't for one second think that I don't agree with you about the government being greedy, but that is not the issue when it comes to charity, greed is, everyone always wants more.
Tyrants, entirely separate from society, ultimately want you to have no money and liberty at all, and take more and more of it at gunpoint, with impunity. No, the government has a violent monopoly on greed. Try to make enough money (without bribing, or effectively bribing, the government, and not committing any crimes against your fellow man either directly or by proxy) to have a spartan living and donate to charity, and you will be penalized.
