Not sure if poverty will be erased when there is are no taxes. In times of crisis like we have at the moment a lot of people rely on government support. If you receive the minimum wage you are getting benefits from the government. Without taxes the government has no income to support families. Who will help out if you lose your job? Without the government in place we would need other forms of support. Saying that everything will be better without taxes seems a bit unrealistic to me. Also what about police or firefighters? They are all being paid by taxes through the government. I think we would be worse off without taxes completely.
