Don’t pay taxes: govt love taxes! It make them super super wealthy and make you super super poor, govt don’t care if you starve to dead tomorrow, that’s your own fault to be basement dweller, govt rather spam their tweeter with non sense China FUD.
At First, what is government? Government is set of people who control already made law and can equally amend or abolish law made by previous leaders, so emphasising that government is fucking rich through taxe, actually your right, but have it in mind that government, any finance generated will be used for support of country economy, diversification of economy is through industries and taxes, and those incomes generated are the building block of country financial revenue, so government pay taxes like you after their regime, so from my understanding taxe for a country is to upgrade the source of country economy and everyone is government.
