Tax is a good thing and evading it means that you are not bringing back something into the community, it is natural that the government is going to hunt down money launderers because those taxes could be used to build projects that will benefit the many, I understand if some launder because the government is corrupt but with you evading taxes, you should at the least bring something back in the community.

Tax is a good thing? Who told you that? Nowadays, most of the tax money is being used to wage wars abroad and to pay the most unproductive members of the society. I am not in favor of tax evasion, but just saying that over-glorifying the tax collection is not necessary. If the tax structure is fair, then no one would be in favor of evading taxes. But when it becomes a way of punishing the successful people and rewarding the unproductive individuals, then it's purpose is put to question.

Did you read my whole reply though, you can pay your tax if you know that it is going to the right thing and not every country is waging wars, maybe your country does that but my country doesn't. The successful ones have more money and that means that they can give back more taxes, that's the way it is and if you want to change that then you should probably change the system yourself instead of whining that the rich are taxed too much when that is not the case.

It's not the riches who are being taxed too much, but the middle class which has to carry the poors and also the riches on their back through abusive taxation. We have no idea where the money we pay is being applied, because there are so many taxes over each very product and service. But if we are talking about third world countries most probably the biggest part of this money is being stolen someway.
If in your country the taxation policy works well and benefits the society, congratulations, you are very lucky and it's totally fine to be proud of it, but it's not the case in most countries. So I think people have the right of at least whining about the situation, as nothing else can be done.

Laudering money through fiat or bitcoin, doesn't matter, it's not an option to *protest*. Anyone doing this will be tracked and considered guilty towards the society. That is all authorities want angry people with the system to do.
