Its just how the world works, so you choose who you are slave or slave owner
As if one can easily choose which one he wants. Of course we all do not want to be slaves but what are we going to do if we are born in a poor family and would have to work ourselves out of poverty? 60-80% tax will not get you out of poverty. This is just unfair.
So ofc elite use war to force and scare people to take from them also but it's too much violance and destruction....slave tax or slave fee system will be without blood.- so you own nothing and no wars -
If you think there would be no violence if poor people kept poor then you are wrong. If the government was taxing their citizens that much their citizens would most likely rebel and inflict violence onto others due to poverty.
