The similarity between slavery and taxes is that taxes are a modern form of slavery.
Also taxes discriminate against the poor, since the rich can afford to use every possible tax shelter.

Have to agree with that. But look at the raising number of people who are fleeing nations which are taxing them to death. But I agree that such an option is available only for the super-rich. For example, a majority of the wealthy French elite migrated to other nations after Hollande raised the income tax to 75%. Again, only the rich could afford.  Sad

They can only do that cause Britain & the City of London are a tax heaven, in some way. If the EU, the US, China, Russia, Japan etc. sat together and made sure the rich are taxed everywhere, it would help a lot. Of course they wont do that cause they are all bought by big business and big business likes the current system...

I am self-employed and I am furious that large corporations pay less taxes than my small "mom and pop" buiz. I should setup a LLC in a tax haven too. Costs less than 1000 Euros to do so.

The power to tax is the power to destroy. I think income tax and property tax are just wrong. What do you think?

Why would they be wrong? They help you and others in times of need, for example if you are sick or lose your job. I don't know about the US, but in most Western European countries there is some social security for that event. I am happy to pay for roads, for welfare, and for health care. I am not so happy paying for industry subsidies and military expenses, but that doesnt make taxes inherently wrong, it just reminds me that the democracy isnt really working the way it should.
