Corporate tax is just as retarded as individual income tax.
The government has nothing to do with either activity. Property tax is the only kind of tax that should exist.
I feel completely the opposite. Property taxes effectively mean you never actually own anything, you're just renting it.
Sales taxes are the most elegant, since they capture all of a population, even illegals, and can scale with luxury items. Income taxes scale too but wealthier people make most of their money through financial instruments and have more ways of escaping even capital gains.
i can accept a property tax in a city, where space is limited.
out in the country, though? nah.
Get fucked. If I already paid for my property then I own it. I don't pay a rental fee on shit I own.
How about no income, property, corporate, or sales taxes? If there's to be a government, let it fund itself on tariffs.
An interesting proposal but one I'm not sure would work. I'd need to research more into tariffs before I could really evaluate such an approach. Personally I think straight sales tax makes the most sense. Everyone has to pay into it, and if you're doing huge industrial scale purchases you end up paying huge industrial scale taxes instead of loopholing everything like a fucking criminal.
Sales taxes cause burdens on local exchange, while tariffs cause burdens on international exchange. In both cases, you're losing wealth in the name of maintaining a state. In the case of tariffs, you're incentivizing local production, which feeds independence, while in the case of sales taxes, you're incentivizing international production, which feeds interdependence.
Actual rates are less interesting to me than matters of incentives. If pressure is to be imposed on the economy, I want it to be pressure to maintain small local production, and keep governments from getting to be too friendly with one another.
Property tax is the least excusable of all.
