Makes slaving away at that normal job feel real good knowing these state-backed thieves are the sole reason the country is going to shit and making your life unlivable.
They talk about a billion dollars like it's no big deal but the only way for a regular person to make a billion dollars is either to invent a service that's so good it becomes completely ubiquitous like Windows, Amazon, or Paypal, or to write the most popular book series ever like JK Rowling.
No, you don't earn a billion dollars. Those corps are allowed to get to that scale because it benefits the government. Microsoft, Amazon, and Paypal offer services to the US government that the government isn't allowed to do itself.
But when I say to just stop paying taxes, I get “ratioed” by thumbsy-downies. I guess everyone agrees that worshipping jews is the only way to behave. We can’t do anything else!
It's a good idea, but only works if basically everyone does it together. Which is another reason the "rugged individualism" psyop is pushed. The nail that sticks up gets hammered, so most people just keep their heads down and do what they're told.
Because 'just stop paying taxes' is one of those things that sounds good and, while I agree that it should be a option for people to opt-out of at federal taxes at minimum, it is impossible to do for pretty much everyone and would likely destroy their lives if they even tried it.
Would I like to not pay taxes? Of course. But the steps you would need to take to 'just stop paying taxes' is beyond absurd for all but a handful of people that are willing to go to the extremes needed to do something that is way more complex to actually pull off than it sounds.

Yes you do. Don't argue with me.
But it's the Internet. Arguing with strangers is what we do!

Just… stop doing it. It takes more effort to do it than not doing it. Just don’t do it. Like… what?
