When it's over, I'm never going to pay taxes again. Neither are you.

Oh, you will

It may not be in the standard U.S. greenback, but you will pay one way or another.

Roads don't build and maintain themselves

Imagine ... if you dare ... the remains of 94 million useless eaters (today) building and maintaining roads (tomorrow). That's why we won't be paying taxes after things are said and done.

well heres a thought. only tax those who DRIVE and actually use the roads.

Or they could TAX public transportation instead of thinking PRIVATE should pay for it.

This:

a white cotton T-shirt contains roughly 570 gallons of water, 11 to 29 gallons of fuel, and a number of toxins and emissions including pesticides, diesel exhaust, and heavy metals and other volatile compounds – it also generally includes child labor. Accounting for those costs and their real social, human and environmental impacts has totally different implications for how we should organise production and consumption than current predatory capitalism."

Is kinda scary it seems so foreign.

In an ideal world....yes. What that means to humans in the short term? Pretty spooky.

A great read

14% tax on new purchases. No income tax, no food, road, property tax. No IRS.

It's only months away now.

Maybe.

Or maybe capitalism is just as dead-in-the-water as socialism was in the days leading up to the collapse of communism.

Hard to say really. From where I'm standing, it looks like Capitalism has lead us directly to a concentration of power in a tiny elite (money = god = control).

Brexit is preparation for a false flag event.

They are going to need an enemy for Europe in order to keep the EU together and the stage has been set with the Middle East and the influx of migrants.

This makes sense. Arab Spring was five years ago - we were all glued to it.
Now it's the Western commoners who need to stand up and say "enough!

The citizenry is no longer oblivious. The uprisings are right on schedule.

It's an exciting, and scary, time to be alive.

It's not a coincidence that the events in the ME in the last few years have lead to the breakup of the EU.

They will need an enemy to keep it together.

a reply to: onequestion

I think you're right - it is not a coincidence. It's a domino effect.

Planned and controlled? I don't know. But the internet and global communication for all is the venue.

Seems to me, people everywhere are getting fed up with the "leadership." I know I am!

I don't THINK this will happen peacefully,the elites rolled in UN elements to VA for a REASON me thinks...

I NEVER will figure out how anyone would believe Arpanet hasn't been monitored ever since it went private?
Isn't THAT what the computer in Utah will use for algorithic calculation?
JUST waiting for the A.I.

The government isn't that irresponsible. If you want to roll everything into a sales tax what you'll most likely see is a rate of about 40% with a monthly rebate of $1200 to each person.

That's for federal, more if you include city and state.

Of course, from your post you seem to hate the gas tax, yet what you're arguing for is a gas tax on everything (and at a higher rate).

Great article and great guy.. (This guy is ridiculously well read, check his Amazon profile and his hundreds of reviews. This guy goes through books like I go through pasta..)

But...... the article is actually from 2014..

a reply to: Aazadan

I don't hate anything. Hate is a purly useless emotion. There will be no gas tax either.

Throw away everything you know...a new world of peace and love is coming in your lifetime. Keep your mind open and embrace possibilities when presented to you.

a reply to: yuppa

all the stuff we use and eat arrives on trucks whether it was Wal-Mart or Amazon. Everyone benefits when our transportation infrastructure is properly maintained. Can gas taxes alone cover that?? I think they should be able to if we were more efficient with road construction and developed new methods to pave. How long have we been using the same asphalt and cement highway?? Is there a possibility for developing some new kind of material to make our roads from so we can reduce the tax burden??

That's not an issue with capitalism. All forms of government and economic systems are corruptible and progress toward corruption.

That's an issue with people sitting in front of the TV and not doing their part

People don't fight for transparency, allowing corruption to breed behind closed doors. We've allowed our financial system to be easily corrupted by not demanding transparency and accountability. Many politicians have tried to fight for this but fail because they don't have the support of the ignorant masses.
