are you saying all subsidies

2017-02-14 02:08:23 UTC  

IF GOVT IS BASED ON EQUALITY, IT WILL RAPIDLY EXPAND THAT TO A PROACTIVE PROGRAM

2017-02-14 02:08:28 UTC  

YES NUKE ALL SUBSIDIES

2017-02-14 02:08:29 UTC  

AND WELFARE

2017-02-14 02:08:34 UTC  

AND ENTITLEMENTS

2017-02-14 02:08:36 UTC  

what about family tax benefit and stuff?

2017-02-14 02:08:41 UTC  

i don't believe in that but a lot of conservatives do

2017-02-14 02:08:59 UTC  

IF WE GET RID OF ENTITLEMENTS

2017-02-14 02:09:03 UTC  

WE MAY NOT NEED INCOME TAX ANYWAY

2017-02-14 02:09:28 UTC  
2017-02-14 02:10:16 UTC  

MODERNITY IS DEATH

2017-02-14 02:10:19 UTC  

THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF IT

2017-02-14 02:10:28 UTC  

IS TO RID OURSELVES OF SOCIALLY-ACCEPTABLE INDIVIDUALISM

2017-02-14 02:10:32 UTC  

AND GOVERNMENT OF COURSE 😃

2017-02-14 02:11:00 UTC  

what would replace income tax to pay for vital services? or should vital services be delivered a different way

2017-02-14 02:12:30 UTC  

WHAT VITAL SERVICES?

2017-02-14 02:12:38 UTC  

GOVERNMENT WOULD PAY FOR MILITARY, MAYBE SOME ROADS

2017-02-14 02:12:41 UTC  

ALSO

2017-02-14 02:12:45 UTC  

THERE IS CORPORATE TAX

2017-02-14 02:12:54 UTC  

KEEP IN MIND OUR BUDGET WOULD BE 40% OF WHAT IT IS NOW

2017-02-14 02:12:56 UTC  

for instance emergency services which rely on integration to be as effective as they are

2017-02-14 02:13:10 UTC  

THOSE ARE LOCAL

2017-02-14 02:13:23 UTC  

REMOVE PUBLIC SCHOOL AND THERE ARE PLENTY OF FUNDS

2017-02-14 02:13:25 UTC  

FROM SALES TAX

2017-02-14 02:13:30 UTC  

OR EVEN LOCAL CORPORATE TAXES

2017-02-14 02:14:22 UTC  

Schools tax the fuck out of me. I've not had kids attend in quite some time.

2017-02-14 02:15:12 UTC  

what about for larger scale emergencies like brush fires?

2017-02-14 02:15:39 UTC  

which tend to involve specialist equipment which is generally prohibitively expensive

2017-02-14 02:16:34 UTC  

some local communities by consequences of their demographics wouldn't be able to pay for stuff like that

2017-02-14 02:17:32 UTC  

definitely rezoning/gerrymandering/whatever could make it easier, but that problem will probably still exist somewhere

2017-02-14 02:19:02 UTC  

i'm not trying to poke holes in any beliefs, just trying to understand your notion of how a society with smaller government would operate

2017-02-14 02:20:02 UTC  

The only case I see somewhat viable for an income tax *may* be for military, border sec, etc. Even that is iffy.

2017-02-14 02:20:25 UTC  

Taxing individual income is silly.

2017-02-14 02:21:55 UTC  

SCHOOLS ARE A DISASTER

2017-02-14 02:21:57 UTC  

Most local problems could be resolved locally.

2017-02-14 02:22:01 UTC  

EXPENSIVE AND USELESS, PLUS PROPAGANDA

2017-02-14 02:22:07 UTC  

I AGREE: LOCAL RESOLUTIONS ARE BETTER

2017-02-14 02:22:18 UTC  

IF LOCAL COMMUNITIES CANNOT COOPERATE, THEN PERHAPS IT IS NATURAL SELECTION

2017-02-14 02:22:36 UTC  

@profagonist I WOULD HAVE A SOCIETY WITH NO GOVERNMENT

2017-02-14 02:22:40 UTC  

ARISTOCRACY FOR LEADERSHIP
