If Netflix did that, i'd sue them
Netflix hemorrhages millions of dollars yearly. Alot like the governments.
It's not a profitable company that's for sure
But if you live in Russia I understand why private everything sounds appealing. But trust me it's no way to go.
WHat does it matter? Point was that if someone forces you to pay for shitty service, without leaving you alternative, payment cant be considered legal
I do think what tax dollars we do give should result in great service though
I pay for shitty roads made of my ass probably, they maintain them so badly that minecraft looks as better place to live
Like I saw what Domino Pizza were repearing
all russian roads look like twice worse than that
My issue is with how my taxes are used. That seems to be your issue as well.
No, my issue is existence of taxes
I don't think you've got enough of a scope to make such a hardlined decision yet.
Even if they were used to polish my back and buy me whey protein i'd support libertarian party that wants to get them as low as possible for now and to 0 later
In order to live in a city you have to pay someone unless you own it all. There is zero difference in paying a toll vs a tax to use roads. Assuming both maintain them well.
Someone will take your money
It's life
RIght, that's why we need to nationalize bakeries
I mean I will be paying for bread still
Paying to private road owners is not tax
If I sit home all day and never leave I will probably never gonna need to pay them
Not if only one company owns your road into town
There is a reason why roads are public
They are vital to commerce and economy.
they were private in USA before 1840 I think
It is in the interest of all citizens for roads to be good.
They might have been
But I doubt it was optimal
Btw. Do you play EVE online?
there is book that has info about it - "Uncle Sam, monopoly man"
Yep, I play eve
Figured from avatar
I will read the book
But I promise you that just like all government is bad. So is all private. Extremes are named the way they are for a reason.
You won't like life at the extremes. If you truly want self sufficiency then a productive farm far away from cities is your best bet. A homestead.
Who is talking about self sufficiency?
I want not to be stolen from and keep my property while choosing who to pay
that's it
I'm simply saying you won't be able to do that in any system. And much less so at the extremes.
Communism is god awful
And so is it's polar opposite
