Cash or not, you "owe" a % to the gov.
@machtyn So just start selling shit with a 200 dollar investment that you don't know if you will be successful or not? Running a business costs more than 200$ so any attempt to build the business that is more than the license means that you lost more than you put in. Unless you suggest to take out a loan and get into debt based upon nothing more than a "maybe"... which seems very unwise to me.
If you're on their radar you get fucked.
I have to jump in the shower and then head out guys. So I'll TTYL.
@Seven Of Swords It depends on the business. If you make an e-book, youtube videos, website it will cost nothing (static sites hosted on GitHub Pages with Cloudflare is free). If you make physical products, yes, it will cost more. If you sell your services it depends. You can start paying nothing and as you start making more and more money getting an LLC or S-Corp may be beneficial for taxes. Then, it will cost $200. You can start a business without any license (depending on the business - selling food is regulated and so depends on laws).
Like @Lilu said - you could become a tradesman in a union/open shop for 5-10 years to gain skills then whenever you feel skilled enough you can become your own "shop" and compete in the market.
For those types of businesses, you'll need licenses/insurance/etc.
In case people sue for tort law.
So, freedom with constraints is your solution?
Not my solution. It's the current system.
So why not change it?
We're not designing better solutions here. Unless you're a policy maker... we have no say in that.
Why aren't you?
Why use the current political system as the method of change?
Its clearly dogshit so we have to think of new systems of change instead...
It's not change. It's survival. Just like with going your own way.
You can lobby, leave or ghost.
Then why not think of new ways to survive rather than the current system's bullshit constructs of what survival is?
If you lobby, I'd support you!
I personally feel like I am doing well in this system because I am very unconventional in wealth, health and career.
It's not, lol. Lobbying doesn't do shit most of the time.
How about other methods of change that would not require a government or even the invention of a new political party?
Like?
Well... one way could be for a massive worker drop out all across the world.
Satan is the government. Who did satan go after..... *THE WOMAN*
@IceRGodZ I suggest you max out 401k, IRA and HSA every year. It's $27,450 tax advantaged for 2018. It lowers your taxable income too.
And most women are chewing up the government LOL
Billions of people deciding to drop out of the work force, employment and making new systems that are not dependent upon wage labor, money or governments.
@Seven Of Swords If we did that, the government's answer is immigration. Workers leaving is the same as people dying.
Oh, billions? Never will happen.
People need to eat.
@machtyn The people that push papers for immigration would drop out as well...
What do you think would happen if millions of people decided to quit working for the government?
men are leaving workforce
Well, if that happened... basically, a unionization strike of the entire working force... then yes we could do whatever we wanted.
My gen are lazy to work like me
We were not taught to like jobs
We are fucked in the futureeee XD
@Seven Of Swords Why do you think student loans were given out to everyone? Why do you think subprime mortgages were given out? Why do you think credit cards with 30+% are given out?
