Governments can do an awful lot of things to collect taxes. For example a comment [1] to a similar story [2] suggests a benign one, that they "ask you to surrender the public keys that you are getting paid through". How to know there are no undisclosed keys? Much like they get people with untaxed money now: they spend more than they should.

Is there anything wrong with this argument?
