Quakers have been trying to implement a form of this on religious grounds. At a used bookstore, I found a book(1) about Marian Franz that illuminated the history behind their attempts. Weirdly enough, there was a personal dedication in the front by David Gross(2), one her colleagues and someone who wrote extensively about the 'War Tax Resistance'. I'm not religious, so it kinda made me sad, but that book sent me down a rabbit hole. Could you live on 20k a year to avoid income tax and contributing to a war effort? Its impressive.
