I was responding to a comment about “ruining everything good with taxation”.

Sounds to me like taxing WFH fits the description of "ruining everything good with taxation".

I mean, there's already a progressive income tax. Why should society create incentives to commute to work?

[dwaltrip]

I wasn’t commenting on a tax on WFH. I haven’t thought about it much, but I’m likely in agreement with you on that issue.

You can collect taxes without ruining everything

> You can collect taxes without ruining everything

True -- which explains why the following rhetorical question is indeed a RED HERRING.

> Examples of large, modern societies flourishing without the use of taxation?

No one has suggested zero taxation anywhere in the thread that I can find...
