The only appropriate amount to tax anybody is 0.

Where does that leave you funding commonly useful services? (Military, Police, Roads, etc.)

[golergka]

Tolls and subscriptions, obviously.

This makes me wonder about the free rider problem. If a hostile force invades the country, what do you do with the people that are delinquent on their "Military Defense" subscription?

[golergka]

They wouldn't be able to live there in the first place. If you don't pay, you don't get the service.

The secret ingredient that separates a fee from tax is the same that separates sex from rape: consent.

Then there’s no difference in outcome between the options you’ve described. Nobody’s forcing you to live here, you have given consent.

[golergka]

That's not true. Most countries will want their share of your property of you try to move out, and some like US will try to tax you regardless of where you live.

This is the correct answer. Disturbing how some people bay for the blood of the rich even if the wealth was gained legitimately and voluntarily.
