"Nine Tenths of everything is tax. Everything you buy has a complicated history of robbery: land, raw materials, energy, tools, buildings, transport, storage, sales, profits. Don't forget the share you contribute toward the personal income tax of every worker who has anything to do with the process.
Inflation by taxation: there are a hundred taxes on a load of bread. What kind of living standard would we enjoy if everything cost a tenth of what it does? What kind of world? Think of your home, your car, your TV, your shoes, your supper- all at 90% discount!
Government can't fight poverty- poverty is its proudest achievement." Mary Ross-Byrd
Shouldn't you be citing L. Niel Smith for that one?
