The government is just a gang which have succesfully granted themselves a defacto power advantage over all the other gangs.
It is a superorganism which moves to protect itself and gain power, just like the biggest wolf pack would.
Why do people not see this?
Yep, the government is literally a gang. Income and property taxes only exist to keep you working as an indentured servant, if you can't afford to pay, you will find out rather quickly that you don't actually have "universal human rights" like the right to adequate shelter, the right to own property, the right to freedom of movement.
You only get to retire because they find you useless compared to young fresh workers and physical jobs demand young fresh workers.
If income and property taxes didn't exist, you'd work enough to buy the food you want and some extra knickknacks.
You'd have a garden, you'd have livestock and life would be like a vacation where you work sometimes because you want to buy something specific.
Property taxes also legitimise land ownership. Land ownership is rediculous and only exists to promote government and gang jurisdiction.
If there was justice in this world, any man could walk o nto a piece of land that wasn't being actively used and build a house and farm and if the world was just he'd only use the land he needed and others would see his use and not mess it up.
It is psychopathic to "own" land, it's one thing to make use of it, it's another thing entirely to demarcate more of it than you are planning on using and then murdering any who wants to live close to you on a spot of land you are not actively using.
Yeah, if someone wants to build a house on your garden and livestock, shoot them, by all means, but if you want to shoot people because they are on a patch of land and "it belongs to you" is psycopathic.
I'm not sure I agree with this, just because I haven't finished thinking about it. Big topic. There are potential abuses if people do not "own" land. OTOH I believe the royals own most of the UK land and that is not right at all.
Well that's just it, any time you make a resource privately own-able, you eventually get to a situation where you have robber barrens who Lord over a caste of slaves who work for the privilege to have a space to live, which is a basic universal human right.
I'm not saying land ownership is unnatural, I'm not saying it's anti-capitalistic.
But if you believe in freedom and you want to construct a society that can never revert to feudalism and lordship, you must eliminate land ownership.
That doesn't mean have nothing.
That means that if you are going to use a piece of land for something, you go and make your intent known, if there are no disputes, you register your use and the law protects you to keep using the applied for land for the applied for purpose.
The purpose can't be "it's mine and I'll shoot any one who tries to do anything with it."
It's gotta be something like:
So the x acres of land gets registered to the house until it is demolished and you can sell the house, it's yours, you own the house.
Y acres of land gets registered to the farm, as long as it remains a farm and is actively used for farming purposes excluding rest years.
When the farmer retires, he imforms the registery that he retired, he keeps the house, but the unused land gets returned to registry for others to make use of.
That's my idea.
Everyone needs a place to live, no one will contest that, even in a limited space situation.
But we are in a limited space situation and there is no free land for free people to live on any where on this planet.
The only option is to live on "owned" property as an indentured servant.
Who are you applying to for permission? I think you are relying on trusting a centralised authority here. They would let you down in favour of a special interest or a government project for the greater good.
Communism isn't good for the little guy, even if it sounds like it is.
There is an option to buy land from someone else.
I'm not saying that there should be no minimum allotted land for a person. Maybe there should, that's the welfare state and maybe free people will agree to fund it because its nice to have a safety net in society.
Churches used to do this before the role was taken by government.
