If there must be taxes
Then I support Universal Basic Income with a flat sales tax for all registered corporations including religious organizations that function as corporations
But no sales tax or any tax at all for individuals not registered as corporations.
If someone is allowed to use corporate status as a legal shield in court trials then they should be required to pay the sales tax
@shortstories @basedbagel
Customers pay sales taxes, not corporations.
In the system I am proposing if there must be taxes
A customer who is not a corporation who is buying from someone who is not a corporation would not pay sales tax
In all other transactions such as
A corporation buying from a seller who is not a corporation
A corporation buying from a corporation
A corporation selling to a customer who is not a corporation
Only corporations would be required to keep records of taxes & to file tax rrcords
> if there must be taxes
Yes there has to be taxes. I don't like it either but that's how it has to be.
The Ancap fantasy is just that. A fantasy.
You either going to be paying governments or local warlords.take your pick
@Zeb @basedbagel
A $10 product with $1 sales tax means the corporation would make $1 less profit then selling the same product for $11 with $0 sales tax and the customer would pay $1 more than the same product for $10 with $0 sales tax
The customer would lose $1 more on the transaction due to the tax and the corporation would make $1 less profit on the transaction through the tax but the government would only gain $1 and not $2 due to the tax
In a sense both buyer & seller pay the tax
