could you do me a favor and go start your wondrous utopia in some jungle or desert somewhere and stop trying to destroy my country with your mental diarrhea?
society has shared resources. it needs them. those resources need to be governed
there is no way to get around these simple logical rocks of gibraltar
and the money of all the sleazeballs from other countries who take advantage of their banking secrecy rules to stash their ill-gotten money there, which is then used to supplement the swiss economy
so maybe kuwait? oh wait, oil wealth picks up the slack from low taxes there
look: you want an example of what low to no taxes means, you need to find an example where there is no supplemental income flows
there is no endless universe of morally repugnant corporations untouched by human judgment
especially since bad corporate behavior will eventually hurt the bottom line, and therefore the investor
if someone says to you "this moral behavior is too expensive, i'm looking for a better return, i'm taking my money, good bye" then let that investor go. because that is a soon-to-be poor investor
the idea that a moral company has to be immoral to compete doesn't follow
because the immoral companies will suffer financially as a consequence of their behavior, and therefore represent worst investments, not better
You remain mired in medieval nonsense. And you will continue to remain poor, unhappy, and mired in belligerent wars, due what you emphasize as important in your societies.
Well Cypher stands for 0, and Neo stands for 1. Between them is the love triangle of Trinity. Markov chains, Mandelbrot sets, Cantor's proof of the existence of transcendental numbers is constructive, post hoc ergo propter hoc, cogito ergo sum, quid pro quo: there will be no more Matrix sequels.
a place like bermuda isn't a valid country that you compete with on tax rates. bermuda's tax laws are designed to parasitically leach off the fruits of another country's labors
the idea that you think this is about fair competition is a joke, a lie, or a delusion
VBScript to archive files accumulating in a folder, run on a Windows scheduled task
in life you just gotta get something done be damned theoretical perfection. and most of the time you dealing with unimportant stuff not nuclear submarines
There once was a guy named McAfee Whose drug of choice was not coffee He collapsed in the jail But his heart did not fail Just let him snort some coke off the ass of Tawnee Taffy
so you tell me what the proper objective description should be of someone who believes the rant i pulled that quote from above will get them on a terror watchlist

i don't disagree with you at all. taxes can be reformed, cleaned up, lowered. governmental policies can and should change to spend less
but i'm not arguing with you, you who speaks of strawmen
i'm arguing with the guy who says we don't need any taxes at all

they are teenagers
and i am not insulting actual chronological teenagers, many of whom exhibit wisdom beyond their ages
these people are cognitive teenagers
don't let it bother you. merely quietly divest yourself of all financial and social ties to such people when you encounter them, so you aren't damaged
then let them fall due to their own poor choices guided by their poor thinking. it may take time, but it is inevitable
moral behavior is harder in this world. but it's the only kind of behavior that endures
there is no endless universe of morally repugnant corporations untouched by human judgment

people will judge an organization if it defiles the society it is supposed to be a part of. that hurts the bottom line
the previous observation nullifies your comment
maybe i would consider answering you if you were capable of constructing an analogy actually analogous with what we are talking about
monaco is a tiny parasitical entity. funded by the rich from other countries
maybe somalia is the example you were reaching for
we will always have taxes. or we have somalia
that doesn't mean taxes can't be reformed and cleaned up and pruned
but no one serious in this world thinks civilization is possible without taxes and a strong central government
Look around you. Civilization. Not possible without taxes and a strong central government. Sorry fanboys.
Restraint is not merely legal. Restraint is about your own internal compass. If you prove not to have one, I will hold that against you.
Europe advances, India advances, China advances.
You remain mired in medieval nonsense. And you will continue to remain poor, unhappy, and mired in belligerent wars, due what you emphasize as important in your societies.
Please grow up.

he requested asylum in Guatemala, that was denied, so he gets deported to his country of citizenship: the USA
what happens next is he will probably be extradited to Belize for murder, when the Belize govt present the USA with an extradition order
is he allowed nag reminder pop ups in the courtroom?

"you cannot rule out the possibility of supernatural beings existing" is an absurdity because you cannot rule out the possibility of anything existing

every utopia and cult has enthusiasts who drive everything forward by force of their will
eventually the bubble pops
give it time
myself, i think there is something interesting going on in this niche, but i don't think any one has figured out what that useful thing will be yet
mining bit coins is definitely not what is interesting, profitable, or useful
