Tax loopholes...the telltale sign of corporatism.
Ripping up pavements would cost the taxpayer yet more money.
Police not responding to calls would result in a "free-for-all" area of crime, where innocent people could get punished as a result. I'm thinking about Facebook employees who do pay taxes, etc. Same goes for "law isn't enforced if a murder occurs".
Removing protection from fire endangers other people. If I don't pay taxes, but my house catches fire, it endangers the houses and people around it. Why should other people be put at risk?
Surely rather than just remove these services, it would be easier to enforce tax law? Close the loopholes; prosecute / fine people who don't pay the correct amount. Simple.
(February 18, 2013 at 11:08 am)The Germans are coming Wrote: I have this idea that if a company or individual refuses to pay taxes, the pavement should be ripped of the roads arround his/her/their house/compund, police should no longer respond to calls, neighter should fire departments or medics, if a murder occurs law isnt inforced through a court and the army should no longer have the obligation to protect that terretory.Whilst I agree with your attitude, I think some of the examples you gave are silly.
I think if people face the worst possible consequences for their actions they might learn.
