Burning tax money. I dare to bet this will never lead anywhere.

Inflation will do that for you. Government spending and money printing are the primary problems, the rest is noise.

You don't think employers have to compete for employees? Are you not putting down terms for your contract or do you just sheepishly accept anything offered to you? Not to mention the massive train wreck called state ran pensions, do you really want to get into that?

You confuse a colossal government that has its tentacles in every aspect of life with people working together to achieve things. All of the above can be achieved though the market arguable much more efficient than by far away bureaucrats at a fraction of the cost.

We've made government so involved that we can not escape. My radical believe is that I just want to be left alone. In theory I have enough investments to live off if it wasnt for taxes and inflation. In theory I could buy a plot of land and take care of myself. An easy and simple existence. I know all very radical..
