France takes a step toward citizen-based taxation
2535 sats \ 35 comments \ @Arceris 21 Oct Politics_And_Law
The French parliament has moved a bill forward which would establish world-wide citizenship based taxation of French citizens who do not reside or earn in France proper. This is similar to the regime that both the United States and Eritrea have.
As Christine LaGarde said "if there is an escape, that escape will be used." They are moving to limit access to the lifeboats.
Coupled with the ECB's recent paper initiating the (completely predictable) narrative that Bitcoin and bitcoiners can be seen as responsible for nocoiner and late-comer harm, as well as the Minneapolis Fed's recent paper, the leviathans have started to notice.

I have found it is best to define the words for discussions. Otherwise you talk past each other. Languages are anarchy. There are no rulers. So, in order to have clarity best define what you mean and never assume.

The reaction to lux pills is borderline circle jerk
They all have a common theme: we are all slaves to the state which is actually a corporation. Who are the shareholders?

This will be interesting to see how people react to this in Europe? I see a civil unrest is long overdue in France.

They probably won't react, they are only interested in making sure that the nanny state will protect their "free" social benefits.
For this, they will protest loudly for a couple of weeks and go back to being sheep while thinking they are lions.
disclaimer: I left France 25 years ago 😉

Why would they protest it mostly affects French people living overseas? They might even support it so that more people fund the bankrupt nanny state

I'm surprised this wasn't already the case. These states will literally do whatever they can get away with. They learned they can get away with a lot more over the past few years.

I will not focus on the absurdity of this taxation, but rather on the absurdity of how the state uses the tax. How this will be reversed to improve the lives of citizens... I already anticipate, NOTHING! People are crushed by excessive taxes due to problems that the state itself created

I didn't write about eliminating the existence of the state, because there is no basis in reality for that... I only mentioned the inefficiency of the state in providing a better life for its citizens. we must always criticize the private state as a supervisory body. No government can withstand the enormous pressure from the people.

Eventually, governments are again going to tax their citizens by the number of windows in their houses. It's just a matter of time... 😅

States will do everything possible to continue extracting wealth from us, the ordinary citizens, for this reason and for more, every day I am more convinced of my true long-term objective, to achieve a true "Systematic Freedom" to live quietly somewhere that remains the "Wild West" legally. And simply go unnoticed among the mortals who remain trapped in the FIAT system.

stop participating in the mind-control by the one-eye (govern-ment mono-eye) to the extent of your conviction and abilities, do not watch the state news too much.
money is controlled by religion, military, and banking thru information media - these are not separate institutions, but one system of control disguised as three - always has been this way, for millennia. in other words, money is a state of mind in which people pledge allegiance to some idol. on a related note, do not let bitcoin or satoshi become a god.
after all, the people are the participants; without participants there is no game.

I’m sorry but this sounds like a response from a juvenile. I’ve spent years considering options and keeping those options open seems to be a valid strategy. Good luck with your approach kid.

That’s interesting. I had no idea the US had such a system.

The US has had such a system for awhile, but from what I can tell it was formalized in the 1960s (along with an exit tax).
Eritrea did this and also enacted an exit tax. The story I heard is that the Eritrean finance minister went to school with (or was otherwise friends with) Timothy Geithner, and established it based on conversations with him. I can't find evidence of this quickly, but it's what I heard years ago.
