Why have taxes when the government can just use GoFundMe for everything?
Taxes are not american. Fundraisers are. Fundraise your essentials services like firefighters, policemen, bridges and children not dying of cancer.
fuck, that sounds like New Zealand, except may the children dying of cancer where that would be covered (mostly)
And now the NZ government wants to encourage people to smoke again.
All for a better country and future
Don't forget politicians. Millionaires or Billionaires asking for money from the general population to fund the campaign so they can get the job.
Ha ha ha. I think fundraising is the only income less reliable than usage fees.
