Death and Taxes... well mostly taxes...

>The ability to raise crippling taxes existed and was excercised.

Not without troops to keep the peace.


This entire discussion is foolish. It has been established clearly that "taxes/tax rate/unrest" is actually an abstraction.

Licker: If you don't like the system, make your point courteously and hope that if enough people speak out, that IW will care. Frankly I'm with you in not being particularly happy with the whole economic system.

Keir: If you like the system, just say so. No need to rationalize about how the system is realistic, it isn't, and it's not even meant to be.

Now shake hands and be friends.
