No taxation = the State cannot pay for things like huge air-planes to protect you, or hospitals, or make streets for you, or whatever of the sort.
Although Collected Writings by Gottfried Feder doesn't state anything on Business taxes which I assume is a given.
According to Feder the ultimate society when fixed is direct, indirect tax free. Beyond Liberterian policy of income taxless due to being state sponsored robbery.
If Feder implies Business taxes plus the business the Government owns.
For example in his reading. In 1911 or 1914 German military was ~138 million and Navy around ~38 million no idea on Airforce that wasn't mentioned.
But if the military is a combined total of ~176 million.
Feder postulated that if taxes direct and indirect represent less than 20% or even less than 17% according to Prussia's 1911 financial gains. And citizens pay of lower classes some 85% while upper pay the rest and rich people pay even less.
Then what is the point of paying taxes both direct and indirect. Why not have items in face value and pass the savings unto the consumers and have the money in the hands of people so that these robbery of taxes is in the hands of citizens.
As Feder states German State pays 15-16 billion dollars to Big loan capital. As Feder states the 4 biggest scourges are Currency Speculation, Market Speculation, International Speculation, and Big loan capital.
If German Industry amounts to 247-345 billion dollars and it generates 15-16 maybe 17 billion to big loan capital. And on top of that taxes don't cover big loan capital so more money is made from increased taxes and or printed or both printed and taxes.
Then what is the point of a nation and what is the point of paying income, direct, and indirect taxes if it only amounts to about a total of 14-17% financial gains from the other billions made in industry.
Sheer fact is Feder could have easily said if we entered WW1 and put down a billion for the military it would help tremendously. 200 million for the Army and Navy a bit more maybe give 100-200 million more and the remaining 500-600-700 million more is for military R&D and munitions and the general Military Industrial Complex.
If you eliminate all taxes sure that is bad nothing for the Government. But if you eliminate Speculation and move to a Private Market Securities Exchange i.e. private investors for loaning and making money from investors on top of Zero-Interest Loans like Ghadaffi's Libya.
You eliminate Income, Direct, and Indirect Taxes funnel the money into the citizens. And you fix the tax code for industry for nationalization and industrialization and fair taxation of the business from the face value they cover items with.
In other words UNLESS there is a War and or National Emergency or in Germany's case reconstructing the economy. Income, Direct, and Indirect taxes are not done on citizens as the money is to enrich the citizens. Even if Feder was a bit weary of people hoarding money rather preferring people enrich themselves with items.
Taxes on business yeah if they fixed it so business are not destroyed especially considering in Germany according to HistoryReview chain stores are banned small and medium business are upward mobility for citizens.
I can see business paying taxes. But in the end as Feder states Sovereign Finances control the Central Bank. Recreate the banking industry from the ground up. Create a Construction Bank Note for the Construction Banks a Ceben as I call it. A privatized Sovereign financial capable of printing bank not nationalized like the Central bank but for the construction of housing and payments etc.etc.
I'm not against taxes for businesses but after reading Feders book taking Liberterian ideas further not just income but the very items we buy.
It reminds me of Stormblood's message. If the Government can make money from it's businesses and taxes you can controlled expand the money supply over a period of time without upsetting the inflation or prices.
It reminds me of what you said on resetting the economy if it goes bad. Not that it should happen under proper control.
But now with banks issue having a contagion strategy and instead of resetting the entire system have a stand-alone system. Isolate a market and reset it without hitting the entire thing and prop it back up till it is operating.
Also it seems like Feder is into nationalization of industries taking his ideas further into CRO or Chief Restructuring Officer.
I strongly recommend you read Collected writings it posses Manifesto on Abolition of Interest-Debt Thralldom. But the stand alone should be read. Collected is better as it contains snippets on the bottom explaining historical principles.
Alas in the end National Socialism like one member said is Organic like the Constitution. It is changeable and can evolve. So what applied back then 80-100 years ago isn't what is occurring now.
Still we can learn from our past like Orwell and Kane from Command and Conquer.
He who controls the past, commands the future. He who controls the future commands the present.
