Socialism: On taxes
  • Vitaliy_KiselevVitaliy_Kiselev

    In a socialist society, the complete abolition of the tax system, this legacy of the old society, is a natural act. Under socialism, socialist state and cooperative economies constitute the economic basis of the state, and the unity and cooperation of the working people are the basis of social relations. In a socialist society, socio-economic relations are the foundation that makes it possible to systematically ease the dependence of the population on the tax burden and, finally, to completely eliminate it.

    Under socialism, the tax system in a certain period is necessary as an auxiliary source of funds to meet the needs of state and public consumption, as well as additional means to regulate differences in living standards among different segments of the population.

    In our country, the abolition of taxes proceeds from the advantages of our socialist system and fully meets the natural requirements of its development.

    DPRK, 1974

    Total elimination of tax system is very important stage in Socialism, stage that lot of bureaucrats and clerks are very afraid of, as such changes increase their responsibility and demands to work with real economy and fulfill people needs in situation where you can't say that "we have no money".

    North Korea. Seriously? You want to give north Korea as a successful example of socialism?

    And you seriously do not want to spend even small amount of time to get information that country is in the total energy and resources blockade for many years?

    Put same blockade to any similar size capitalism country it it will be the end. I do not mean here bad life - it will be total famine and death of almost all population.

    Even more fun is that US seriously tell that if they pull out from South Korea their government have quite little chance to stand. As now only extreme oppression and jail stop communist ideas from becoming widespread, and this only is possible due to US and CIA help.

    Thing that I want to show here is that taxes are same as patents - medieval technology that must be abandoned as soon as possible. Of course, it is impossible in capitalism.
