Society doesn't set the rules, nature does. Society can set rules for the short term such as robbing people by taxation via democracy which they tell themselves is a good thing, just as slave owners told themselves it's a good thing.

But telling yourself something is a good thing doesn't make it true even if the democratic vote is 90% in favour of keeping the other 10% as slaves.

Wrong taxes are those that make the society weaker and less competitive with others that will supersede the dud ones. Their are no inherently wrong taxes. Society sets the rules.

Natural laws define what's a good idea, not votes.

Tax is mostly just envy dressed up with democracy as a fig leaf to cover naked greed and theft.

Meanwhile Apple is worth $1 trillion. World record. Google Amazon Microsoft are not far off.

The 20th century industrial revolution oil, car, machinery, moving parts behemoths have faded to has-been status. Cyberspace is the big deal now.

The industrial revolution replaced muscle while the cyberspace revolution is replacing brains. Brains are infinitely more valuable than muscle.

Shirtless muscular hordes are just so many chimps. They can't create much value. One man with a keyboard can supersede huge tribes of mindless monkeys. Mindless monkeys voting by the million doesn't make them more intelligent even if 95% of them vote the same way.

Even if they hide it overseas it will keep the elite from buying Hollywood, the press and the government. The enemy is the billionaires, not because they are rich but how they use their money to usurp Democracy.

Or doing all the solid pro growth, pro family, pro rugged individualism free from government, growth from the middle out not top down and fiscal responsible we were doing when Eisenhower was the president that we stopped doing over the past 55 years.. Both parties are to blame starting with LBJ. Coastal elites, media and hollywood types. Silly Valley or these spoiled football and basketball players so far removed from what you and I do and see daily serving the little guy. Is pathetic Trump gave these people tax cuts should have focused on small business that actually build and create something tangible in the local community.. #ILikeIke
