'Free' tax means libre tax and, at the same time, optionally gratis tax (c.f.: Wikipedia: Gratis versus Libre, The Free Software Definition and The Open Source Definition).
Greatest Common Divisor
The Free Tax Project is defined as the Greatest Common Divisor among
- p2p initiations
- hackerspaces
- pirate parties
- The United Persons
- (who else?)
Necessary and Sufficient Conditions
Necessary and sufficient conditions for the Free Tax Project
- (Sustainable Creativity) that we should have an ethical basis for free tax in the form of a firm conception of sustainable creativity
- (Independent Money) that we must create e-money independent of states
- (Independent Tax) that we should have the opportunity to pay our tax on bits independent of states
- (Pacification) that we should have the opportunity to avoid double taxation of bits by states
- (Participation) that we should have the infrastructure to spend our taxes by means of our participation, and
- (Customary Law) that we must reveal our laws based on our customs of our communities on the internet.
Sustainable Creativity
Independent Money
Independent Tax
- default rate > 0
- option out (i.e., e-cash)
The 0% tax rate does not mean gratis transaction: the costs of transaction and tax rates are not the same concepts.
Pacification
Participation
- default: no double taxation
- option out (i.e., pay taxes on bits to states as well)
Customary Law
Customary law does not mean that we should avoid prescriptive laws or constitutions: it just means that we should review and appreciate the experiences we acquired through our cooperation of different kinds on the internet.
