IRS plans to make its free tax filing program permanent

The Internal Revenue Service said Thursday that it will continue and expand its free tax filing program in 2025.

Taxation is theft. Use Monero.
Libertarianism is stupidity. Use brain.
Oh, I’m most definitely am. I’m using my brain and my knowledge to help teach others to fight the system and defund the IRS and defund the government and burn it all to the ground.
Why though? I like public infrastructure. I don’t want toll roads everywhere I go.
Let the states handle it. If the states don’t handle it well and have bad infrastructure, then you are free to leave. Before a state that has better infrastructure. I’d like to see a world where states compete to get new people to move there and have incentive programs for people who wish to leave other states.

you are free to leave

This isn’t true in the slightest. I’d love to leave Texas right now, but I in no way can afford to do so.

I would support community fundraisers to help people get out of situations that are bad for them. So for example, LGBTQ people who live in LGBTQ friendly places could raise money to support others who are currently living in Texas and need to move away.
So the libertarian solution to eliminate taxes is essentially GoFundMe, where the burden of support for those in need falls only on those who possess both empathy and the financial means to engage in philanthropy?
Everybody has something of value they can contribute to society. So people need to find what that is for them and do that for somebody else. If you’re good at washing dishes, then go wash dishes. If you’re good at painting houses, then go paint houses. The libertarian mindset, at least from what I can gather, is a hand up, not a hand out.
But what if nobody is paying enough to wash dishes or paint houses? Your logic would dictate that they should just find someone else willing to pay them enough, but if literally nobody is paying enough then there are no options.
Without 52%+ taxes people would have enough to live on and save. (15% from your pay, 15% from your salary that your employer takes automatically, 10% sales tax, 12% inflation). I didnt count all the other taxes such as property ad velorem, gas, etc.)

Inflation isn’t a tax. It wouldn’t go away even if you eliminated all taxes.

I don’t know what your income tax rates is but 30% is pretty high, you must make good money!

Inflation won’t go away unless you switch to a currency that doesn’t inflate. And yes, inflation is a tax. It’s just a tax you don’t know you’re paying because it’s hidden from you. Instead of having less dollars in your balance, your dollar just buys less, which is the same thing.
