if we stop paying taxes, will all the police get laid off?
if so, what will they do for work?
is there truly no tyranny in a state of confusion?

No, they will all become tax-collection agents. Not paying your taxes is not
really an option at this point.

Become a street gang without badges instead of a street gang with badges.

> is there truly no tyranny in a state of confusion?

The two are intrinsically incompatible, but there's probably a way to
approximate it.

Yes.

}if so, what will they do for work?

Enforcers for the IRS, paid on the bounty system.

}is there truly no tyranny in a state of confusion?

There is maximal tyranny in confusion because it confounds self-directed
action. The smart person will maximize the confusion and thus become
tyrant.

}not that i really care about the answer, naturally

Nor does the answer care about you.
