You think we would just decide not to fix the roads anymore? Is that what your decision would be? Good for you.

Repulicans have already decided not to fix the roads. You see, it may well be that we fix the roads in front of our own homes but they won't fix the highways. This is the way people are - Buck says but does not explain defusion of responsibility. A guy broken down by the side of the road may well be helped if the traffic on that road is light, but have him break down on a packed highway and in all likelyhood he won't be helped - everyone figures that someone else will do it, and no one does it. But it isn't just roads, it is our entire infrastructure, our regulations and our safety. Who is going to pay for the CDC?

Roads that I use, I will make sure they are fixed if needed, we will not just decide to go without roads if we need them and flail about helplessly. There are many approaches for this scenario, I am sure you can come up with your own, but you don't. So like I said this conversation is pointless if you don't want to provide your own thoughts of a possible alternative then its just some kind of childish argument , we might as well start calling each other stupid and idiot. If I make some suggestions that it will just continue on like this if you are refusing to join in that discussion so....not going there unless you come with me.

There is even many far leftist solutions for this I would find acceptable althou counter to my exact wording but you don't provide any, some even include a kind of tax, lets say Land Value Tax Theory.

So what do you think will happen, We will flail about helpless and not fix the roads?

Yes, except that you "use" about every road in America.

So what do you think will happen if we had no taxes and/or income taxes how would this get done? ("It wouldn't" is a wrong answer)

We would have some fucked roads, bridges, street lights, etc etc.. or some corporation would take it over and charge you a monthly rate to drive on your.. ooops their road ( no matter how fucked up said road got).

I'd rather do that then have elitists stealing money out of my pocket and drive on a road that cost 10 times what it should.

You eat something, you buy something. People use the roads to get to manufacturing facilities that use the roads in order to get raw materials and use the roads in order to ship those finished products to stores that have employees use roads to tend to the stores - shall I go on? Saying that you use only the roads you actually travel on is like saying that you only use one cell tower when in fact you use all of them. We all use all of our infrastructure.

Ah, another brainiac appears to show off his debating skills.

I was really tired yesterday, looks like I worded my question wrong.

1) What do you think would happen if there were no income taxes?

I don't think we would flail about helplessly and society decent into some kind of hellish chaos or third world country and I also don't think that the government would go broke. Like many other loyal follower of the mafia many of you seem to believe that. So please explain to me exactly why you believe this or provide what you think would happen or could work.

Otherwise...."Your'e just victims of the in house drive by...they say jump you say 'How High?'..."
