All About Taxes

Conservative View of taxation: A prehensile grab from an authoritarian patriarchal government to steal from my short-term stockpile of self-aggrandizing cash. Progressive View of taxation: A GoldenRule government-issued invitation to cooperatively invest in our shared short-term and long-term health and safety future. Moses challenged Conserving-Progressive FreedomPeople to never forget we have escaped the bonds of patriarchal plutocratic Egyptian grabbing from our bourgeois and formerly enslaved Chosen Egos. We are now both Governor and Governed, cooperatively incorporated, economically progressing our ego-conservationing of health and safety ecopolitical outcomes. Conservative View of health and safety: Good for all, but, when push comes to economic shove, best for me to hoard against an Egyptian militaristic day. Progressive View of health and safety: Of course we are always WinWin-only cooperative geopolitical players of and for Earth's regenerativity. So, we are happy to pay our taxes, but we would be even happier if these would co-invest in Earth's climate health and safety, EarthTribe's regenerative health and safety, as Ego's bicameral co-empathic trust in our GoldenRule cooperative Exodus into our Beloved Promise Land of eco-integrity.
