Care for people

"Individual war tax resistance has probably been around since the first taxes were levied for war. Mass war tax resistance may be almost as old. There are reports of collective tax refusal as far back as the second century, A.D., in Egypt. (The Politics o

When I say that Norway is intense, it is not because there are road-blocks and paramilitaries here, it is because Norway is the 7th biggest arms exporter in the world - it is the nature of the criminal activities that are operated from here that makes it very intense. To deal with it, people are becoming increasingly xenophobic, I can elaborate under “comments” if anyone should read this with curiosity.

For now I attach two pictures, one self-explanatory and the other one a screen dump I took today. Income, fortune, and tax contribution is made available on-line by ‘Dagbladet’, one of Norway’s biggest newspapers. Dagbladet has also digested numbers, showing how much each individual is contributing to: ‘soldiers in Afghanistan’, ‘4 lane highways’ and ‘hours in a F16-plane’. Not paying income tax – and trying to reduce all other forms for taxes to a minimum – is something that is very important for me to feel “OK” about living here.
