I'm not convinced tax evasion even hurts the government. Taxes gives currency value via scarcity, but currency also gains value through contracts made on that currency. Taxes is just a contract where everyone is automatically enrolled. As long as there are enough other contracts operating on the currency and the contracts are still enforced, the currency will retain value. The government also isn't at risk of going broke since it can literally print it's currency then increase interest rates to stop inflation.

Still hurts you of-course, but it's a meaningless sacrifice.

Yeah, I just about flipped my shit with that title.

Just the way we like it.
