Hm, I'm having a hard time on some of the examples you've listed above;
The first point goes far beyond simple stealing, and people who steal do so not only because they can't get it the fair way, it's also because they get a kick or something akin to that out of it, or so I think at least.
The second point taps into the state and it's welfare-programs, and I don't see how or why these would change or stop existing because we have a capped monetary medium, for the ones depending or profiting from these programs won't be happy to hear that these are being put to rest.
The third point needs some expanding.
The fourth point makes sense, but only when said government is dependent on the taxpayers to actually pay those taxes out of free will, worded otherwise; People pay the government sum "X" for services they value, such as; a working police force, maintenance of existing infrastructure and the expansion of it et cetera.
The fifth point needs some expanding as well.
The sixt point isn't different in such a setting as is today, the opposite may come true; If a currency increases in value over time, people may be more * hesitant* to give anything of said currency away.
The seven point I agree on, it's either do or die.
I'd like to hear your take on this.
