Sure, but that ultimately doesn't help to solve the issue if you end up funding another government.
It does help actually, because governments compete for tax cattle. People moving in response to authoritarian policies makes it harder to implement them.
Political migration and the high degree of fragmentation is one of the leading hypotheses about why Europe became so prosperous. Rulers simply couldn't exert power to the same extent as those in other parts of the world.
So its preferable to stay in a corrupt and inept local/state government and continue to pay them taxes and just blindly hope that your actions somehow eventually make them get their act together? This is supposed to be preferable to leaving and paying taxes to a government that is well run and treats you well? I'm not trying to criticize. I just genuinely cannot wrap my mind around your argument. Could you clarify?
My post is asking for ways of limiting governments, not avoiding those that mistreat you.
Well, sly subversion goes without saying, no?
Vote with your feet. Go where you're treated best.
