How to cut taxes whilst retaining gov't services etc: Gov't owned profitable enterprises. Maybe not controlling "the means of production" of anything beyond auto license plates. I've suggested Sin Cities where customers voluntarily hand over lotsa money for otherwise illicit fun. Establish gov't monopolies on brothels, designer drugs, pleasure implants, pro sports arenas, donkey shows, ethical suicide, etc.
For balance, anyone entering a Sin City will see their health insurance premiums double. Some venues will mandate total loss of insurance coverage. This will filter the genepool, eh?
Taxes can be cut if we stop paying DoD for massive military programs that don't work and generals who can't win wars. Cut off an NSA that can't keep secrets. Kill huge agribiz price supports that drive up consumer costs. Quit filling private and public prisons with low-level perps of victimless crimes. Et fucking cetera.
