The Danes Are Revolting: Tax Administration Set On Fire

Tyler Durden's picture




 

In Fredensborg, Denmark, ten official cars from the Tax Administration Office were set on fire and destroyed overnight in a protest. As ExstraBladet reports, police received notification Wednesday night at 3:09 a.m. that the Tax Administration offices on Kratvej were on fire. So far, there are no suspects. But, as Martin Armstrong notes, the police will undoubtedly hunt for someone retaliating against the Tax Man.

 

As Martin Armstrong further points out, this is not the first time the world has seen this...

On February 18, 2010, a man in a dispute with the IRS for seizing his home flew his plane in a suicide mission directly into the IRS building in Austin, Texas.

His battle against the Tax Man made him a hero to many.

As the economy turns down and governments become far more aggressive to grab money from everyone, we should see a sharp rise in these types of incidents.

This is part of the rising trend in civil unrest.

 

This is all insane since money is no longer tangible; taxes are also no longer necessary. We should seriously address the fact that money is not what it used to be.

 

We have moved forward in technology, science, medicine, and every field except economics. France is high on the list for a major tax revolution as nearly 50% of GDP is consumed by annual tax collections. That is totally insane. And they wonder why the rich flee and unemployment rises? This is the 21st century, not the 17th. Money has changed and taxes are no longer necessary, yet they create it anyway. That is like me giving you a $100 bonus and then charging you $50 to receive it.

What’s the point? They spend more than they collect anyway.

These socialists were protesting because taxes were too low, right?

Most Americans are socialists too pal, they just think they are not. Deluded.

A small French town did this last year. Looks like it's contagious...

"One of the most important indicators of social mood is social behavior."

I stopped reading right there.  Only a Sociology Professor could write smething so inane.

I can think of plenty of people in the US that would like to see their local courthouse look like that.  Along with many other bs gov't agencies.  Enough is enough.  Good for them.  Burn those motherfuckers down!

Oh, I'm sure it was just the Danes celebrating their new-found freedom from cash, and the efficiency this brings to the tax-collection system...Quick! Someone get over there and hand out cookies and promise solidarity!

I'd be lying if I said the photo didn't make me smile, a genuine smile.

Do it to the Federal Reserve here, if Americans want their liberty back.

Somebody here once said Europe would be in flames before America even "farted".

 

Europe is in flames now and I'm expecting gunpowder scented farts soon.

Serious question here, not looking for ridicule. In the article, he says that taxes are no longer necessary. What does he mean by this? How else can goverment fund itself, other than by collecting taxes? Does he mean money printing or what? Would love someone to explain what he means by this.

 

Thanks.

The government can finance itself by salling drugs and arms  to the public . Who do you think is the biggest wholesaler of drugs in the world ? The CIA ? Have a look at the production of opium poppys after the USA invasion of Afghanistan .... It went up to thosands of tons . 

So the government agencies get the drugs in the USA and make hundreds of billions and in a complete show of stupidity the police prosecutes the narcotics dependent people and the small time sellers . Al very ILLOGIC  !

quote from above " France is high on the list for a major tax revolution as nearly 50% of GDP is consumed by annual tax collections. That is totally insane.  "

More insane than France is Italy where the average company pays nearly 68 % in taxes . It means that busisess has to work more than 6 months a year just to pay the  taxes . In the last 7 years industry has lost 20 % of productivity .
