Cities: Skylines, 0% Tax City...

- Cities: Skylines - the 0% Tax City - a challenge I have long avoided since it looked implausible. Thanks to "unconventional" modern fiscal strategies, now you can have a city that simply doesn't tax its population.

'Pays 200 bucks everyday to walk from one side of town to the other'
"Thank god there are no taxes in this free city!"
this is how people play free to play games with microtransactions
No different from real life where some people pay low taxes but then pay a heck of a lot for many other basic necessities :P
Even states/countries with no income tax "appear" this way. They get them out of you another way, they always do ;)
If I had to pay $200 every time I left my house I would be paying less tax then I am right now
@@SoManyZubats doubtful that’s 73000 a year in fees, unless your making over 200k a year

My favourite part of this was that the whole time trying to avoid taxing people, you've created a system that relies on one of the most hated tax form - tolls

Smart working
I was shooting heroin and reading “The Fountainhead” in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it. It was the chief.
“Bad news, detective. We got a situation.”
“What? Is the mayor trying to ban trans fats again?”
“Worse. Somebody just stole four hundred and forty-seven million dollars’ worth of bitcoins.”
The heroin needle practically fell out of my arm. “What kind of monster would do something like that? Bitcoins are the ultimate currency: virtual, anonymous, stateless. They represent true economic freedom, not subject to arbitrary manipulation by any government. Do we have any leads?”
“Not yet. But mark my words: we’re going to figure out who did this and we’re going to take them down … provided someone pays us a fair market rate to do so.”
“Easy, chief,” I said. “Any rate the market offers is, by definition, fair.”
He laughed. “That’s why you’re the best I got, Lisowski. Now you get out there and find those bitcoins.”
“Don’t worry,” I said. “I’m on it.”
I put a quarter in the siren. Ten minutes later, I was on the scene. It was a normal office building, strangled on all sides by public sidewalks. I hopped over them and went inside.
“Home Depot™ Presents the Police!®” I said, flashing my badge and my gun and a small picture of Ron Paul. “Nobody move unless you want to!” They didn’t.
“Now, which one of you punks is going to pay me to investigate this crime?” No one spoke up.
“Come on,” I said. “Don’t you all understand that the protection of private property is the foundation of all personal liberty?”
It didn’t seem like they did.
“Seriously, guys. Without a strong economic motivator, I’m just going to stand here and not solve this case. Cash is fine, but I prefer being paid in gold bullion or autographed Penn Jillette posters.”
Nothing. These people were stonewalling me. It almost seemed like they didn’t care that a fortune in computer money invented to buy drugs was missing.
I figured I could wait them out. I lit several cigarettes indoors. A pregnant lady coughed, and I told her that secondhand smoke is a myth. Just then, a man in glasses made a break for it.
“Subway™ Eat Fresh and Freeze, Scumbag!®” I yelled.
Too late. He was already out the front door. I went after him.
“Stop right there!” I yelled as I ran. He was faster than me because I always try to avoid stepping on public sidewalks. Our country needs a private-sidewalk voucher system, but, thanks to the incestuous interplay between our corrupt federal government and the public-sidewalk lobby, it will never happen.
I was losing him. “Listen, I’ll pay you to stop!” I yelled. “What would you consider an appropriate price point for stopping? I’ll offer you a thirteenth of an ounce of gold and a gently worn ‘Bob Barr ‘08’ extra-large long-sleeved men’s T-shirt!”
He turned. In his hand was a revolver that the Constitution said he had every right to own. He fired at me and missed. I pulled my own gun, put a quarter in it, and fired back. The bullet lodged in a U.S.P.S. mailbox less than a foot from his head. I shot the mailbox again, on purpose.
“All right, all right!” the man yelled, throwing down his weapon. “I give up, cop! I confess: I took the bitcoins.”
“Why’d you do it?” I asked, as I slapped a pair of Oikos™ Greek Yogurt Presents Handcuffs® on the guy.
“Because I was afraid.”
“Afraid?”
“Afraid of an economic future free from the pernicious meddling of central bankers,” he said. “I’m a central banker.”
I wanted to coldcock the guy. Years ago, a central banker killed my partner. Instead, I shook my head.
“Let this be a message to all your central-banker friends out on the street,” I said. “No matter how many bitcoins you steal, you’ll never take away the dream of an open society based on the principles of personal and economic freedom.”
He nodded, because he knew I was right. Then he swiped his credit card to pay me for arresting him.

Thats basically the libertarian's whole idea. They want to ONLY pay for whatever they use, so you would pay a monthly fee to use a road, a monthly fee to be able to have your house put out if it catches fire, a monthly fee for garbage collection. You know, definitely NOT taxes with extra steps and the ability for a private corporation to fuck you as hard as they want.

Disney World was a local government. They have the authority to tax, raise municipal bonds, and erect local laws. This right was given in the 1960s and taken away in 2022 because Republicans didn’t like Disney’s CEO condemning a bill targeting LGBT kids. As a side note, no one knows what’s going to happen to Disney’s 1B in municipal debts, or how maintenance in Disney World will occur.

Have you ever done a 99% tax challenge? I would love to see the other side of the extreme
I think ita impossibly unlike 0% tax. Even with very high happiness, max tax causes people to abandon. Stretch to get passed 14%. With income, there are other sources outside of tax.
In terms of tax rates, during 1973-74, India witnessed the highest marginal tax rate (including surcharge) of 97.75%. It was gradually brought down to 50% in 1991-92 and further slashed to 30% in the following years. Currently, it stands at 42.7%.
It happened in reality in India, thats how common people learned how to evade tax
In sweden we pay in total around 55-60% in taxes, when you take into account things like groceries, gas etc, and of course regular tax on your salary.

So what I learned:
To have a tax free economy we would need to live in shacks at dirt roads. The coorperations running the theme parks would pretty much rule the country as all the revenue comes from them.
Walking to work costs money. And at some point the trash and corpses would start to pile up everywhere ...
*Insert Just in Ohio meme*
Pretty much. Some people in the comments have stated in a Libertarian society private companies would build and maintain the roads but I've yet to see why they would do so as well, they're a private company and thus exist to make money. Meaning pretty much profit gouging tolls.
@@junova7503 There's a city in India that's basically completely run by corporations. They did actually build their own private infrastructure and services (streets, a subway system, a police force, firefighters) but only built those things where their customers (wealthy corporate types)were. Other parts of the city are absolute shitholes with unpaved roads. Also, since there isn't a sewage system in the entire city, buildings (even the luxury apartments in the wealthy neighborhoods) have septic tanks which are emptied by trucks who dump everything in the river. Here's a video about it czcams.com/video/uD0bR7JXI6k/video.html
@@KarlSnarks Lmao perfect. Reminds me of Disney World in Florida. It was granted authority to govern itself by Florida and have their own firefighters, police, etc yet only like 40% of the employees can afford dental care. Obviously not as bad as that city you mentioned but given how much income Disney World generates...
@@junova7503 "Profit gouging tolls"
How do you define what's profit gouging or not? In reality, the more competition there is, the lower the profits of the competitors because they must charge reasonable rates to remain attractive. Service providers in more attractive areas may be able to charge more as there is more demand, but they still must keep their rates reasonable or lose business.
Also Disney is a poor example as people want to work there not for the money but because they want the chance to be part of it. It's similar to volunteers in a military who are being sent to die but think they're part of some greater good.
Or do some reading on company towns of the 18/1900s.
Some functioned very successfully, like Hershey, PA.
I laughed so hard at the solution in the end 🤣
I usually do a similar thing in my serious cities. Parks make great separators between noisy areas like highways and businesses and residential, so often make many long thin parks. This often ends with the park being the shortest path. Beautiful and nice :)
This style showing the cities that went wrong is good. When you just do the best city of looks like there weren't any effort because we don't know how hard it is.
Can’t wait for my city to adopt this system so no more taxes! Already bought a season pass to the amusement park and moved right next door to our city landfill 😊
