Then some guy walks up to each of you and demands you pay him $5 because this is his spot that you used to make the transaction. If you don't pay him, he kicks your ass and steals your stuff. Then he puts you in a cell. |
More like trading $20 for fixing your car.
While the guy collecting the $5 of each of you builds the roads you used to get the car to the guy that fixes it for you.
Ofcourse you're free to live off-grid, catch your own food and barter with your neighbours. Income 0, taxes done.
