>Calling taxes "Being robbed by your government" is such a cliché

Tell me, where are you from? Do you have free access to other currencies where you live? Because I don't, and where I live we have 50% inflation (even 100% for groceries). It's not taxes when we don't get anything in return and we can't even save in the currency we are paid.

I'd like to see how you live here for a year.

If you manage to get the full value of your money, other people will lose the full value of theirs. The value that supposedly backs your local currency simply does not exist. Is it not fairer that everyone gets 50%?

Why?

>The value that supposedly backs your local currency simply does not exist

Tell me something I don't know...

>Is it not fairer that everyone gets 50%?

What? Why? Why should anyone working for abroad let the government decide how much money they get from their hours spent working?

Sorry, I didn't understand the last part. Did you mean "People who have jobs with foreign companies should not have to pay taxes"?

No, I didn't. Have a nice weekend.

To be clear nobody is supposed to save in the currency they are paid, ever, anywhere on earth. I’m not saying that makes 50% inflation ok just that this not the argument. Not least because bitcoin has once again seen 50% inflation in the last 60 days.

Again though, why not USDC?

One of the parent comments above said "I’ve often wished there were a way to organize against crypto", I believe USDC is another crypto isn't it?

But yes, is another way many freelancers are paid here, it's not just bitcoin and ETH, many use stablecoins.

I only find kinda selfish the comfortable position to be against ALL cryptocurrencies (which don't do such a damage to the climate like bitcoin.) while living in the first world, even those

You do have access to other currencies via a Wise multi-currency account. They're free, and available in Argentina.

> Bluecollar people have happily accepted cash to avoid taxes since forever.

All the more reason why cryptocurrencies might be useful to blue collar people.

Well no, someone has to pay for social services.
