The IRS is not going to be able to keep tabs under block chain technology. Income tax is disgusting and unconstitutional, I don’t give a fuck with the Supreme Court says. Your money is your money. I’m not against paying taxes but I am against government keeping tabs on every damn thing we do. It’s none of their fucking business what we do with our money unless it’s illegal. What you buy with your money is a different story. They are not going to be able to control taxes in less they adopt a national sales tax model instead of income taxes.

Doesn't the 16th amendment allow for income tax?

"The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."

The Empire will strike back one way or another. Tyrants aren't particularly fond of things that circumvent their control grids.

Private corporations can identify you based on your metadata and browsing habits, but somehow you think the IRS won't be able to identify the public address that belongs to you on a public fucking blockchain ledger?
