Why pay tax?

Printing currency dilutes the value of the currency. It acts as an invisible tax taking value from savings and reducing the value of debts. Bankers like it as it encourages extra borrowing.
We could be heading for hyperinflation where trust in the currency is undermined and there is a scramble to convert cash into goods. Then we get a reset.

To make sure that everyone continues to work. Debt is the main driver of that, tax just makes it harder to get out of debt.
If everyone stopped working the elite would no longer be elite.
