Where you going with this?

Afaik, Byzantine (or reverse) and other private tax collection setups aren't illegal.



“Not illegal” != “very very good for everybody”


Sure. My point is strictly say what you want to mean.

If you believe this is bad for society then say "I can't see how allowing others to profit from your tax refund is good" and not "How is this not reverse Byzantine tax farming?".


Sure man - you do your thing, I’ll do mine. I prefer implicit meaning to explicit.
