Linux Mint Cinnamon on Firefox. Repeatedly I upload my avatar image (.jpg 100x) but it never replaces the inital thingy.

yes, Nma; I have felt scattered for decades!!! -- j

Yes there may be other taxes but none of them is as onerous as an Income Tax, especially a progressive Income Tax. Income Tax is a penalty imposed on productivity. A progressive Income Tax is a penalty on productivity that penalizes the more productive more stiffly.

Even if there's no getting away from taxes entirely, paying a minimal amount to a government that doesn't engage in mass illegal surveillance, aggressive wars for no reason, massive imprisonment of innocent people for victimless crimes, torture, etc. etc. that the USSA does, is way better, and doesn't really contribute to the problem.

Right now the only link to it is in the "Top Point Earners" block section in the upper-right. We'll get a primary navigation link in their shortly,

‘tis interesting that even in the Gulch, most folks seem to think that Income Tax is the only tax & yes, there are many places on the planet where the state does not impose an Income Tax … even when the question was rather clearly stated: “Have you found a habitable place on this planet where you can pay zero taxes of any kind to some State without fairly high risk of fines, imprisonment or execution?”.

In 40+ years of research, correspondence, observation, we’ve yet to find such a place & if such exists, I’d suspect that the lives of the folks there are still controlled by some version of the State thru regulations, etc. &, unless there are no “legal tender laws”, the folks’ wealth is likely confiscated thru the cruel tax called monetary inflation.

I like it, I can see that I am not alone up here in the Northwest. Is there a link in "Categories" above to get to the "Members Directory"?

Yes, that's what I meant.

Yes there are many places like that. Check out: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internatio...

At the moment, one of the most promising is Panama, which has a very easy residence visa for nationals of over 40 countries, and doesn't tax the worldwide income of residents.

What exactly is happening when you attempt to update? What browser and operating system are you using?

A good thing to do.

But profile image update doesn't work, darnit

And still no direct answer.... I am curious myself. I'd like to live where that's an option, other than Saudi Arabia. :-)

Thank You Scott. I have found someone in my own little town here..who knew

I tested the search engine by specifying a 5 mile radius, and got a few that seemed to fit that criterion, but one was in Minnesota. Something is wrong with the search formula to produce that result.

Those of us still here may not be on the sinking ship. Remember -- Galt's Gulch was actually within the borders of the country. Overseas was all "people's republics" so it was not worth leaving the country. That's sort of the case today.

Not for long. Working on it.

It was fun, Scott. He saw the sticker and needed no convincing. We had a 5 minute conversation.

ah. now you phrased the question so I better understand your point :)

Nice. Well done.

I talked one student who saw my WIJG bumper sticker into joining Galts Gulch Online just yesterday.

RE: " stop paying taxes to Leviathan. Anyone who hasn't done that is a slave, and in fact the actual cause of the problem"

Have you found a habitable place on this planet where you can pay zero taxes of any kind to some State without fairly high risk of fines, imprisonment or execution?

RE: "How about making it non-US-only? "

Perhaps an option to search for only non-US members?

Thank you Scott!

Thanks Ed. We'll add 250 as an option.

Thanks Thoritsu.

RE: "There needs to be other search criteria."
What other criteria specifically?

RE: "I can "imagine" meeting a Gulch member somewhere beyond where I can ride a bicycle to. "
You can type any zip you like in the zip code field.

RE: "a message option"
A "Start a local discussion" button appears after you execute a search. Are you not seeing it?

That's not the point. My point is that the member directory is limited to US ZIP code based searches.
