There's only a few nations I know of,mostly European,who actually do the logical thing of just sending the tax to you as a bill.

They already know how much you make,why force the worker to calculate the tax with a confusing system that can land them in jail for a mistake?

On top of that,though,the nations that actually send the bill also give a full and complete breakdown of which percentages of your tax are being sent to which service,so you will always know if the nation is making changes with your taxes.

Gotta love this inbalanced world,eh?
That works perfectly fine. If you file Married Joint and not Married Separate. And don't have any deducible charitable donations. And don't have investments with special circumstances (including but not limited to partnerships and other K-1 reported items such as pipeline royalties). And don't have profits from a cash business or illegal income (which MUST or they can Al Capone your ass). And don't have losses due to certain disasters that get you favorable tax treatment. And don't have scholarship income in excess of eligible expenses. And don't have income exempt from Federal taxes but not State taxes, or vice versa. And the list goes on.

Anyone operating a Hobby Business (such as Medusa) will NEVER have their taxes figured by the government and a bill mailed.

The government knows if you're registered as married,which also means they also know other aspects,so that's out.

Deducitble charitable donations are a scam used by the rich to avoid taxes by donating to each other,such as the fine art world,and providing an incentive to donate by lowering tax amount voids the whole point of being charitable in the first place whilst still putting the tax effort on the person,something that would next on the list to get rid of,how much excess income one is willing to donate should be there own effort to donate it,and should be irrelevant to tax.

Investments are tax reductables as well?,considering it's a form of income,simply add the amount to the amount they already receive as per whatever job they hold,the tax that,why make it complicated?

A cash business is still a registered source of income,no?,otherwise it wouldn't be a business,it would either be private cash transactions under X amount or an illegal money scheme,which taxes themselves would irrelevant in both those latter cases,the tax is simply based off of the former.

"Certain disasters" would be large enough to be in your database,no?,with records that proove the disaster involved you?,which would then mean the government knows you're in a disaster situation.

Scholarship income would automatically mean you're not in an employed situation,with records to show that,therefore you shouldn't be taxed,no?,and it would be the authorities in charge of your scholarship system that monitor its' usage and make further records to determine how eligible they are,cancelling it and/or enforcing laws to prevent abuse.

Gotta love federal government systems that make a single nation actually 50 nations,with the previously mentioned tax breakdown,a single bill tax would tell you how much is going where,which includes the state side entities and the federal side entities,with whatever the exemption being shown on said bill.

Depending on how much she makes,she's either too poor to be taxed or she does make enough,with the latter being registered and her being charged accordingly by the government since they know how much she made from her work.

The government should also know if you own a motor vehicle for road tax,know if you own a home/property for housing/property tax,and should also clearly know if you're one of their employees so they can actually pay you with the tax they got.

Is there more nuance you haven't mentioned about these yet?,because it doesn't seem like the government is unable to handle these aspects.

Taxes should not be complicated to the point that the government itself is unable to fill it out for you,and even Goddamn Commiefornia has somehow made a system that is somewhat close to what those European nations have.

There are valid reasons (though not particularly common) that two married people file separate tax returns.

Deducitble charitable donations are a scam used by the rich to avoid taxes by donating to each other,such as the fine art world,and providing an incentive to donate by lowering tax amount voids the whole point of being charitable in the first place whilst still putting the tax effort on the person,something that would next on the list to get rid of,how much excess income one is willing to donate should be there own effort to donate it,and should be irrelevant to tax.
You encourage people for doing things that you want more of. If you don't want private charity and would instead have the government step in and decide for itself who to be charitable to and get the funds to do that by taxes everyone (whether they individually agree with what is being supported or not, aka "forced charity") then it sounds like a fantastic plan.

Investments are tax reductables as well?,considering it's a form of income,simply add the amount to the amount they already receive as per whatever job they hold,the tax that,why make it complicated?
Most publicly-traded investments (thinks stocks and commodities) could be tracked with modern technology. Not all can. (I can remember the Bad Old Days when I had to manually list each stock transaction on the tax form and classify its holding period instead of just importing it from Schwab or E-Trade like you can now.) When you talk about individuals transacting between themselves (physical commodities like gold or silver and other things like collectables immediately come to mind) then no one besides the parties would know about it but the losses and gains are still legally reportable. Do you propose that all transactions between individuals must be registered with the government or go through an approved middle man?

Did you know that if you sell personal property at a gain then that's taxable income? That doesn't happen often but during Covid some people actually made a profit on their used cars.


A cash business is still a registered source of income,no?,otherwise it wouldn't be a business,it would either be private cash transactions under X amount or an illegal money scheme,which taxes themselves would irrelevant in both those latter cases,the tax is simply based off of the former.
I don't know what a "registered source of income" is. The government doesn't give you a job or approve your job. If you are are talking about payroll taxes paid by your employer on your behalf then yes they do know that. That is, assuming your employer is not committing fraud by misreporting. Obviously if you're a cash business sole proprietor then there isn't any of that.

At the end of the day how many hotdogs did the street vendor sell (from his pushcart or food truck, take your pick), how much cash did he take in, and how many were unsold and had to be discarded? How does the government know that? When did he buy the hotdogs and how much did he pay for each lot? How does the government know that? How much gas did he use solely for restocking his supplies (a valid business expense)? How does the government know that?

Let's take the case of a farmer. We'll ignore the land itself and the subsidies to make it easier. Farming is not a business you can run on a Cash Accounting basis. You're pretty much guaranteed it's a Accrual Accounting. The farmer will either be saving records to turn into his (tax deductible) accountant or for feeding into his (tax deductible) accounting and tax software running on his (tax deductible) computer.

How much seed did he buy and what did it cost? How much did he plant? Did he plant all of it? Did he plant some that was leftover but still good from last season? How much fertilizer did he buy vs use and what did it cost? How much pesticide did he buy vs use and what did it cost? How much fuel, water, and electricity did he use in the farming activities? How much was the maintenance on his equipment?

And the farmer's equipment... You don't buy an $80,000 to $200,000 tractor or a $100,000 to $800,000 combine harvester and have that as a business expense in the year of purchase. That has to be depreciated over time base on a number of allowable depreciation methods. The government can't track that, unless you want them to have a database containing every single piece of depreciable farm equipment every single farmer owns.


"Certain disasters" would be large enough to be in your database,no?,with records that proove the disaster involved you?,which would then mean the government knows you're in a disaster situation.
You sure want the government to know EVERYTHING, don't you? That doesn't fly over here.

Scholarship income would automatically mean you're not in an employed situation,with records to show that,therefore you shouldn't be taxed,no?
No. Students are of course taxed if they earn income. Why should they get special treatment? There are some tax credits that students are eligible for to cover some of the cost of education.

,and it would be the authorities in charge of your scholarship system that monitor its' usage and make further records to determine how eligible they are,cancelling it and/or enforcing laws to prevent abuse.
No, and how would that even work? Scholarships can in some cases exceed the deductible portion of the cost of education and there's no "abuse" going on. There are government loans and grants but scholarships but most if not all scholarships do not. The university is one source of scholarships and they can range from piddling to paying almost everything. Other sources of scholarships can be organizations such as unions (I got a $1000/year scholarship, which was a fair amount compared to the cost of education in the early 1980s, from my father's labor union), ethnic organizations (think Hispanic or black oriented for example), or a myriad of other private organizations.

If a person lives frugally off campus with roommates and has a really good scholarship from the university then how can the university know what his room and board costs are? And so what if it turns out that after all of that he spent $1000 less in a year for his scholarship-allowed education costs than he received for in scholarship funds? It's not illegal or abusive. It's just taxable income.

Yes, you ABSOLUTLY have to love Federalism. Why in the HELL should someone living in sparsely-populated Kansas, or Idaho, or Montana have the same laws that highly-populated states like New Jersey, California and New York have? A single set of laws may work in a small country but the US is over 3.1 million square miles (8 million square km) NOT including Alaska or Hawaii with a population of over 340,000,000. Most western European countries are state-sized in the US (and we'll even leave out Alaska where there is county-equivalent district that is larger than the entire UK) so what works there in state-sized countries wouldn't work here in this massive geologically- and demographically-diverse country.

Depending on how much she makes,she's either too poor to be taxed or she does make enough,with the latter being registered and her being charged accordingly by the government since they know how much she made from her work.
You like using the word "registered" a lot. The government doesn't own me.

The government should also know if you own a motor vehicle for road tax,know if you own a home/property for housing/property tax,and should also clearly know if you're one of their employees so they can actually pay you with the tax they got.
The individual state governments do know all of that. Road taxes are paid to the state in various ways, primarily via state and federal fuel taxes (and why don't EV owners have to pay a replacement tax?), tolls, and special taxes on commercial trucking. In some states (AZ for example) your annual vehicle registration includes a property tax and in other states (NM for example) you pay that as, I think, part of your state income tax filing. (I could be wrong on that one as I've never lived in such a state.)

Real Property taxes are assessed (in AZ at least) at the county level but may be dispersed to other levels of government as well. As I mentioned before in AZ vehicle property taxes are paid as part of your annual vehicle registration. Business Property, Real or otherwise, is taxed by the county but I don't know how. Personal property (other than vehicles) is not taxed in Arizona.

Due to Proposition 312 in Arizona for the next 10 years property owners can apply for a reimbursement (limited to property tax paid) for reasonable expenses incurred to mitigate the city, town, or county not doing its job by:

"Adopting and following a policy, pattern, or practice that does not enforce existing laws prohibiting illegal camping, obstructing a public thoroughfare, loitering, panhandling, urinating or defecating in public, consuming alcoholic beverages in public, or possessing or using illegal substances;"



Is there more nuance you haven't mentioned about these yet?,because it doesn't seem like the government is unable to handle these aspects.

Taxes should not be complicated to the point that the government itself is unable to fill it out for you,and even Goddamn Commiefornia has somehow made a system that is somewhat close to what those European nations have.
(At first I assumed you were European but it seems you live here due to your well-earned epithet about California.)

If you're happy with EVERY SINGLE TRANSACTION, business or private, a person or business makes going into a (hackable) government-ran database then what you are proposing could possibly be done for common employees but the self-employed in a small cash-transaction business would be shit out of luck. You could even pass the info down to the State, County, and City (for those NYC Income Taxes) levels. I'm sure that information would NEVER be misused by anyone because a law would be passed and no one violates laws. Of course you'd have to eliminate cash so that there could be no untracked transactions and ban silver, gold, and platinum to try to eliminate an easy barter system bypass.
