Tax detoxification: dextaxation

If you can detox from drugs, you can detox from paying taxes

According to the (reviled) Heidegger, logic was in thought before it was in language. For just as logical thought was reified in spoken and written language, so it has happened that by force of writing and talking about what They tell you it is said They tell —like a big Hitlerian lie— logical linguistic thought has been reified in behaviour. This, and no other, is the way and manner in which

you —humans— have ended up towelling yourselves without thinking that you dry yourselves with the towel, as well as paying taxes without thinking that you pay taxes.

If you were asleep you would be more aware of reality.

And the best prescription for sleepers was revealed by Duke Leto to his son Paul before leaving for Arrakis to fall into the foretold trap of the grainy Harkonnens and the spotless and refined and sophisticated Emperor Shaddam IV: "I will miss the sea... but a person needs new experiences... they jar something deep down, which allows him to grow. Without change, something sleeps within us... and seldom awakens... The sleeper must awaken".

So:

Let's wake up the sleeper inside us and let's make possible other ways of being wrong!, let's go back to the nological thinking before the current logical thinking, let's think differently and... we will see...!

If waking up is the first and most difficult step to stop doing things without thinking and to start thinking about the things we do, the next and perhaps more difficult step is to put it into practice: thinking.

Thinking when one is not in the habit of thinking, but in the habit of doing, is as painful as detoxing from an addiction, whether it is to coke, alcohol, sex, hamburgers, chocolate or video games —which doesn't matter—. When the body displaces the mind, when soma takes over, there is only a terrible struggle in which the winner takes it all. And there are only semantic differences between the just exposed and the process of stop paying taxes when taxes have always been paid.

It is the process of tax detoxification migrating to the decentralised world: dextaxation.
