I know that anarcho-capitalism isn’t equivalent to zero taxes, but consider, prior to 1776, Americans were the least taxed people in the world, but per capita, we were the richest people in the world. We were taxed at the rate of one schilling per year per person, and the typical unskilled laborer made 5 schillings a day.
When the British invaded America in the late 1700's, the Generals as well as the enlisted army men were amazed at the affluence of the Americans. Americans were flat out wealthy by British standards. For 200 years, America had prospered under a yoke of hardly any tax. We could have easily paid off our debt to the British for the French and Indian war, but the British were bully’s - standing outside our churches and shouting profanities, not recognizing the efforts of our officers in the French and Indian War, and mostly by trying to force our merchants to buy and sell products only to England.
