Taxes should be against the excessive holding of finite resources such as land, water, petroleum, minerals, etc - so it would be difficult for any one person to own more of these than they need for their own benefit. We would then need to organize to co-own those finite resources in a collective manner in small clusters for the purpose of sharing the costs of that production and to have real control of the outputs without paying tribute to others.
