All those things exist now.

I've considered the "citizen membership" idea of taxation. If you want protection and rights, you have to pay. However, I believe a fair tax would be much simpler and more efficient. Plus, we need all that extra cash to balance the budget. That is, of course, if we can get our fuckin congressmen to quit throwing money at their corporate pimps.
