Its still being taxed. The money would just be going to a corporation driven by a desire for endless profit growth instead of a nonprofit organization. Or heath care.

And most historians agree that ancient egypt was built by free workers rather than slaves so if the pyramids builders weren't slaves it's obvious that the palace maidens weren't slaves either. And again there would be no way that a man who considered himself a god would let slaves prepare his food, he had reliable servants whom he trusted.

Why are you assuming they won't? It would take hundreds of thousands of bombs to literally destroy all the US. Infrastructure and food supply would be badly damaged by blasts and radiation but for the most part even in the worst case scenarios we're still here and that means if America just goes away it's because everybody decided to stop being American.
Get rid of the IRS! And the income tax!
The IRS will never get their hands on my bottle caps!
US: gets nuked to hell
IRS: fallout tax
Survivor tax
I ain't paying at that point.
[economy literally destroyed]
IRS: "Hey, you! Hand over that caaash!"
Imagine a bunch of canibal raiders shows up and be like: IRS you owe us tax money😅
Raiders: looks like meat back on the menu boys!
No, the cannibal raiders are those you join if you refuse to pay taxes and join the Enclave.
@@johnrichardson7310 They're IRS Agents, there's barely any meat on the bone, it's all tofu.
Bold of the IRS thinking they'd be allowed to exist in an Apocalypse.
They really think that we'd care what the IRS says in an apocalyptic scenario? Oh that is ADORABLE
Wouldn't we try to rebuild tho?
Like practically speaking, I doubt the whole thing falls in one night.
@@alclay8689 yeah, but with a reduction of middle men
@@alclay8689 lets be real, the taxman wouldn't survive a week. people already want him dead
@@TonedVirus3So if we're attacked with nuclear weapons your priority is taking out other Americans? Apocalyptic war is literally the most justifiable taxes could ever be.
How to say " I'm a brain dead retard without saying I'm a brain dead retard"
They made plans to get our money after the end of the world but I get sick and lose everything. Sounds about right.
The IRS acting like they wouldn’t be the first target in a nuclear war
The pharaoh charged his slaves 20%
What exactly does that make us?
The pharaoh had no slaves they were workers, he wouldn't entrust slaves to handle his food or even be by his side
@@sa_med Incorrect.
@@sa_medHe did have slaves
@@JohnSmith-gi2oy no he didn't, according to historium and springer. Pharaohs in ancient Egypt did utilize slaves. However, many laborers, including those who built the pyramids, were likely free workers rather than slaves. The terminology surrounding slavery in ancient Egypt is complex, and distinctions between different types of servitude can be ambiguous. And most historians agree that ancient egypt was built by free workers rather than slaves so if the pyramids builders weren't slaves it's obvious that the palace maidens weren't slaves either. And again there would be no way that a man who considered himself a god would let slaves prepare his food, he had reliable servants whom he trusted.
@@sa_med I didnt say that the pyramids were built by slaves, i said there were slaves.
'The world is about to end...'
IRS: 'Even that won't stop me.'
Seems like such a slimy thing to do, enforcing tax collection even after a disaster that crumbles civilization itself
Every government agency has a Continuity of Government plan.
The Post Office has one on how to handle change of address after a nuclear war.
I mean, they have to deliver the Platinum Chip somehow.
@@UserRedZero Mr House gonna get a "we couldnt find your adress" mail
We need another NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION ✊✊✊
You HAVE representation. That is your government, you get to vote for them.
@@uncletiggermclaren7592 ah yes, voting for the one of two old clowns who you dislike the least
@@uncletiggermclaren7592 and then they go off and do shit they said they wouldnt
@@uncletiggermclaren7592They don't represent us. We have been forced into two choices, instead of choosing what we want we have to settle for what we can get. We have to choose the lesser of two evils, that is not really representation. This is intentional, both sides are owned by the oligarchs and create merely an illusion of choice.
The 48 laws of power, Law number 31:
Control the options, get others to play with the cards you deal.
That law is to create the illusion of choice, when in reality you make them choose between only the choices that benefit you, instead of allowing them to freely choose what is not beneficial towards you.
@@alexe8330 You are talking about your own issues, not about some vast conspiracy. I promise you, any polis I am a part of, will never ideally suit you, because I am Rational and you are a little Irrational.
"we" will NEVER "get what we want" because "we" don't want anything alike.
It is the nature result of living in large groups of humans. Because life in large groups is complex, YES, you have to settle for what you can get.
No one is causing it, this is the natural fact, events are complex, choices are rarely clear cut, compromise is an essential part of political life.
There are many reasons this would be impossible and unenforcible, including finding out who is dead and alive
"Hi, i'm with the IRS"
"And i'm with an SMG, bro, what's your point?"
"Well you know that funny game you played before the apocalypse? Well patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter" *loads anti material rifle*
I see. That's why The Joker fears the IRS so much.
"We can handle Batman, Harley! But the IRS is completely different..."
That line the dreadnought says in 40k of "Even in death I still serve" is seeming more realistic every day
Our currency would be worthless in such a event and i don't think people would go collect in a nuclear wasteland
Pay with poisoned water. They wont know the difference until its too late.
@@lowrezbs8882LMAO🤣🤣🤣 thanks for making me laugh, I needed it😂
Imagine almost died from nuclear attack and ww3 and just after the war over the irs sends its "negotiation"
Bizarre. We should all stop paying taxes until governments starts actually doing their job. How is it that everything gets gridlocked in Congress and no penalty on senator for not passing bills on time or making an effort to work together? The people don’t hold any power in the current system unless we show it. Stop paying taxes.
Crazy how it was created to be temporary but now has plans to survive when all else dies 😂😂
"Sir we are going to need you to submit a form outlining any successful raids you've conducted lately. Do you have any income sources of iodine tablets or precious metals to claim for this last quarter? Have you found any weapons cashes you'd like to claim this fiscal year? Make sure to also save any receipts for any raided pharmacies as well."
So basically in the wastelands one of the factions we’ll be fighting is the IRS. Finally a worthy enemy.
"Make sure you tax the irradiated corpses, Margaret. Just because they're fused together doesn't mean they can dodge their taxes."
As Warren Zevon once sang:
"And if California slides into the ocean, like the mystics and statistics say it will.
I predict this hotel will still be standing, until I pay my bill."
IRS coming to my bombed out house after nuclear war as I eat a can of beans found in a bombed out walmart: "Those gains declared?"
Me: "Those level 4 plates?"
Prolly would be, yeah. National guard would be the ones collecting, not some IRS accountant. And when your paycheck, food, and water all count on you shaking the coins out of somebody, you're gonna shake pretty hard lol
Imagine wandering the nuclear hellscape remains of America and some goofy mf from the IRS is like, "Hey man, it's tax time."
I absolutely will NOT be sharing my rations with him.
Same
I will add him to my rations
(activating VATS)
Judging by the audacity of the government currently, it makes total sense that after the nukes drop and civilization has crumbled they’ll send armed IRS agents to destroy whatever life the survivors have.
Only suicidal people doing that job in the apocalypse, lmao.
This sounds like the start to a weird video game. The world has fallen apart but your the only irs tax collector left and you have to restart the irs in 12 hours and protect the money from survivors.
Could be an interesting fallout role play game
I'd love to see in a Fallout game randomly spawned IRS agents across the map who you will insist that you owe them money
Tax evasion here we go
The state can't fall! Even after an apocalypse the state stands strong! 😅
IRS employees when they realize they have to fight through waves of mutated animals just to give a single mother with 4 kids a $200000000 tax bill:
Nothing brings people together then having a common enemy.
That's a very cute piece of paper. I will not be paying my (federal) taxes if there is no country serving me after an apocalypse.
They will have enough lead to write that note into Mount Rushmore
If we had a walking dead type apocalypse there'd be no IRS.
Avengers should have just hired the IRS to handle Thanos
I think IRS would be the next Avengers threat.
"You got snapped by Thanos out of existence? Sounds like Tax Evasion to me!"
They will reposes the thanos copter
"Sir, you owe 170 bottle caps."
Now we know who to end in those 12 hours if an apocalypse ever happens
The fact they believe that anybody would care about their so-called authority at that point
*You are the last man/woman alive*
That IRS tax collector ghost: Where is my money?
What if we just all stop paying taxes at the same time? How are they going to have the funds to come after everyone in the US
The IRS: "Sir, you need to pay taxes."
The nuclear shadow: 👻
Bruh even the zombies gotta pay taxes
HOW ARE THERE NO TOP COMMENTS REFERENCING THE NCR!?!?!?
*12 hours after global catastrophe* “thank god I found a can of beans” *tax man appears* “well actually we’ll be taking 2/5ths of that can”
After that the state man tales another 1/5
Then if you hand a spoonful to someone they want half that
Bro if the world ends, the law isn’t here anymore. I can make the tax guy eat the curb.
In that scenario, you could eat the tax guy if he pisses you off enough.
If there is enough government to collect tax they’re going to show up with guns
They should have added it to fallout, a random tax lad come to you to take your money.
Imagine being so hopelessly ignorant that you think government employees work for free.
This feels like fishing. Like something the IRS would do to add names to a post apocalypse hit list.
I can already see the interaction.
IRS: Hello can you pay your taxes in these trying times?
Wastelander: Sure! Ill be paying in 12ga buckshot.
*Bang*
IRS: OH GREAT HEAVENS!
IRS: So sorry sir, I forgot to take of my armoured shoes. Now please pay your taxes or my friends outside in an IRS tank will take your family as payment.
It's like they don't know that they'll be target practice once laws stop existing. This is the IRS the equivalent of a teacher giving you homework on graduation day.
*bold of them to assume that people wouldnt hunt them down for sport and food after the nukes drop*
