The Daylight Robbery Series: How Taxes Shaped Civilization & Control Society | Episode 2 of 13
They say death and taxes are the only certainties in life—but what if taxation has always been about control rather than necessity? In this explosive second episode of The Daylight Robbery Series, Dominic Frisby exposes the shocking history of taxation, its hidden influence on civilization, and why the modern taxpayer has more in common with a medieval serf than they realize.
🔥 What You'll Learn in This Episode:
🔹 How taxation existed before civilization itself—and why it's the backbone of every empire
🔹 The mind-blowing connection between taxation, war, and political control
🔹 Why your most expensive lifetime purchase isn’t a house—it’s your government
🔹 How ancient rulers designed societies through taxation—and how governments do it today
🔹 The forgotten history of voluntary taxation in Ancient Greece—and why it actually worked
🔹 Why Bitcoin and financial sovereignty could be the ultimate escape from taxation tyranny
Taxation isn’t just about funding public services—it’s about shaping behavior, controlling populations, and keeping power in the hands of the few. As we break down Chapters 3-4 of Daylight Robbery, prepare to see history in a completely new light.
