The Daylight Robbery Series: The Hidden History of Taxation | Episode 1 of 13
Uncover the shocking truth about taxation that schools never teach you! From window taxes that changed architecture for centuries to Hong Kong's economic miracle, this episode with Dominic Frisby, author of Daylight Robbery, reveals how the entire course of civilization has been shaped by taxation and rebellion against it.
Dominic masterfully explains the hidden power dynamics behind taxation, showing how every revolution in history has been a response to tax injustice. Learn how the "art of taxation consists of plucking the goose to obtain the most feathers with the least possible hissing" - and why there's so much hissing happening across the Western world today.
Discover how Hong Kong transformed from one of the world's poorest regions into a global economic powerhouse through radical economic freedom and minimalist government. Could this model be the answer to our modern financial woes? Could Trump and Musk be ushering in America's Hong Kong moment?
In this first installment of our Daylight Robbery series, we explore the brilliant insights from Chapters 1-2 that explain why your government is likely your most expensive lifetime purchase, how taxation creates unintended consequences, and why financial sovereignty might be the ultimate form of freedom in the digital age.
