And I thought that US society was in trouble, with our low rate of tax
compliance (80% or so).  Please don't move here and drag down our
average.  It sounds like you might find Russia rather congenial.  I
think it's pretty easy to avoid paying any taxes at all there.  Of
course, if you offend the wrong people, they will just kill you.  You
can hardly expect the police to protect you with no taxes to pay them.
But then, with all that money you save, I suppose you can hire your own
private army.  Sounds like a recipe for a much better society than our
boring one where people pay the taxes they owe.
