    Sure, you pay less in tax

    But generally more in “fees” and other things that are really taxes but just aren’t called that.

      There is the passage in Pratchetts book, where magicians argue that they don’t have to pay taxes to the city.

      I can’t find it online, but in the end, they did not pay taxes - just voluntary tribute, in the same amount, of course.
