A New Country with No Taxes?
Mark Hamilton poses a revolutionary thought experiment: what if a country existed with no taxes, no burdensome regulations, and no initiatory force? What would happen when businesses, innovators, and hardworking people flood to this new society?
How Can a Country Function Without Taxes?
A country with no taxes is possible through voluntary tithing to competing service providers instead of forced taxation. Combined with no burdensome regulations and the Prime Law that bans initiatory force, this creates a society where everyone can live like multi-millionaires, disease is cured rapidly, and crime virtually disappears.
- ✓A country with no taxes and no regulations would trigger an unprecedented economic boom
- ✓Citizens voluntarily tithe 10% to competing service providers—your dollars do the voting
- ✓The Prime Law bans all initiatory force—only self-defense force is permitted
- ✓The computer industry proves it: unregulated innovation makes everything cheaper and better
- ✓Three pillars of the new society: universal wealth, health, and safety for all
What Would Happen If a Country Had No Taxes?
Mark Hamilton poses a thought experiment: imagine a country in this world with no taxes—and one that anyone could afford to live in (not like Monaco, where only the wealthy can reside). What would happen?
Imagine for a Moment…
We already see this principle in action on a smaller scale. People and businesses “vote with their feet,” moving from high-tax states like California to low-tax states like Texas and Florida. Now imagine this at a global scale.
- 🏢 Businesses would pack up and flood to the new country
- 🧠 A worldwide “brain drain” of the smartest, most innovative people
- 👷 Hardworking people would follow the businesses for great jobs
- 🏗️ All industries would boom to support this influx
- 📈 The economy would experience explosive growth
“The most important thing in any country is its economy,” Hamilton explains. “So right there, we’ve conquered big step number one. The economy would boom.”
It’s Not Just About Taxes
Hamilton’s vision goes beyond merely eliminating taxes. The new country would also have no government-backed burdensome regulations—the kind that destroy industries like energy and health.
“Why should one adult have the right or be able to use force upon another adult? They shouldn’t. I don’t care if they’re career politicians. I don’t care if they’re regulatory bureaucrats.”
Hamilton identifies the root issue: initiatory force. Throughout all of human history, governments have claimed the legal right to use force against their own citizens to compel compliance. Among the general population, initiating force is illegal—but governments have always exempted themselves.
Self-defense force (protecting people from crime and invasion) is legitimate. Initiatory force (forcing citizens to comply with political agendas) is morally wrong and would be banned in the new country.
Government as a Business: A Revolutionary Concept
If you can’t use force, how can “government” exist? Hamilton’s answer transforms everything: it becomes a business based on mutual value exchange.
Two Ways to “Vote”
Ballot Voting
Bombarded with illusions for four years. Cast one vote. Stuck with results for a decade. Devastating mistakes can’t be corrected quickly.
Dollar Voting
Your money instantly goes to the best value providers. Poor service? Switch immediately. Greatest values rise to the top automatically.
Instead of forced taxation, citizens tithe 10% to service providers of their choice. You can research and allocate your tithe to specific services—this military, this police force, this court system—or simply give it to the main provider. If they don’t deliver value, your dollars go to a competitor.
“When your dollars do the voting, that drives to the surface the greatest values more quickly. When you shuffle off to a voting booth and get stuck with someone for four years, you’re into almost a decade of what could be disastrous results. Dollar voting instantly puts the best things for the country at the top.”
The Computer Revolution: Proof It Works
Hamilton points to a real-world example that proves the concept: the computer industry.
The Unregulated Industry That Changed Everything
Computers advanced so rapidly that the government couldn’t get its regulatory grip on the industry. The result? Computing power that only Fortune 500 companies could afford now fits in your pocket.
Peter Thiel noted that during his college years, going into most engineering fields would have been a mistake—they were too heavily regulated. Nuclear engineering was essentially killed by regulation. Only computer science flourished because it was unregulated.
Now imagine this happening in EVERY industry—health, energy, housing, transportation—when you remove politicized, force-backed regulations. Values would rise, costs would drop, and people could live like multi-millionaires with very little income.
The Three Pillars: Wealth, Health, and Safety
The Beautiful Society
Why Hamilton calls it “the beautiful society”
Wealth
Everyone lives like multi-millionaires. Come with nothing and quickly achieve prosperity. The computer revolution across ALL industries.
Health
The medical mecca of the world. Cures for cancer, heart disease, and aging itself—all within our lifetime.
Safety
Crime dries up and disappears. No motivation (everyone is wealthy) and swift consequences. Crime becomes theoretical, not practical.
Why Crime Would Virtually Disappear
Hamilton explains why crime would “largely dry up and disappear” in the new country.
Motivation Eliminated
- ✓ Primary driver of crime is “easy path to money”
- ✓ When everyone lives like multi-millionaires…
- ✓ Sitting on your butt becomes easier than crime
- ✓ “Live like a millionaire without lifting a finger”
- ✓ The rational motivation simply vanishes
Consequences Swift
- ✓ Individual is the greatest protected value
- ✓ Prime Law protects smallest minority: the individual
- ✓ Swift and harsh consequences for violations
- ✓ No racism—everyone protected equally
- ✓ Crime becomes theory, not practice
“There’d be no such thing as racism or any of the problems we see that politicians actually use to divide us against each other,” Hamilton adds. “It’s all part of their tricks and illusions.”
The Billionaire Opportunity
Billionaires Who Want to Live Forever
Peter Thiel and a significant group of billionaires have made curing aging a personal goal. They’ve poured tens or hundreds of millions of dollars into life extension research.
The problem? They’re doing this research in countries where the health industry is heavily politicized with force-backed regulations. Progress is agonizingly slow.
“Put it this way,” Hamilton explains, “they will eventually cure these complex diseases—but not in Peter Thiel’s lifetime in America or Europe. If these billionaires want this in their lifetime, they need to take a serious look at what I’m doing.”
The new country would become the medical mecca of the world because researchers could finally get the government off their backs and pursue genuine value creation without bureaucratic interference.
The Prime Law: Constitution of the New Country
Everything Hamilton describes is made possible by a single supreme law that would serve as the constitution of the new country.
The Prime Law
The purpose of human life is to prosper and live happily. The function of government is to provide the conditions that let individuals fulfill that purpose. The Prime Law guarantees those conditions by forbidding the use of initiatory force, fraud, or coercion by any person or group against any individual, property, or contract.
No person, group of persons, or government shall initiate force, threat of force, or fraud against any individual’s self, property, or contract.
Force is morally and legally justified only for protection from those who violate Article One.
No exception shall exist for Articles One and Two.
“There is this dimension we’ve always lived in, and there’s this new dimension under the Prime Law,” Hamilton explains. “I’m inviting our listeners to step into the beginnings of this new country.”
The Roadmap: Digital to Land-Based
From Digital Country to Sovereign Land
Digital Country Launch
A “social container” where people who understand this vision can connect. Those who’ve studied Neothink literature for decades share their knowledge with newcomers.
Growing Influence
As membership grows, so does collective GDP and influence. Crowdfunding and resources accumulate. Powerful players who recognize this as their path to biological immortality may accelerate the timeline.
Land-Based Sovereignty
Acquire physical territory and work toward sovereignty. Businesses flood in, becoming the medical mecca of the world. The Prime Law in full effect creating wealth, health, and safety for all.
If billionaires who want to cure aging recognize this as their only true path to achieving it in their lifetime, they could accelerate the land-based timeline significantly with their resources and influence.
A New Dimension of Civilization
Hamilton sees this as more than just a new country—it’s an entirely new dimension of human civilization.
“America was an experiment, it was an idea, and it became the best that there was in the world. But now it’s time for another experiment, another idea. And this is what I’m moving into.”
Unlike every civilization in history, this society would have no ruling class. Everything operates through mutual value exchange. The power structure that has defined all human societies—where some use force to rule others—simply wouldn’t exist.
The old dimension: ruling classes use initiatory force to control populations. The new dimension: mutual value exchange with the Prime Law preventing anyone from initiating force. These two dimensions don’t intersect—you must step entirely into the new one.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can a country function without taxes?
Citizens voluntarily tithe 10% to service providers of their choice. If you want to live in “the beautiful society,” you agree to this tithe—but you control where it goes. Your dollars do the voting, creating accountability through market forces rather than political promises.
What about big businesses that benefit from current regulations?
Hamilton acknowledges that many large companies are “married with politicians” and benefit from regulations that block competition. These companies likely won’t move. But genuine “market business people”—true value creators—would flood to the new country to escape taxes and regulations.
Wouldn’t removing all regulations be dangerous?
The Prime Law specifically protects individuals from harm. Self-defense force is fully justified. What’s removed are agenda-driven regulations backed by initiatory force that suppress innovation without actually protecting anyone.
How does “government as a business” work?
It’s subjected to competition. If the service providers don’t deliver value, your tithe dollars go to a competitor. This creates instant accountability—unlike voting, where you’re stuck with results for years regardless of performance.
Why would billionaires be interested?
Many billionaires have poured hundreds of millions into longevity research with frustratingly slow progress due to regulations. The new country would be the only place they could pursue unhindered research and potentially achieve biological immortality in their lifetime.
What makes this different from other libertarian visions?
The Prime Law with Article Three: “No exception shall exist.” Every other system eventually grants exceptions that allow initiatory force to creep back in. The Prime Law’s absolute prohibition prevents the gradual erosion that has destroyed every other experiment in freedom.
Is there a cost to join the digital country?
Currently, there’s no cost. In the future, fundraising will be necessary for land acquisition and sovereignty efforts. Right now, it’s a community where people who understand this vision connect.
