Can conservatives just collectively move to the gold standard/barter system and stop the government from taking 50%+ of our damn pie? That would be great.
Barter is taxable but difficult to enforce. Nobody cares if someone babysits your kids and you pay them back with a pizza. But if you sell land to a company in exchange for a bunch of their stock, that's definitely reportable.

No, they will literally send armed men to take you out for trying it.
