| Inflation is worse because it eats away at savings and most of your assets while taxes are simply a portion of income. Did I get that right?

I'd take taxes over inflation though, because they're transparent and can be planned for while at a minimum I could maintain my purchasing power (quality of money). Fed Up | ||||

| Higher taxes. Inflation would be harder to overcome. Besides, taxes like the income tax, etc. can generally be thought of ahead and you can work around them. | ||||
