@Hyolobrika @freemo Not paying taxes in germany is more complicated.
Most taxes are deducted automatically. Stores collect added value tax, income taxes are deducted from wages. You can get some back, so you could cheat by declaring fraudulent returns, but if you do nothing, the tax is payed.
It would be more relevant on a company level, employing someone without declaring - but at that point, we're at state vs. company, not state vs. individual.
