The power shift may allow the individual the control he needs to end all these ridiculous forms of taxation and possibly greatly reduce it from a surfdom level 40-50 combined (income + sales + property + whatever) to a reasonable sub 10% over the next several years. (Why should Caesar deserve more than God commands in tithe?)
The other thing bitcoin does is allow programmable money distribution through taxation instead of this lump sum BS, and we can avoid greedy middle man agencies, and that can be done while putting the people first since they will be able to verify that the money gets distributed properly. (Zap prisms for taxation.)

The fundamental change needed is the desire of the state to subdue the citizenry transformed to the desire to please the citizenry. This will only happen if the citizenry become more powerful than the state, and the state becomes once more a vehicle or tool of the citizenry to accomplish a good the citizens individually cannot, such as establishing standardization (minimal, not non-existent, red tape), enforcing law (which laws ought to benefit society at large rather than hinder), and organizing and enabling the citizens to protect themselves (aka militia).
