There are endless ways countries make money that don't involve income tax.

The problem is most westerners have been duped into thinking life will come to a halt if they don't do their duty and pay taxes to the government. Nothing could be further from the truth. "Who will build the roads" is the silliest thing one can say in regards to this. Roads get built just fine without income tax.
