I'm sorry but that's bullshit.

strike is more efficient than not paying taxes

that's the bullshit. The government, like any organization, is utterly dependent in financial input. Without it, they fall over. Withholding taxes is the strongest move that protesters can make.

A government that run its own currency does not necessarily need taxes to sustain itself.

As of currently the way the government works is everything is paid for by printing money and the government taking out loans. It claws some money back with taxes but they haven't covered the government since I have been alive.
