I think we all know is one of the great advantages of bitcoin is, well, the ability to easily commit tax evasion to put it bluntly and honestly. I don't think the average person has a problem with this though. If you ask them, "would you prefer to have extra money to buy your kids some new clothes, or pay that money in taxes so your govt can bomb brown people in the Middle East, and the TSA can feel you up?", most will say the former.
So let's make it easy for them. I envision a site with a world map, where you just click on your country of residency / choice. On the next page, there's information for both, employees and employers.
Employers
I could be wrong, but I wouldn't doubt there's loads of struggling small businesses out there who would have no problem dropping a few employees off the payroll, and paying them via bitcoin instead, since it will save them the employers share of taxes, plus increase employee loyalty & retention. So first, we display information regarding that country / regions tax laws, explaining to them how much they can save. Then we make it easy for them by having a compiled list of local exchanges that make it easy for them to at least semi-anonymously switch fiat into BTC, and pay their employees.
Employees
Printable PDF they can provide their employer with explaining the benefits of paying out in BTC, and push the employees to request their employer pay in BTC. Plus of course, things such as a nice pre-compiled list of wallets & services that allow them to pull BTC out into their local currency when desired, etc. And the most important, a list of ways to spend their money locally. Whether that's the Dell / Expedia web site, purchasing gift cards online, using localbitcoins.com to make online payments, and so on.
Of course use other points as well, such as it's your money, and nobody's business how much you have, or what you spend it on. Plus at any given time, probably at least two dozen different entities have access to your bank account, can view the balance, withdraw funds, etc.
Not many people out there agree with their govts, and I'd say almost a majority disagree with this "war on terror". If we can convince them they can save 25% of their money by not paying taxes to murder people in the Middle East, and give them clear & concise information on how to do so, it may help. Thoughts?
