now if we can get that a little more understandable for uneducated poor people - and use a different term for 'tax' - maybe just call that a 'network/transaction fee'

Language evolves. There is nothing about taxation that says it has to use coercion, just like governance does not have to use coercion, "governance 2.0" is about voluntary markets for government, Paul Émile de Puydt talked about that 150 years ago, Panarchy. There also isn't anything about "state" that says it has to use coercion, the Nakamoto consensus is a non-coerced state. Most people I bump into that get triggered by the word "taxes" are people who identify with some ideology like "libertarianism" that screams that people should not have ideology. That is just double-speak, statism. I do not care about the monopoly on violence, I am interested in P2P, Resilience is a taxation system.
