 +Most citizens opt to either have a digital ID which identifies them in place
 +of the more sensitive biometric secret pair, and physical identification keys
 +are also common in cases where a citizen travels a lot or lives in a less
 +technologically accessible area.
 +
 +==== Tax and Public Service Policy ====
 +
 +The GSC collects taxes from its citizens using a system which has each individual
 +report their income automatically and calculates a portion which will go to taxes
 +based on their level of income in a marginal bracket system.
 +
 +Corporations are taxed much like citizens, however their brackets are much more
 +aggressive than the individual's, but they are afforded additional legal 
 +protection and assistance early in their formation so as to encourage competition.
 +Notably, when a corporation reaches a certain level of revenue, or reaches the legal
 +definition of a "kilocorp", whichever comes first, they assume the full tax burden
 +of all their employees.
 +
 +Most citizens are never taxed individually either because of active employment, or
 +because the lowest income bracket (which takes no taxes) has historically been quite
 +wide.
 +
 +All GSC Citizens must pay a small, nominal yearly fee in order to maintain access to
 +remote internet citizenship services which allow them to skip a trip to a physical
 +government office. This fee is usually included in their tax calculations.
