Without police powers you will have a lot of people evading / not paying the taxes. Is your idea that the government set the taxes to a level where it can get by from those that pay? If it’s voluntary why not just have a system where the government has to convince people to donate what it says it needs and set aside the complexity and economic distortions and likely corruption of all the various taxes on different things?
