He made the mistake of transferring his shares in the Morgoth Foundations, but was unaware Sauron LLC bought the IP during its liquidation

No taxes.

after a multiple wars and orc/uruk incursions devastated Gondor's infrastructure, economy, army and food supplies, I imagine it would be a tax nightmare just to make up for all those losses. Heavy taxes to repair Minas Tirith and Osgiliath, compensate farmers and encourage agricultural growth, resettle refugees and rebuild the armed forces. But problem would be taxing an impoverished/devastated population. I think a sensible policy would be to tax the remaining forces of Sauron, I'm sure there would have been plenty of orcs and uruks still scattered throughout Middle Earth

Look no further for proof that institutionalized orcophobic attitudes are still alive and well in the Fourth Age.

Nothing. Gondor has no currency. Everyone just makes oaths and participates in the oath economy.

A flat 10% tax. The only fair tax among men!

>he was truly a man of the people
This scene makes that clear
Gimmli: most have seen too many audits, or to few
Legolos: They look afraid, and they should be, a few hundred deductions, against 10000, They will not get a return If they File
Aarogon: Then I shall File as one of them!

>relations
what if they were asexual? did you ever think of that you fucking orc bigot?
Brody Bailey
Sauron only sent his army to Gondor in retaliation after raids by men that left many Orc families without fathers, husbands, brothers, and sons. History is written by the winners.

Obviously he would first shore things up on the home front by setting up Gondor-subsidized weed farms to eliminate the Hobbit monopoly, placing a tax on all the brothels (where all the women in the story were because they needed to support themselves when all the men went to war), and forcing all buyers of swords over 1m long to get a special tax stamp.
Internationally, he would secretly sell arms to the eastern men and goad them into attacking the lonely mountain, then sell the peoples of the lonely mountain weapons and profit from their war. Working closely with the dwarves, he would trade political influence and Gondor's aid for access to their many banks and systems of usury, implanting dwarves in key parts of the Gondor government, centers of education, and entertainment industry. Through this alliance, Dwarves would use Gondor's aid to maintain Gondor's political and economic objectives outside of Gondor's borders, mostly the Eastern Lands, where Mithril flows like oil. The dwarves would be painted as outcasts, hounded for ages by the numenoreans and elves for their different economic beliefs and different religion.

He didn't have one. That's why he was so beloved.
Lincoln Kelly
How centralized was Gondor's administration?
John Torres
But seriously, what did the Humans do about the remaining Orcs that fled after Sauron's defeat? They couldn't let them hang around waiting to rise up against Man again

>"The treatment of colour nearly always horrifies anyone going out from Britain, & not only in South Africa. Unfort[unately], not many retain that generous sentiment for long." ― Letter 61 — Written to Christopher Tolkien who was stationed in South Africa during World War II

>"I must say that the enclosed letter from Rutten & Loening is a bit stiff. Do I suffer this impertinence because of the possession of a German name, or do their lunatic laws require a certificate of arisch origin from all persons of all countries? ... Personally I should be inclined to refuse to give any Bestätigung (although it happens that I can), and let a German translation go hang. In any case I should object strongly to any such declaration appearing in print. I do not regard the (probable) absence of all Jewish blood as necessarily honourable; and I have many Jewish friends, and should regret giving any colour to the notion that I subscribed to the wholly pernicious and unscientific race-doctrine." ― Letter 29 — In response to Tolkien's German publishers asking whether he was of Aryan origin
>"It was Sam's first view of a battle of Men against Men, and he did not like it much. He was glad that he could not see the dead face. He wondered what the man's name was and where he came from; and if he was really evil at heart, or what lies or threats had led him on the long march from his home; and if he would not really rather have stayed there in peace." ― The Two Towers, "Of Herbs and Stewed Rabbit"

>Thank you for your letter. I regret that I am not clear as to what you intend by arisch. I am not of Aryan extraction: that is Indo-Iranian; as far as I am aware none of my ancestors spoke Hindustani, Persian, Gypsy, or any related dialects. But if I am to understand that you are enquiring whether I am of Jewish origin, I can only reply that I regret that I appear to have no ancestors of that gifted people. ― Letter 30 — An unsent letter to Tolkien's German publishers in which he notes that "Aryan" is a linguistic term.

Orcs were only organized by saruon/saruman, they probably only became a minor problem after

Tax on consumption only. Land tax every 50 years. No tax on income. Massive tariffs on all orc goods.
