It isn't. You could choose not to have a telly. Ergo, you wouldn't need
to pay the TV License. Your choice.

[OT: This is why "car tax" is a misnomer; it's Road Fund License. If you
don't have a roadgoing vehicle, you don't pay.]

Tax is something you can't avoid unless you have a clever accountant. Or
are mates with Gordon Brown.
