Part of the benefit of privilege is in the form of cost savings or risk reduction, and hence represents untaxed privilege.
Male privilege allows you to walk around at night while enjoying considerably lower risk of robbery, assault, and rape. (This might be offset by higher risk when walking around, say, a gay district.)
White privilege often allows you to live in better housing and better neighborhoods, which reduces your risk of various hazards and often affords you lower insurance costs (e.g. auto, homeowner).
The above are examples of untaxed privilege; there is no tax on the money you avoid spending.

Actually gay neighbourhoods tend to be safer than average. Gays tend to be affluent and areas gentrify.
Generally, not all the time, I'm sure but the "gay areas" I've seen or passed by in some big cities tend to be clean and safe.
I don't want to see a "white privilege tax" but I do wan t to see a change in the tax code so retained earnings cannot buy legal privilege.
I propose a tax on all income from all sources, including illegal, with a single deduction set at the 90th percentile. That way the top 10% of the people that own 90% of the wealth will pay for the government that protects their wealth with their own money. The bottom 90% of us would enjoy our raise in income and spend or save it as we wish.
I think liberals should be taxed for hoarding all the cool old school buildings at my university and forcing us STEM students to study in the ugly 1977 looking buildings on the dead side of campus. Not to mention they elect Democrats who drive up urban property costs with their high tax policies, thus forcing Engineering companies to relocate their factories to the exurbs where it's boring, there's no attractive girls, and there's nothing to do. Liberals have been obstructionists to my social life. They should be taxed to fund my 6 month trip to Mexico, so I can experience cool cities, cool architecture, and meet some hot women.
Stupid isn't it. Hill-dog is sooooo desperate she is going to play the feminist card. How exciting. Are you really that stupid. She is trying to mimic Trump.
