Makes no sense at all. If the system you are living under is completely corrupt, why would paying taxes to that system be a good thing? Unless perhaps you enjoy being a slave and taking it up the poop-shoot. Nobody asked me if I wanted my tax money to go towards killing innocent people over in Iraq and Afghanistan. When it comes to the income tax, that money does not even go to the government for maintaining infrastructure, federal programs, etc. It goes to paying off the interest owed on the national debt to the private bankers of the Federal Reserve, which is a private institution.
a guy I worked with owed over 600 grand in taxes and fines, he had to spend 6 months in jail with another year of home confinement and he was clear to go. On the other hand, the tax system suck.
because if you DON'T pay taxes they are borrowing the money from the fed ANYWAY making the fed more profitable and decreasing the value of your dollars, which is taxing you and letting bernanke take you up the poopshoot ANYWAY so, at least if your ass is paying taxes you are giving SOME chance for the people your idiot peers voted in a chance at it shit rat, I think you would have known that.
No taxes are not bad. However unfair taxes are. When the people who create jobs are used to underwrite ridiculous worthless government programs ...there is a problem. When my money buys bombs and builds military aircraft and equipment to kill people in a unjust war...there is a problem. When we spend billions trying to feed the world when people in our own country are starving...there is a problem. When we underwrite corrupt governments and leaders that steal the money and let their own people starve...there is a problem. When we use tax money to bail out mega corporations that can't even run their own business...there is a problem. When we spend money on Nationwide TV and Radio commercials for the postal service and medicare, while our infrastructure falls apart...there is a problem. Unfair taxation on the people who produce value in the USA makes them move their business out of the US and into counties which have fairer tax situations. (I wounder how I know that?) I could go on but it is clear to me the USA is going to destroy itself soon enough. It will not be a terrorist attack. It will be incompetent government leadership. I could go on but why bother.
The US government is far from incompetent. Corrupt and evil? Yes. Incompetent? No way. When something happens, it happens because it was intended to happen. The incompetence theory shared by much of the public is probably the best thing the people in power have going for them.
if you don't understand what I said I am very very disappointed. taxes aren't the problem. uncontrolled government and an uneducated electorate are.
I think there is plenty of incompetence. But I agree there is a hell of a lot of evil. I do not think the plans of those in power will work. The more they clamp down, the more people will slip through their fingers. The "end game" is not a predetermined conclusion. The real power is in the individual. It is up to us. The outcome is not set in stone. But I am way off topic. I am sure Dave must have expected my reaction to taxes.
you're going to become a lawyer... you should do it for me! and why the hell am i always the last to know? :tongue:
