Well...To voluntaryist on October 21, 2012 3:11 PM:<br /><br />Well said!<br /><br />to Sapiens on October 20, 2012 5:40 PM:<br /><br />Regardless of your motives for paying income taxes, the fact that you do means you DO endorse the system. It's as simple as that.<br /><br />I, too, saw the writing on the wall, and took evasive action. I chose to to suffer whatever sacrifice was required of me to not be a hypocrite and endorse a system I could see was evil to its core. Though I have no family to raise, I know several families with children (often a LOT of children) who did the same. You continue to pay because you fear the discomfort and risk of not doing so, but you still pay. Do you think the Beast doesn't know this? That's why man-made governments use force and fraud to bend you to their will. It works. When it stops working it's because enough unneutered males decided that their family would be better off fatherless in a free land than lovingly fathered in chains. It stops when enough females look outside the 4 walls of their homes and come to the same conclusion.<br /><br />On the same note, it never ceases to amaze me when people who complain of government enslavement still proudly send their boys to war for that very government! What the . . . ?<br /><br />So, it's okay for fathers to die trying to establish hegemony abroad but not for liberty at home?Voluntaryist 2noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-44152748527085077032012-10-23T06:13:26.909-06:002012-10-23T06:13:26.909-06:00". . . dodge their duty."

(that wages <i>are</i> income.)<br /><br />My expectation is yet another sham ruling, but in doing so they<br />will only further weaken their estate and further erode the <br />foundation that keeps the fedgov in power.

But when they do take a case that might limit gov't they will side with gov't, city, county, state, or federal. Take the New London case. They expanded eminent domain from taking for public use to taking for private use if a higher tax revenue "might be" realized. They equated more revenue for gov't with a "common good". Following this argument to its logical conclusion, if taxation were to reach 100%, the maximum common good could be achieved. Should we all surrender all our wealth "for the common good"? Would we all be better off? The SCOTUS believes so. This is typical of the gov't mindset. It was thought to be an indefensible statement when a king declared: "The state? I am the state!" Now we have the gov't declaring: "The common good? Whatever benefits the gov't is the common good." And so we are all expected to serve the gov't, reversing the principle of gov't as servant of the people as expressed in the D. of I. voluntaryisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04241590374328028776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-65263696416361735212012-10-22T15:37:11.905-06:002012-10-22T15:37:11.905-06:00Reminds me of the USSR where all they had to do is...Reminds me of the USSR where all they had to do is watch you until some law was broken.

It is obvious to everyone but the IRS<br />that wages are not income.<br /><br />In light of the last Supreme Court ruling regarding Obama Care as a tax,<br />it will be interesting to see how they torture the constitution to<br />justify stealing money from our wages.<br /><br />Working for wages is a bargained for exchange of goods and services<br />that generates no income whatsoever.<br /><br />I am very surprised that the Supreme Court has agreed to even hear<br />this case.<br /><br />willbnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-11355988813746993432012-10-21T15:11:04.666-06:002012-10-21T15:11:04.666-06:00Sapiens: The pronoun "you" refers to all...Sapiens: The pronoun "you" refers to all collectivist/statists in the sentence "... the gov't you created and support." That could be inferred from the context. If you thought it incorrectly referred to you, why would you? Are you doing all you can to resist the state? I quit my first job in 1954 at age 12 and started a business to avoid the deductions (theft) taken from my check. <br /><br />You claim to be paying taxes to stay out of jail so you can raise your children. Only you know if this is the best way for your situation. But from your objection to my use of "you" I sense a guilty conscience. <br /><br />Ask your children how they view your tax paying. Do they know you pay "under protest"? Do they know you hate the state? Do they know why? This would be important feedback that tells you if you are countering the message of the state. <br /><br />I was open and vocal about my tax resistance in the seventies. All my friends and associates had no doubt I would go to jail. Most of the other tax protesters I knew did just that. I saw first hand many examples of illegal, unjust prosecutions. I was targeted. I took evasive action and escaped. I learned that direct confrontation is futile and went underground where I have lived as freely as possible, under the shadow of the growing police state. It should be obvious to anyone who is not a state apologist that we who are not part of the ruling elite are all in danger. The law is not for our protection. The law creates the illusion of justice and promotes obedience to the myth that gov't is necessary. voluntaryisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04241590374328028776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32869165.post-28220798524430243232012-10-21T14:26:05.327-06:002012-10-21T14:26:05.327-06:00Is Wendy Olson a man or a woman?

The public does not judge the gov't workers by the same standards as citizens. It grants them immunity from moral judgements.
