Congress wrangles over the simplification of income tax when in fact, it is and has always been an issue for the volunteers who pay it. Who on earth has any right to the personal information provided on income tax returns? No one but the person who chooses to disclose – or not. Income taxes are appropriate to corporations which (supposedly) exist at the pleasure of states and somehow rule the world. It can never apply to any sovereign individual except they surrender their sovereignty and swear an oath that their personal information as revealed, is complete and correct. Every person who files a signed return at any level of
government is witnessing and swearing against him/herself for the purposes of
maritime law. You see, the United States is really floating upon two oceans so
we come under maritime and contract law. You choose to divulge your most
intimate and personal information because “everybody does it.” It is just no
big deal. Or is it?
The divulgence of this highly personal information is done because it has always
been so way back to 1913 and that’s good enough for you. If you take a look at
the original income tax of 1913, you quickly see what an abomination it has
become and how it has expanded to collect data – spy on citizens. So what?
Perhaps half the U.S. workforce or more, has been duped into sacrificing
personal sovereignty to an employing corporation that is a creation of the state
we are supposed to be running.
But it doesn’t end there. Withholding taxes, whether weekly or quarterly are
the Lord’s tithe – the firstfruits. You pay them to your god. If you work
for any corporation at half or less of your market value, you have already
agreed to send your firstfruits to your god. For this, you can expect to be
punished by the god you worship or the one you are trying to hide from.
The national government has unlimited credit. Why should it tax anything or
anybody? Because if the surplus currency and bank credit in circulation is not
skimmed off in the course of the year, we get inflation, which robs everyone,
especially lenders. This is why a private corporation of bank operators, tweak
the short term interest rates a quarter point per quarter year. Got to start
raking in the excess credit. What does the Constitution say about private
interests doing the national banking. It says to promote the general welfare. It
is good for the people to have foxes guarding the hen house. That’s what the
Constitution people defend with their lives, says. Steal from the poor and give
to the rich. It is good for the people and they will go along with it all
because we will keep them too busy to read or study such matters. They have
become our god, demand our worship and get it from our paychecks and tax
returns. We pay for what we want. The atheist worships this god, the Jew, the
Catholic, the Evangelical, the Hindu, Buddhist and Muslim worship this god, in
the West. Some Arabs seem to have a strenuous objection to worshipping this god
and blow their selves up in protest. Our money has become our chief object of
affection and we hire thieves to manage it for us. We kill and terrorize the
people who don’t agree with us. Then we pat ourselves on the back saying, good
job, what?
Abraham Lincoln and John Kennedy wanted to have honest money and intended to
create it. Someone changed their minds. For 140 years and longer we have been
playing the game with Monopoly money – literally. Give us your freedom and
we’ll give you a job. Who can resist an offer like that? Only someone who
should not be investing in the status quo because everybody does it, so it’s A
OK. It is a betrayal of whoever does not worship the money god, as Osama tells
us. It is a betrayal of your brother or sister who objects to the way we are
being used by the rich to get richer. It is an insult to all the people of the
earth who have rejected the money god, when given a choice. But hey! Screw them
all if they can’t take a joke. We are with them in spirit. And that is the lie
that condemns one with their own words, spoken or thought. We have masters who
reap where they do not sow. Hard masters - unjust and unmerciful.
The governments have turned their selves over to their corporate creations and
no one is supposed to notice. Corporations choose candidates for the most
popular parties and elect them. The people vote their approval of the corporate
process. The corporate masters write the laws we are expected to obey. They
choose the wording, send their agents to targeted politicians and simply say, we
would like this law passed. The politicians say OK and one submits the bill. The
others vote to approve it. Can democracy get any simpler than this?
The fix is in and has been from the good old days when daily life was a struggle
for most folks. We have kept very busy through the centuries and - look at all
the wonderful works that have come of it! Who has the nerve to say government of
the people, by the rich, for the rich, is not the perfect path to world peace?
