And what about our current evil system of taxation?

-tort reform where loser pays

-end medicaid & medicare, & let the healthcare consumers ( or an advocate) shop for their own healthcare in a open marketplace where all prices were made public like sticker prices on new cars.

I could convince you all of these things, but I'd have to write more than you'd be willing to read...its all very boring stuff, & not as much fun as mean tweets, & orange man bad, Biden's a vegetable, ect..
And what about our current evil system of taxation?

When a system of taxation allows the force of government to directly tax one citizen and require that citizen to pay two dollars and then tax a neighbor directly for one dollar, that is an evil system of taxation

When a system of taxation can be used as a political weapon and used to criminally prosecute a government Administrations’ political opponents, that is an evil system of taxation

When a system of taxation has become so complex that those who can afford high priced lawyers and can also avoid paying taxes, that is an evil system of taxation

When the definition of “taxable income” can be manipulated to exclude the friends and donors of certain politicians, that is an evil system of taxation

When a system of taxation makes citizens spend, over 3.24 billion hours a year preparing and filing tax-returns, that is an evil system of taxation.

When a system of taxation costs $37 billion a year in administrative and compliance costs, that is an evil system of taxation

When a system of taxation invites billions of dollars, being spent on lobbying for privileged tax relief to those who can afford it that, is an evil system of taxation

When a system of taxation tells a minister of church what may and may not be said during a sermon, that is an evil system of taxation

When a system of taxation is so intrusive that a taxpayer must disclose some of their most personal and intimate information and spending habits, that is an evil system of taxation

When a tax system gives people back more money than they paid in, it’s an evil system of taxation!


So, what is a frickin solution to the evils connected with the IRS and a tax calculated from profits, gains, sales, interest, salaries, wages, tips, inheritances or any other lawfully realized money? Could it be working to pass the Fair Share Balanced Budget Amendment?

Corporate media is essentially an extension of the DNC- basically their very own Pravda. If it doesn't suit the narrative, it doesn't air. What else can you expect when all the "top" journalism programs are tightly controlled by leftists?

As I have stated many times, today’s Fifth Column media ___ MSNBC, NEW YORK TIMES, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, WASHINGTON POST, ATLANTIC MAGAZINE, New York Daily News, Time, in addition to Facebook, Twitter, Politico, Snopes, Fact Check… ETC., and countless Yellow Journalists who are socialist revolutionaries ___ make Russia’s old Pravda, [an organ of the old Communist Party of the Soviet Union] look like propaganda amateurs.

So, the US, MUST reduce emissions. Got it. For what? Because we can? Stupid. Air quality of the world. As I've said before. Turn off China, India and Russia, problem solved.

Read and weep. Our government is wasting YOUR tax dollars to do a feel good thing.

Drink the cool aid if you want.
