  • Pudge, it's nice to see your mind working along the same lines mine does in regards to this. :-)

    In America, the people are the Sovereign (king) and any powers we have not specifically delegated to the Federal Government, it does NOT have the power to assume. It has consistently amazed me what We The People have been letting them get away with. Particularly with regards to gradual encroachment.

    DOES ANYONE mean to tell me that you aren't YET feeling the bite of giving up over 30% of your income ? Working for someone else and NOT for yourself from January to May and not even getting to gain one DRACHMA of interest on that monetary compensation for your labor?

    How many of you have looked up the definition of 'employee' in the IRC? How about 'person'? Does the fact that 'income' is used in the *definition* of 'income' not strike anyone as odd? The fact that Case Law has supported the fact that the 16th amendment changed NOTHING with regards to previous laws already in place?

    DON'T EVEN get me started about what they've done to our money. 90% of the population I've encountered and posited a few facts regarding this have outright refused any intelligent debate whatsoever. Which I thoroughly cannot understand in light of what they have tacitly agreed to give up in order to remain blind, deaf, and dumb.

    Interestingly enough, the quote at the bottom of the use.perl page was this:

    "If history teaches us anything, it's that everyone will be part of the problem, but not everyone will be part of the solution."
                            --Larry Wall

    The saddest thing I've seen in the last 10 years is the rise in 'Patriotism' with hardly the slightest idea of the totality of what that means and entails, and up until recently, if you even *made patriotic noises* people looked at you as if you had lost your mind. Needless to say, these people sadden me enough to make me physically sick to my stomach.

      Well, you'll just have to make your patriotic stomach noises LOUDER next time!
