Taxation without Representation....

[BurntJ]

So with all the craziness going on, I have really been thinking about this lately. Living in GA (though NOT in the ROME area), what has been going on with MTG and her district. THEY elected her to represent THEM, yet Congress has thrown her off all committees has taken her out of any meaningful representation. 1st of this is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS to ALL RED states as they CRIMINAL in DC are presently attempting to Expel her from Congress. This is the crux of my argument as they have literally taken representation AWAY from Rome area residence. (This is also what was attempted with Trump)

To me the answer is for EVERY Red Blooded American citizen to have their companies STOP withholding tax (or paying ANY) and we all need to stop this. To me, its the ONLY way to force the government to STOP USING OUR OWN MONEY (taxes) against us. Once the money slows/stops flowing......the merry go round ends.

Help me out here fellas.

I'm with you man. I've been trying to figure out what to do, but this is country is broken

I posted this thread last night, only one response:

How can we have a government of the people, by the people and for the people

Without trust? I don’t see any way that trust can be repaired at this point. I don’t trust the election system, I don’t trust the secret police (NSA, FBI, CIA), I don’t trust the DoD, I don’t trust the Democrats or Republicans. Where do we go from here? About time someone starts drafting up...

You’re right man, if we were all to just stop doing something I.e. wearing masks, and everyone just agreed to stop then what could they really do about it? The problem is, we will never get everyone on board to do something.

True BUT..... (say for argument sake say America truly is a 50/50 country). Say whatever they want BUT most Conservatives: A) aren't taking gov money monthly B) Are Middle Class and being taxed to death. So in theory, this IF ALL/MOST conservatives in Red states REFUSED TO PAY FEDERALLY..... the spicket would dry up.

You don't need to get everyone on board. The American Revolution was supported by a very small number of colonists.

I was thinking about taxes today also. Very clearly taxation without representation.

If they can vote reparations, packing the court, and all the other bs. What is to stop states from voting in laws banning fed taxes?

You do realize that the government can, at any time, take money out of your bank accounts. This is legal and they do it all the time for “unpaid taxes.”

Let me guess....You’re not a Lawyer BUT you did sleep in a
holiday Inn last night.


Actually....there are ways delay this. For instance, we could have our employers change us to exempt. This then delays the gov. Until April 15th.

In theory, if enough people did this at the start of the year, there is NO way the government would make it through Sept. much less Dec.

Live in the commie heaven of Broward county and the mask mandates are ridiculous. City just east of me has masks outside now. I never wear one and will not put one on until I enter the establishment and take a few step into it. Then I clearly pull it down below my nose because every black women wears them like that so I can too. Then at Publix say, as soon as I pay and get my cart I take it off and walk out. Have even had the store manager say hello to me and smile. It is starting but we need to make small moves to get people to believe.

No I’m not a lawyer but I am a victim of government overreach.

However, I think you might be on to something. Instead of “Defund the Police” maybe we should “Defund the government.”

No doubt

I’m in.

I guess I’ll start buying crypto and sell off anything the government can take. Anyone interested in a single family home in CA?

Crypto does provide a mechanism for side stepping “the system”. Businesses need to create a network and give out tokens for helping or supporting those businesses and then they can be exchanged for goods and services within that network. I could see something like that sprinting up through this site. You must have trust, but I’ve get more trust in a random person on the street than the government. Also you need enough diversity in the network to cover most needs

@BurntJ - Here is the basic truth of the two warring factions. Conservatives play their hand close to the vest and protect the working systems that are already in place and have been for many, many decades. Liberals on the other hand a typically egomaniacs and they show their hole card without even knowing. In other words, the current democratic party is in a particularly intoxicating position due to the large number of radical left-wingers they have allowed to have a voice - a public voice. It's like an iceberg, what you see in only the tip. Underneath the water is a leviathan that is slowly beginning to rise up and show itself.

Their hubris and savage arrogance is taking over what little restraint they have left. Their getting drunk on the blood of anarchy.

Soon we will see a full-frontal assault on the most valued aspects of our constitutional rights. They are assaulting them right now, but they are like rats - only nibbling. But once the blood gets on their lips and tongues they will not be able to pace themselves any longer. You will see brazen displays of socialism and the naked promotion of police state tactics. In addition, radical legislation will be introduced daily. Unless the Republican party gets galvanized and is ready to literally fight for this country, you will see an erosion of free speech, right to bear arms, taxation without representation and a restriction of many forms of societies, organizations, clubs and the like that hold conservative American values in their hearts.

Now for the good news. Once they have scared the shit out of the GREAT SILENT MAJORITY a true revolution will begin. The democrats will get their asses wiped in the mid-terms which will set the stage for a republican take over of the house, congress and senate. The supreme court is another matter. It can be neutered with deftly crafted legislation. All of these things i have described will happen over the next 18 months. It's going to be quite a show.
