Question - will they tap “any” refund? Like where certain folks get more back than they ever paid in?

I know someone who is stockpiling large amounts of silver.. May be the only thing which can buy a loaf of bread. Gold is nice, but pricey.. “God, Gold and Guns”

Will all of the "31 million," now uninsured, be "insured" if they don't buy health insurance?

Am I going nuts, or is it our government that's gone nuts?

Tired of the Chicago politics of holding people hostage through threats! This is how the health care bill was passed. It’s brute thuggery.

If everyone claimed exemption from withholding, self employed did not pay their quarterly, and nobody filed a 1040, what would the IRS do? Arrest the whole country?

In other words, hold all of us for ransome? What the heck are they doing now?

For 130+ years, the federal government ran solely on income from tarifs and other minor forms of taxations (none of which were directly on citizens.)

What happened?

They will eventually need to ramp up the threats/penalties, but so far they have not hit on a punitive/effective set of rules.

Harry Reid told Greta last night that people aren't going to cheat on health care. NO, he really said that!

So now our tyrants are going to force the issue by taking money rightfully ours? This is AMERICA?

Are we living in AMERICA?

Is it true that the health care bill has now given the government the right, at any time it choses, to look into our personal bank accounts...saving, checking, etc., and MOVE our money out if it determines we owe something? Without a court order or without notice or without discussion or even a court date? With NO DEFENSE? Are our bank accounts now like a social security number and OWNED BY THE STATE or FEDERAL GOVERNMENT?

WHAT IN THE HELL IS GOING DOWN HERE?

I hope I am wrong.

My withholdings are already set that they don’t get to keep my money all year intereste free.

“When you see that trading is done, not by consent, but by compulsion — when you see that in order to produce, you need to obtain permission from men who produce nothing — when you see money flowing to those who deal, not in goods, but in favors — when you see that men get richer by graft and pull than by work, and your laws don’t protect you against them, but protect them against you — when you see corruption being rewarded and honesty becoming a self-sacrifice — you may know that your society is doomed.”

According to Boortz, you cannot be put in jail for not paying taxes.
You CAN be jailed for refusing to file.
However, if you don't pay, they will take all the assets that they can get their hands on, but F' em. I still don't have to pay. We don't have debtors prisons.

What happened?,p>Thanks for the history lesson! What happened? A piece of legislation called the Progressive Income Tax. The name Progressive is thought by many to mean that the more you earn the higher percentage you pay. However, history also tells us that progressive is the name of the movement that brought this monstrosity to us.

Progressives, liberals, socialists, Marxists..... All paths lead to h3ll.

I hate ta tell ya, but they will start withholding for health insurance, just like FICA and FUTA and all the rest. I am confident with this (obvious) prediction.

It’s a good idea anyway not to give them so much, people should do it anyways and always owe.

Won’t matter unfortunately, they will just access your bank accounts and take the penalty.

Might be time to go bankless too. But they can always garnish wages even if your withholding is maxed.

It’s just ridiculous.
