Sad but oh so true.
I too believe the foreign banking elites going back to the late 1800's who were established in Berlin, Paris, etc. who married into UK royalty to control the Bank of London, then worked incessantly to get our Fed created in secret. Why was ANY secrecy necessary leading up to it's 1913 passage when nearly the whole senate was already gone for holiday vacation?? Hell, the Fed was the root cause of the Great Depression. Another fact Govt careerists are loathe to admit.
The Fed is uncontrolled by we citizens or our own Govt - it's shares owned by foreigners and the disgustingly wealthy American socialist elites - it has been inflationary since the git-go for the express reason of financing the wars they would profit so handsomely from and which Wilson promised we would not enter - for w/o WWI, WW2 would never have happened.
Not only did the Fed finance thru inflation our end, but the Rothschild connected/owned/contolled American bankers financed Bismark, Stalin & Hitler as well.
These are the devils, Std Oil/BP/bankers that made the mess in the Middle East before most of us were born which we are paying dearly for now.
I have read enough varied sources (many from the 30's and 40's FDR opposers) that for me this conspiracy for elite rule the world is a foregone conclusion.
Great stuph!
Thanks for the link. I'll be sure to read the report.
YOu would not be an economist, would you?
Sad, is it not?
I'd like to think that the American people are "smarting up" a bit. The fact that Hitlery's approval numbers re: the White House are low leads me to believe they are.
All we gotta do now is somehow, someway smarten up the MSM!
Now, there is an all-day bait!
Thanks, EV. Gotta keep educating these folks!
And, the Joint Committee on Taxation is just as bad.
There has been a movement afoot in Congress on several FRonts for at least three sessions to change FRom static to dynamic scoring in CBO and JTC calculus, but has only received lukewarm response.
Conclusion: They like it the way it is.
Whack SSS with your FReedom stick again, Bigun! He does not yet get that FReedom is one hellofalot more important than economic theory.
Listen carefully, SSS, if you sincerely believe that the tax code should not be used to influence economic decisions, then you have to support the FairTax. The FairTax is neutral with respect to the decisions businesses make, because there will no longer be any business income tax!
And, Marxbites and SSS, if you like the flat income tax, you will love the FairTax!
We will never be a FRee people so long as we have an income tax and an IRS!
I have, for many years now, been employed in a capacity where I come into contact with a great many college age young folks many of whom approach me privately seeking advise on things political. The advice I give is ALWAYS the same. It goes like this:
Outside your local elections, where you personally know the people involved and the lines can sometimes become blurred, never ever vote for a democrat!
They seem to catch on to that rather well.
Of course they do ... that's the old "don't rock the boat" syndrome. It doesn't matter that the "boat" is sinking and they'll go down with it since they believe thay can mandate life preservers for themselves and the rest of us be damned.
But they're wrong. Their present cowardice to change the tax system will ruin the country within our lifetimes.
IRS intrusion into our lives will not decrease with a Flat Tax, if anything we will find them more demanding and more intrusive in assuring the honesty and accuracy of individual and self-employed tax returns as well as the corporate side of the tax system.
BS Econ, MS Tax, JD, SOB, CPA, M-O-U-S-E..........
A finger to the wind would do just as well as static scoring so we might as well use it, as well as the "ceiling method"...where you gaze thoughtfully at the ceiling while stroking your face (or beard if you've got one) and proclaim the answer. LOL.
We've got to start improving our models....it's just not as easy as we'd like it to be....but we must take those first tentative steps...if we're ever going to learn how to run.....we're taking those tentative steps now.
I don't disagree that the UN, WTO, etc are all agencies of redistribution....but we simply must not willingly comply with their plans for us.......
Good for you - I sing the same tunes, if they're leaning Democrat regardless, I'd rather they didn't vote at all.
And I've always thought, having been continously employed since 16, even on college breaks and summers, that if you aren't working/paying taxes, ie contributing & having an actual stake - that they shouldn't be allowed to vote until they learn to give to society more than they take.
I mean, isn't that what we've seen? - those who contribute least have their hands out most, & on our tab to boot?
LBJ's great giveaway to buy the votes his racist So. Dems were losing their party.
What REALLY irks me the most is the opportunity cost to generations of American wealth accumulation, especially among the poorest, of the New Deal, Fair Deal & Great Society. What enormous compounded wealth was lost. It has to a number very much larger than the total dollars these programs were fed - not to mention the strife created by the perverse disincentives.
Indeed that is exactly what we've seen and it is no accident as you so rightly point out. It is time -no! LONG past time - that we, the guys who pay the freight, retake control of our government!
Damn I which I could recall my Latin! Your tag lines are killin me!
That may be but one, the Fairtax is FAR preferable to the other for a multitude of reasons to numerous to list here.
Retaining anything with the word "Income" in its description is plainly unexceptable as anyone with a screen name like yours should know.
