Their Power With Your Money

By LSG III

Reverend Jonathan Mayhew’s demand of, ”No taxation without representation”, provided Americans granite resolve to violently reject taxes from a despicable government oppressively working against the citizens’ interests. He knew prohibitive taxation was a crime on his country. Two hundred years later Americans have forgotten the lessons of those that bled and died for to remove a deplorable government. Today, the American government benefits special interests as a goliath of taxation and spending greater than anything the world has ever witnessed at the expense of its people.

Americans will labor until April 30 this year for nothing more than sustaining government spending. Corporate welfare, military redundancy, senseless subsidies, and failed programs will maintain a parasitic grip on our hard work. Democrats nor Republicans will cut scandalous spending in areas which reward special interests that keep them in power. It would be more appropriate to require congress to wear NASCAR apparel so we at least know what companies and special interests they actually represent.

Bought politicians jockey for position to spend your money first. The party affiliation matters not. Randall Cunningham (14 years U.S. Congress) had an actual menu with prices per illegal favor. William J. Jefferson (14 years U.S. Congress) was caught red handed with over $90,000 cash in his freezer and remains in the U.S. Congress to this day. The seniority system in Congress rewards those regions that are willing to permanently crown their representatives regardless of how dastardly they have conducted themselves. Teddy Kennedy’s (43 years in the Senate) exploits continue to remain ignored by the people of Massachusetts. In turn he rewarded his cronies with a massive fiasco known as “The Big Dig”. “The Big Dig” is the most expensive highway project in American history was fraught with corrupt contractors who contributed heavily to Teddy. It was supposed to cost $2.6 Billion; instead it has cost $14.6 Billion and is still racking up more of our hard earned dollars after being 5 years beyond its proposed completion date. Senators Ted Stevens (39 years in the Senate) and Daniel Inouye (44 years in the Senate) of Alaska and Hawaii are nearly the top two states in pork spending every year although their populations are a minute segment of America. Narcissistic “leaders” and the special interests put themselves above the people. When will the true Americans stand up for themselves?

The money the U.S. Government spends is your money! They are supposed to be representing your best interests. Who among us actually believes our Senators and Congresspersons are looking out for us? Do you work a third of your time to have your money employed in a manner that is counter productive to your pursuit of happiness? Are you being taxed without receiving honest representation? Our Government will spend and waste even more of our money next year. The trend will continue until America collapses; that is the history of Democracies which we need to overcome.

There is a real, courageous, and just alternative. Americans can stand up and take their government and livelihoods back in one bold move. Destroying the current tax system and replacing it with a fair tax would remove our politicians’ extortion abilities. Making income and employment tax obsolete in favor of an all inclusive consumption tax would end the Teddy Kennedy, Randy Cunningham, William J. Jefferson, Daniel Inouye, Ted Stevens, and your representatives current pay for power system.

• Kill employment tax; the most regressive and escalating tax we have been forced to endure
• Kill corporate income tax which will vanquish enormous amounts of special interests
• Increase the tax base from a portion of income to all consumption
• Eliminate the obtrusive I.R.S. and its malignant nature.
• Save Americans and American businesses enormous amounts of time and money wasted on dealing with a ridiculous tax code.
• Make America the #1 tax haven for ALL businesses. 

The rich spend and consume more and will pay more. The poor would be provided with a credit prior up front to protect those below the poverty line. The tax base would be much greater and the corruption would be crushed. Favored constituencies would lose their grip on our elected officials. A Fair Tax solution will never be proposed by the Democrats or Republicans. It would destroy their strangle hold on power and the contemptible pork, waste, and corruption which they currently revel in. Amending the constitution through the state process is the solution. Expect the current power structure to oppose it with every fiber in their soulless beings.

Do not fear the big idea… fear the status quo.
