You think the income tax laws are convoluted?

Govt by obscurity ends in convolution: Walk with me a moment..

We have been born and raised and indoctrinated
into a society where it is subconsciously
accepted that laws and taxes are too difficult
for a normal citizen to understand.

You just know that, and you just accept it as
the way it is.

If anyone can step back enough to see the
forest, you will find that it makes no sense
that we have to hire someone to make sense of
these things.

It is wrong that you can not receive justice
unless you have someone to interpret law and
represent you. It makes no sense that no person
really knows the tax laws that directly effect
them.

The simple reason for these things is a system
that can be twisted for profit and hid in the
mounds of legislation with names like "American
Recovery" and the like where thousands of pages
of legalese make it impossible for anyone but
the people colluding to even have a clue of
what is IN the bills.

Call me one of those weirdos, tin foil hats,
whatever. I ask you. Do you really know what
you owe in taxes? Are you sure? Can someone
knock on your door today and make you to move?
Are you sure?

These are the easy ones.

If you can't answer those questions yes or no,
I have made my point.; Posted by: supercharlie Posted on: 04/22/09 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
