Tax money=political power. It is the diesel fuel that keep politics going. The whole process is sickening. I just completed 2007 taxes for my deceased Mother, I kept thinking "Death and Taxes, Death and Taxes" Even when you're dead and gone, you will pay the TaxMan.

Anyone hear that Wesley Snipes is the latest one to go down for believing in the "There is No Law that Requires Payment of Income Taxes" illusion? How'd that work for ya, Wes?

There is no reason on God's greed Earth that paying your taxes should be this traumatic. I'm big on flat tax pay 10-12% on what you clear and be done with it. Everyone , no exception. Our Government behaves like a teenager with Mom's credit card. Spend the max then go get more. Well, the stone is about bled out in this country. They're gonna have a bitch of a time locking us all up

A not so funny topic. Locally there has been an info mercial based on some sort of political slant. Ron Paul was in alot of the clips. The activist point was that as Americans, we do not have to pay taxes. The infomecial claim is there is no law that says we have to pay taxes. They interviewed ex judges, congressman, etc. and they kpt saying the same thing. "Show me the law that says you have to pay taxes."
Not that I advocate this kind of thing, it was rather interesting.
