In many states, state income tax too. While you can deduct what you pay in state taxes from your federal form, you cannot deduct what you pay in federal tax from you state form, so that money is essentially taxed by the state even though you never had use of it and it went to the federal government.

You won’t ever create communal infrastructure without taxes. I can tell you from personal experience. If you have 50 families in a private road and there’s no legal requirement to fund road repairs, you always get 4 or 5 homeowners who refuse to contribute.

Taxes are a painless, efficient way of ensuring that communal facilities are funded in a timely way.

Of course, there is the potential for corruption, but if you think that simply asking Americans to pay up without legal obligation, you have a very poor understanding of human nature.

How do people sing that part of the national anthem where it says “land of the free and the home of the brave” when they have to pay 25% of their income to keep from going to prison?

Do they even realize how dumb they are?

Doesn’t have to be that way AA. Grow a spine and do what’s right in your heart. Don’t finance EVIL.

NO.

I ran into a guy I know from the barber shop down town in the small town we both live outside of, we had a 15 minute conversation. Seems he listened to his doctor and took Paxlovid for Covid. He didn’t know what Ivermectin is…and now is having all kinds of mysterious serious health problems all over his body. Liver, lungs, spine??? Then he shifted the conversation as he has just discovered Q…and asked me about President Trump and I do I think he really is in power behind the scenes?

So I gave him my elevator speech on Kabballah trained LockUSdown/Warp Speed Trump…and he really looked confused.

I didn’t have a clue on where to go next with this easy going, nice, completely clueless guy.

As we were parting he asked me what I thought was happening…I said an ‘engineered collapse’…and closed with: “If you haven’t prepped…start tomorrow”.

Deer in the light look on his face as I walked away.

Without any taxation, you would be the ‘land free of any roads, railroads and Air Traffic Control’, not to mention ‘free of any emergency services, free of any courts of law’ and quite a bit more besides.

If you want to live like First Nation Indians did 300 years ago, transporting their teepees on horseback as they moved through the seasons, go ahead. You won’t have a more complex society than that without any taxes.

The Great Grain Bank Swindle Joseph pulled off in Egypt was the world’s largest scam until 1913.

Some think that banks started out as graineries. And that baker/banker is interchangeable.

I’m Canadian. I’m jealous of them Egyptian slaves. 40% of my gross income go to the provincial and federal governments as income taxes. 15% of my net income go to the provincial and federal governments as sales taxes (higher when I buy gas, which include normal sales taxes, + a special tax “foR RoaD RePaiRs” and now a carbon tax). 3% of my gross income go to the municipal government as property taxes. And every year I pay: 530 for license plates, 90 for driver’s license. I’m sure I’m missing some shit. All that is excluding “green” fees when you buy electronics, or tires, or some other shit, and the fact that the only place I can buy my booze is from the government (a 5 dollar bottle can sell for 20, for example). Yeah, I’m fucking jealous of the Egyptian slaves.

It all went swimmingly in Egypt until the great disasters from earth being within Venus’ tail at the time, let the Hebee Hyksos fool the Egyptians through a grain banking/baking scheme, and they then ran off into the wilderness with all the loot.
They then fabricated the Red Sea crossing and chase to add an element of excitement to the story, but more likely than not, there was nothing in the coffers left to pay troops to give chase.
The Red Sea story is the atomic bomb story of the time. It allowed the Pharaohs to save a little face, because “Hyksos’ god did it” and the Hyksos leadership would convince their new ragtag embezzling army to feel “special” even “chosen”
