I agree completely with this article. It is FACT. My dilemma is that I never agreed to any of this. If I stop paying the federal mafia's vigorish, however, they will try to take everything that I have, literally at the point of a gun held by federal agents and possibly even throw me in prison (as a political prisoner -- although the U.S. denies there are political prisoners here), keeping me incarcerated by using part of the wealth of other Americans whose income is also being robbed.

It is a system (income taxation) that must be overthrown.

If I agree to turn over to someone a certain percentage of my income and also agree that the same person gets to set the percentage -- how much of my money does that person control? The answer, of course, is that he controls all of it. Anything he lets me keep based on an arrangement like that is simply a favor. Once I've made the agreement I have ceded to him the right to take whatever percent of my money he wants. The income tax is a system under which we have ceded to the government a pre-emptive claim to a certain percentage of our income, and the government sets the percentage. In principle, the government controls all of our money. That is why those in power talk as if they control all of our money -- they do.
