This post will stay on top through July 4, 2005. Between now and then, I plan on pointing out several issues in today’s society that this document seems to address… The first one I’ll simply issue as a question, here. (Other updates will intervene here as I post them.)
4.) “,,,For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent… “
“For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury… “
Now, here the electorate (that’s you and me) can accept full blame for “taxation without representation” for we have allowed the shysters, thieves, poltroons and mountebanks that comprise the overwhelming majority of congresscritters to tax us indirectly without our informed consent. It is our (as the citizenry as a whole) laziness, greed and poor citizenship that has allowed our congresscritters to get away with it.
You don’t want to pay your own taxes AND the taxes of every single business you buy from? Fine. Let it be known to your congresscritters. Campaign for someone who will work for honesty and transparency in taxation.
As for the followup to the taxation issue (denial of trial by jury), well, citation of just one “rule” is enough to prove the case:
There are no Tax Court juries.
Now, that’s an abomination.
3.) “…He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance…”
I was going to list agencies that “eat out [our] substance” and “harass our people” here, but when the list of such grew to over 1,000, I figured it’d be far too long to read…
2.) “…He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us…”
Let me simply and easily falsify the idea that the Federal Government we have is heir to the Founders with three minimal citations of murder and abduction by Federal government officials:
Ruby Ridge
Waco
Elian Gonzalez
Until those responsible for these acts—and their minions, such as Lon Horiuchi—have been brought to justice, it stands as demonstrable that the Federal government “…has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of its Protection and waging War against us…”
1.) Where, among today’s congresscritters, could 56 people be found who understand and could honestly echo these words?
“ And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence , we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor .”
“Sacred Honor” among the thieves, poltroons and mountebanks largely populating today’s Congress? Finding such would be a daunting task indeed, on the order of Lot’s serach for three good men in Sodom and Gomorrah or Diogenes’ search for an honest man…
