The Only way to stop this Madness is with Economic Individual Freedom , and with this election year coming on fast we the people need to Insist that whoever is running needs to BE FOR A FLAT TAX SYSTEM , then we the people can regain our FREEDOM from this Tyranny !!!!!!
Get this going NOW and watch these CRONY Politicians SQUIRM !!!!!
The Founding Fathers believed that the power to tax was the power to destroy and that the people were not to be taxed directly by the government of the United States and that all taxes needed to be representation in the House of Representation and taxes needed to be apportioned to the states according to their respective populations. This meant that the government could tax the states, but not the people. The government of the United States would obtain from each of the states their proportionate share of the cost of cost of providing for the defense of the nation and for the General Welfare of all of the people. They also believed that Congress would be responsible to control spending and could only allocate money for programs and projects specifically mentioned in Article I Section 8. The House of Representatives was prohibited from spending money that would benefit certain individuals at the expense of the others would be unconstitutional.
Any tax where individuals pay taxes directly to the central government are unconstitutional..For a tax to be Constitutional it must be collected by the states and then each state would be required to forward to the central government their proportionate share of the national budget.
Ok agree , and that would be agreed on by a majority because everyone lives in a state so they would be more in favor of seeing their tax dollars handled in this way . It would stop the cronyism we see that the feds have done with all these stimulus bills that lined the pockets of only their cronies . Let getter done Keith !!!!!!
