[TAXES on any substance, thing, person, property, et al.....are wrong when the Government collecting them is unable to police itself and balance their own checkbook as we all must do at the end of every lunar cycle. /color]

+100 Tim



No taxes and LESS GOVERNMENT.  ;)


You know, I was told I toed the Libertarian line just an hour or so ago, but now I'm going to have to blow it. (sigh...oh well it was nice while it lasted) No taxes? Talk about an all volunteer military. ::) ;D

Article 1 Sec 2
Clause 3:

Representatives and direct Taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers, which shall be determined by adding to the whole Number of free Persons, including those bound to Service for a Term of Years, and excluding Indians not taxed, three fifths of all other Persons.2 The actual Enumeration shall be made within three Years after the first Meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent Term of ten Years, in such Manner as they shall by Law direct. The Number of Representatives shall not exceed one for every thirty Thousand, but each State shall have at Least one Representative; and until such enumeration shall be made, the State of New Hampshire shall be entitled to chuse three, Massachusetts eight, Rhode-Island and Providence Plantations one, Connecticut five, New-York six, New Jersey four, Pennsylvania eight, Delaware one, Maryland six, Virginia ten, North Carolina five, South Carolina five, and Georgia three.

National sales tax. These idiots MUST be taught to live with in their means.

Article I, Section 8 thru 10 and the 16th Ammendment allow for legal taxes for the common good, etc.......militia, army, navy, etc.....I have no problem with that...

Taxes to line the pocket of the usurpers of our Constitution are the problem...taxation for the sake of taxation is wrong...

Now, where did I put my Bong?

Graduated income tax is a scam that was specifically opposed in the Federalist Papers.

A funny and ON TOPIC story (lets do the tax debate on another thread because it would be illuminating, but so is the drug one). My landlord in college was a DC cop. He'd come home on his dinner hour, but got an urgent call to come back as an officer had been unresponve for an hour. Found the guy passed out in his patrol car with his windows rolled down, and his Glock dissasembled on the seat as he had been smoking pot out of the barrel with a bit of coffee filter over the end. Told ya' they were versatile! ::)

Talk about barrel fouling. Guess when you run out of pot, you just run a patch down the barrel, roll that up and smoke it.  ;D The solvent would just an extra kick to it.

The ingenuity of druggies never ceases to amaze me. Hand one an empty bottle of Gatorade and the next thing you know, you got a gravity bong. Try to cut off the supply brought in illegally and they'll get just those Topsy-Turvy things and grow it inside their closet.

In all fairness Texan, if it were 1929 outside, how long would it take any of us to have a still rigged up? Hell, how to and recpies would be the main topic on this board, probably overseen by the mostly sweet but not so innocent M'lette. (thus proving my earlier point that the war on drugs is a war on human nature and you ain't gonna win) ;D

FQ will probably have better info on this but I believe that after cultivating grains the next step in civilization was the brewing of beer, even before the invention of the "community". About 6,000 years ago.
