FEDERAL RESERVE FRAUD -- The banksters and politicians colluded to defraud you of the valuable gold and silver coinage you accrued true wealth with. They needed an unending supply of easy money from which to enrich themselves and yield great power over us, while enslaving everyone to their debt notes. To do this, they created a central bank called the Federal Reserve despite that it is not really federal and there are no real applicable reserves. "From the Great Depression, to the stagflation of the '70s, to the burst of the dot.com bubble...every economic downturn suffered by the country over the last 80 years can be traced to Federal Reserve policy" -- that from 'rogue elephant' Congressman Ron Paul, MD (a doctor, not Maryland but Texas). Today, it will be the impending housing bubble burst. Also, the Fed provokes wars and societal decadence. While the colluders spend their false money which can be printed up at will, they bankrupt the nation through continual inflation plus the interest where you pay the final bill of their debt-based currency scheme. The current unconstitutional dollar is nearing collapse as you read this. Visit: dollarcollapse.com (See also the Communist Manefesto - 5th plank)

SOCIAL SECURITY SCAM -- For up to $90k income earners, around 12% of your compensation for labor goes to Social Security including the matching funds coerced out of your employer. Around age 65, you will then be paid back in monthly increments though you may die before getting back the full amount you put in. Regardless, you could have yielded much more for your retirement than what Social Security does return. A bank account with compound interest could return a multiple of the increments paid out to you by Social Security. Spendthrift politicians have other plans and want to intercept and raid you of your retirement money -- the Social Security 'trust fund' is already a pile of I.O.U.s. There is no binding contract for Social Security to provide you with any benefits as congress can change those benefits 'at any time' and they will do so as it heads towards insolvency. Social Security is also an impediment which lessens or denies leaving an inheritance for your family. Some politicians actually think that this retirement Ponzi scheme is a great idea and that it should not be touched. Are you gullible enough to let this continue?

INCOME TAX SWINDLE -- The Communist Manefesto calls for a "heavy...graduated income tax" (2nd plank). The more you earn, the more overly DISPROPORTIONATE a rate of tax you pay. It is so totally warped. The top half of income earners pay about 97% of the federal income tax burden. That's why tax cuts seemingly apply only to "the rich". Taxing this way allows government to take more and more of the nation's top capital for squander instead of letting it go back into the people's economy. This is why capital only trickles down to the lower and middle classes instead of cascading down. And did you know that 1/3 of filers have no income tax liability? The wealthier should pay more, but this is way too skewed.

Note that filing income tax is a method the government uses to spy on your finances and lifestyle. Witholding is how the government borrows money from you interest free (assuming you get a refund) while you pay harsh penalties for missed deadlines and underestimated incomes. The IRS is basically an extortionist operation.

Until we get the political will to cut out all unconstitutional spending or in order to pay off the national debt as we approach a more traditional Uniform Apportionment Tax as the founders intended, we suppport the implementation of the Fair Tax as a stepping-stone alternative. The Fair Tax will eliminate the income tax and replace it with a consumption (sales) tax. It is fair because virtually everyone gets a tax cut, everyone pays the same rate on their consumption and the poor are untaxed as every head of household receives a monthly rebate for taxation on necessities up to the poverty level. Education costs, used items, business-to-business production purchases and savings are untaxed. The economy will expand as foreign capital and business returns to America to take advantage of the new tax haven status. Wages and incomes will increase across the board and government will still receive the same amount of revenue it takes in today (or perhaps more initially, likely so later on).

Remember, the opposition is lying or wrong when they say the Fair Tax will simply put an additional 23% tax on the current retail price of items & services you buy. Actually, checkout prices will remain nearly the same because imbedded costs due to the old income tax will be removed from those items & services. Note those imbedded costs are roughly the same percentage as the 23% (after sale) FairTax. Also, market forces will put a ceiling on those checkout prices because producers know they will not sell as many products and services if prices go substantially higher. So in the end, everyone receives a bigger paycheck after abolishing federal witholding while they pay nearly the same checkout prices. The sales tax rate can eventually be lowered as the national debt is payed off. Much more information at fairtax.org and fairtaxgroups.com . Here is a quick reference:

HEALTH CARE DEBACLE -- Government manipulation of the health care industry has led to higher prices and lower quality. Government puts mandates on health insurance policies for coverage of treatments not necessarily emergencies (infertility, drug rehab, alcoholism, hair pieces, cosmetic surgery, mental health, gynecology, abortion, etc.) . This increases the costs of premiums and encourages the overuse of those treatments that deceptively appear to be at bargain levels. Then Medicare regulations force providers to bill less than cost for treatments and implements a vast bureaucracy to 'monitor' access all while Medicare frequently denies medically advised services to patients causing delay and litigation. In tandem, Medicaid covers health services through governments with low regard to needs and costs (covering illegals, the double insured, treatments charged by scalpers, etc.) . The program suffers vast fraud and mismanagement -- a major bankrupting issue in state budgets that is emerging. The income tax takes its toll by channeling health insurance through employers since independent individual policies and health costs are not adequately tax deductible, but such costs are deductible to employers. So with the aforementioned government mandates on policies, more & more employers are squeezed out of affordable health insurance plans, while others offer more extravagant plans in lieu of income taxable wages which puts more strain on overall premium costs. Then overzealous malpractice suits are causing malpractice insurance to be so high that doctors begin leaving their practice or profession. This is not to mention HMOs which were basically established by government in an attempt to control costs which government had increased. Here the population is herded into the stringent and absurd regulations of HMO providers. Because of all the above, consider too the possibility that smaller practices and insurers may be gobbled up into larger co-ops or corporations which furnishes you with less choice, less personable care and higher prices due to the lack of competition and perhaps the increased bureaucracy of the larger firms. Add to this the myriad of other impeding regulations on health care and you understand the supply and demand imbalance that is making it more expensive and inaccessible. Is it any wonder why a hospital would charge $50 for a Band-Aid in order to cover the money lost to government manipulations in other areas?

The US Government spends a quarter of the budget on health care which totals greater than $600 billion. Around half of the money transacted in health care today is government money. How will all that massive government money sloshing around encourage lower prices or eliminate middlemen? What is all this money and overregulation for? Perhaps it is to make the U.S. health care system more like the government run systems in Great Britain, Canada and Europe. Accordingly, their systems are less in quality and accessibility. Canadians, for example, cross the border to pay for American health care as opposed to using the strained & delayed public Canadian system. Here at home, despite all the public funding, government manipulation of health care has not improved it but is moving it more towards an inaccessible basket case. Resist the health care communes -- do not let government get between you and your doctor!

EDUCATION MISMANAGEMENT -- Has the arrogant school board pissed you off yet? Have you finally noticed that they ask for more and more money but the schools only get worse and worse? Heard of funds not going where they should, test scores dropping or misreported? Concerned about D.A.R.E. indoctrinated kids being dosed with Ritalin (similar to cocaine) to curb the rising tide of above average ambition? Why get bussed across town for integrated schools and then create virtually all black colleges? The educrats and education unions resist competition, choice and innovation while imposing their archaic methods to keep the status quo. So parents are now opting for private schools, vouchers, home schooling or charter schools to escape. Again, undue government control leads to massive failure and the more government controls education the worse it will be. Private schools fare better and are on national average less expensive -- by par the tax dollars allocated towards each public school student exceeds private dollars to educate each private student.

AND BY THE WAY..... Forget about regulating emissions for global warming. It is more reasonable that we are heading into another Ice Age. See: iceagenow.com

Any sales tax on the whole price of a gallon of gas is a double tax since you are paying a tax on those embedded taxes! And just how will new windfall taxes on oil companies' profits help make gas prices more affordable for the consumer?

A lot of the oil acquired by our private oil companies has to be bought off the world market. Foreign state-owned oil companies manage/control/own near 80-90% of the world's oil. These subsidized state-run companies are able to out bid or even impede our private oil companies for access to worldwide oil. On top of that, the nationalized oil companies' inherent inefficiencies and their geopolitics make getting & refining oil more difficult, further adding to the cost for the rest of us. Since all this is the case, then governments are obviously the big gas gougers. Really Big Oil

Take into account that India and China are now vying for the world supply of oil which raises prices. Add to that the environmental regulations that have different refining formulas for different places and different times of year (summer and winter blend). And we are getting no new refineries nor will the politicians allow for new drilling in America!

Now if you are of the opinion that the oil companies are toying with us, consider that the Peak Oil theory may actually be a myth spurred on by the oil companies in order to justify higher prices. Yet in actuality there is a vast supply of abiotic oil which would render perpetual cheap energy prices and our energy independence. Check out the book: Black Gold Stranglehold

UPDATE: Are the private oil companies mere pawns for the manipulators? Who makes the remaining money off a gallon of gas? View this 75 minute video to find out. You will be shocked and dismayed. This angle combined with the above on oil should give you a good picture of what is going on.

Iraqis have more ballot choice than you do. This is an outrage!! Our ballots should immediately be open to real competition -- not closed to independents and third parties nor skewed by canned debates. The taxpayer campaign funding of Republicans and Democrats should immediately cease for this would be real campaign finance reform. Only then can the 'royal' career politicians be ousted and our government returned to citizen rule. This is much better than what the career politicians should get -- for they deserve the guillotine for denying our right to free elections, falsifying the securities of the United States and compromising the national security of the people.

We will triumph over them, for they have lost the mandate of heaven by their corruption.
