I leave tomorrow to go East, so this may be my last post for a few months. I'm sure you'll all weep
"The people that founded this country can support something but not instill it into the foundation of the country. It wasn't in the foundation of our country."
Actually it was. Aside from the mutual regard of our Forefather, the US Supreme court has ruled that the Federalist Papers is to be accepted as the authoritve and definitive interpretation of the Supreme Law of the Land, and therein Madison declared a country which does not tax its citizenry is no more than a province. Taxation is something this country has accepted is as inevitable as government itself, and as little cared for.
"Our country broke away because of taxes, if you remember your history."
Taxation without representation actually, which amounts to little more than large scale piracy.
"Hell, to put it in perspective, it would be like if we broke away from our country because the govt instilled a .60 tax on fast food."
And this would be a perspective of insanity I take it? Or at least unreasonable extremism?
