just can't win man

Possibly. Stealing is taking someone else's property, without their permission.

Now that I think about it, isn't that too short for corruption and weapons traffiking?

Are you stealing the candy bar?

hello

Yo

If you don't like taxes move to Mars and start a new country.

Just found out about the Leland Yee dude the other day when watching one of Mat Best's videos.

People are too stupid to not have taxes even though we don't need taxes if we killed off govt services and made them private or just axe them

Wat up @Braydon

I agree the income tax is theft. However, sales tax isn't. One is applied to your labor, it's either theft or you are a slave. The other is applied to the product or object.

Have a good evening

If you set yourself a goal in cooking, it can be fun. Like getting the noodles right, making sure gravy is finely stirred, and the ham is steamed completely through.

You know we can leave the taxes as they are, shutdown the government for 5 years and we would have all the debt paid off.

Those things are goals that I can set for myself, making sure I know if I am progressing or not.

Got to make things fun.

Neither are tarriffs, because, again, they are not applied to a person or that person's labor.

@stedly not exactly cuz we print money still without govt

@Paradox Ok, as long as we agree that when the gov't places a sales tax on a particular class of items the ability for the gov't to enforce the collection and thereby the payment of that tax is backed by the gov'ts ability to use force .

Pro tipp for Americans:
Register as Democrat and vote for Tulsi

The greatest thing is having people think your food is good.

So, not all taxes are theft or taken by force.

Priv company in charge of money printing.

@Graylan | gray00 good point. Raid the federal reserve, confiscate all printing machines

@Paradox I don't see how the gov't could compel the store owner to collect the tax without the ultimate use of force.

@stedly it's mainly clicks of a mouse

Sure, the government is authorized to use force.

However, you aren't dealing with the governemnt in the case of the candy bar, you are dealing with the store.

I like how Dems are so quick to assume a Republican is guilty whenever he/she (mostly he) is accused of some kind of crime and they are willing to sack him with little evidence, but when someone comes forward with evidence implicating one of their own is involved in some kind of horrendous crime, they try to hide behind innocent until proven guilty and discredit the accuser.

I'm still with you on that though tho @stedly

It's a valid point

I just think the fed will.still fuck that up too

@Graylan | gray00 washington DC is it's own soverign state. We could potentially invade it, plant the American flag and force them to actually abide by us laws not by DC laws.

Lmao

Good idea

Let's do it. :)

Fuck dc
