    The best slave to own is the one that denies they are enslaved. End the FED. The GOAT DJT is building a parallel economy to replace them. That’s why they try to lawfare him in everything. The writing is on the wall. Gold will destroy the FED.
    Unleashing our energy , tariffs to level the playing field , cut Govt embezelment. End needless regulation, bring back manufacturing. 50+ years of killing our economy by 1,000,000,000.cuts is over.

    Love this collection, OUC! Thank you! Hmmmm, never thought of #2, but there it is, LOL! At this point it may as well be Strait of America. Uh, #11 may be unconstitutional because forcing anyone to watch The View would definitely qualify as cruel and unusual punishment.

    Your rate is ~30-35%. Capital gains is 25%. The barrier to getting to where you can just subsist off your investments is high!
    Flat rate, and NO deductions would be minimally fair, and end this.

    Each and every individual is urged to join or support their local Militia. All states in the Union should have a state wide "unorganized Constitutional Militia" (US Code Title 10). They are a serious threat to political control, corruption, taxation, inflation, cartels, war, — in fact, all tyrannies.

    Having diverse ideas and the freedom to act on them will tell what action or behavior is the best. A government having the 'right' to use violence to enforce diverse ideas and compell diverse behavior is a disaster. Let people choose. Liberty does not guarantee mistakes, it makes the possibilty of adaptation when reality is discovered.

    The power to tax is the power to destroy. Unfornutately this has been interpreted to mean the populace must excersise control over the taxing oligarchy to ensure a fair tax. The idea to prevent the federal government from taxing the people is that it prevents the destruction of the people. Giving an uncontrollable entity the power to do something ensures it will and you will never control it. Eliminate the Federal Reserve and the power to tax directly by the federal government or remain enslaved.

    Politics has become a mechanism of division instead of a means to promote or maintain state and federal respect for the Constitution and individual rights.

    The constitutional republic was severly wounded when the free market was replaced with a violation of the constitution with the replacement of value based coin with an instutuional monoply bank. It was dead with the passage of the Act of 1871. There is only the belief that we are free because we can vote for the enfranchisement of power by the federal government and what tyrant is currently in power. America does not move toward free agency and liberty. It constantly moves away from while believing the lie that it has something it doesn't.

    Yes! . . . because of democracy, the United States is already transitioning into an oligarchy. And thanks to globalists, their agendas have already infiltrated every state in the Union for implementation.

    And yet so many politicians speak of democracy as if it were a good thing. To many of us do not realize that a democracy is where a majority can take anything it wants at the expense of a minority :-( Our education system is failing!

    . . . and Income tax is unconstitutional!

    I've required assistance with my taxes about 4 times in 60 years. My biggest surprise was when I cashed out my investment accounts and discovered the 20% the IRS skimmed from the top wasn't enough to cover my total tax burden for that year.

    Now that I'm retired, I've put my withholding under control, to ensure a minimal return, which leaves me with more to spend throughout the year. My only tax bill is my state income tax, and that's manageable.

    I've rarely ever fretted over taxes. Maybe it's because I'm NOT wealthy.

    This is about a reason~~ka-ching!~~why this is my least favorite time of the year despite having a birthday and relatives to take me to a restaurant to cheer me up for a day or two.
    Now getting past a certain date in April does make me feel poorer yet like a happier dog freed of its leash.

    I believe, that protection is gone.
    We are enslaved with income tax (a level that is higher than what slaves would pay back to their owners when they went to work for someone else. Back then, they returned 10%)
    When a government DECIDES what % of YOUR work you get to keep. You are enslaved.

    Income tax is slavery!

    You found what many have found...
    You are NOT wealthy enough to hire the Accountants, Lawyers, and build the tax shelters you need.
    Somewhere between $500K and $2 Million/yr... It's a no mans land... BY DESIGN.

    Unless you can consistently make the high end of that range, you will find it almost impossible to break through it.
    The taxes below that eat you alive, as you end up in the highest tax brackets. Also, it's far worse if it is WORK Income.
    Passive income can be far better.

    When you get to $2 million/yr consistently, you can afford the annual expenses of the team to help you rework your income.
    In effect, you get to the point that you can afford to spend $500K on those guys, etc. In lieu of spending that $500K on taxes.

    That's why the wall is where it is. If you only make $500K, you cannot possible afford to maintain the setup.
    So, you get slaughtered. It's changed now, thanks to Trump. But back in the day, you hit a nominal tax rate of 50.5%
    of every dollar you make (or 39% + 15% = 54% IF you do Corp + Dividends).

    That 15% is the Long Term Capital Gains tax rate. I consider it my job to maximize that income.
    This is also why people like musk want stock, stock options... In lieu of ANY salary.
    Finally, it's also why they BORROW money against their assets to fund their lives (it's not taxed).
    But once again, YOU can't do that until your assets >>>> your annual needs.
    When your assets are 1,000 times your annual needs. You can borrow 10 years of money, against 10% of your wealth.
    And get a near zero interest rate (over collateralized loan). In 10 years, you refinance it into another loan, on much larger assets.
    Eventually, you will pay it off. But everything you sell is only taxed at 15%...

    Yes... We PUNISH hard work with PUNATIVE taxation.
    We make ESCAPE Velocity very expensive. Basically impossible for the "working class", and the solo-preneur

    Posted by $ Olduglycarl 15 hours, 47 minutes ago to THE DISASTER CYCLE:: Now HERE is the Science (still, in general)
    Recently a science paper reported by Ben states the possibility that due to weak magnetic shields and crazy cosmic radiation the melting didn't take long at all but we'll have to hang around long enough to find out for sure!
    Ben has listed from time to time the actual length and timeline of each of the documented epochs.
    I just found one and will DM you. I think we can post photos on DMs . . .I'll find out.
