ALEXANDER HAMILTON: TAXAHOLIC! Dec 27, 2016

Commenting on the decline of true liberalism, libertarian giant Ralph Raico wrote the following shortly before he recently passed away, “In America, the liberal country par excellence, the chief aim [of classical liberals] was to fend off incursions of government power pushed by Alexander Hamilton and his centralizing successors…” Profound and deleterious consequences of the actions of that damn taxaholic continue to haunt Americans to this day. As America’s first Secretary of the Treasury, Hamilton’s policy of taxing whiskey sparked the so-called Whiskey Rebellion. “The tax was resisted by farmers in the western frontier regions who were long accustomed to...

YOUR SCREWED! FOLLOW THE MONEY! Nov 21, 2016

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT INCOME TAXATION I first want to declare that I don’t believe in the Constitution. I am with Lysander Spooner on that score. It confers no legitimate authority on the federal government. Furthermore, many of its intended (or pretended) benefits have been lost to congressional encroachment and courts’ misinterpretations. Nevertheless, it is still regarded as “the supreme law of the land,” by most Americans, with adoring lip service paid to it by virtually every lawyer and politician. Nor do I believe taxation is ever legit. It is extortion. No individual has a rightful authority to...

IRWIN SCHIFF AND WIKI DECEPTION Oct 6, 2016

The following is an excerpt from a conversation I’ve been having with a tax lawyer/CPA regarding the Wikipedia “article” on a famous tax protester and libertarian, Irwin Schiff. Here is the Schiff article: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irwin_Schiff) When I tried as a Wiki editor to add some insight from my personal knowledge of Irwin to the Schiff article, a tax lawyer-CPA who goes by the name of Famspear on the Web and is also a prolific Wiki editor objected to my edit for not conforming to Wikipedia’s rules for creating and editing articles. When such disagreements occur between two editors, a “User talk...

Germans 13:1-7 Jan 2, 2016

GERMANS 13:1-7 My dear Jewish brothers and sisters, Let every person be subject to Hitler and the governing Nazi authorities; for there is no authority except from God, and the Nazi authorities that exist have been instituted by God. Whoever resists Nazi authority resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For the Nazi rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you wish to have no fear of the Nazi authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive the Nazi's approval, for Hitler is God’s servant for your good....

TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT Jul 11, 2015

I heard a lot of noise and looked over at the stove where a red tea kettle appeared to be fiercely boiling such that I feared it would explode. I ran to shut off the burner, but no burner was lit. I lifted the top off the kettle thinking to release the pressure. Peering inside I was amazed to see a gaggle of very little people screaming and shouting and hurling invectives and anything handy at each other. It wasn’t hard to discern even amidst all that turmoil that the little combatants were arguing and fighting over the matter of...

MATTHEW 17: A FISHY TALE! May 26, 2015

If I had the time, I could cite literally dozens of recognized Christian scholars who have said Jesus paid taxes, pointing to the Gospel of Matthew, Ch. 17, verses 24-27, and the remarkable events recounted therein as proof. Here is the text of that passage from the King James Version of the Bible. And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received tribute money came to Peter, and said, Doth not your master pay tribute? He saith, Yes. And when he was come into the house, Jesus prevented him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? of whom do the kings...

ROMANS 13: A FLIMSY REED May 5, 2015

Let every person be subject to the governing authorities; for there is no authority except from God, and those authorities that exist have been instituted by God. Therefore whoever resists authority resists what God has appointed, and those who resist will incur judgment. For rulers are not a terror to good conduct, but to bad. Do you wish to have no fear of the authority? Then do what is good, and you will receive its approval; for it is God’s servant for your good. But if you do what is wrong, you should be afraid, for the authority[ does not...

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS OF NAZARETH Mar 11, 2015

THE GOSPEL OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO NED (Subtitle: Jesus onTaxes and Tax Collectors) by Ned Netterville This is a condensation of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke (the so-called synoptic gospels) focusing on what Jesus said or did pertinent to taxes and tax collectors. The author has added some material where understanding requires elaboration that is missing from the Gospels. Ned’s reconstructed material logically follows from the character of Jesus as fully developed in all four Gospels. Why focus on taxes and those who collect them? Because Jesus clearly did. The words “tax(es)” and/or “tax collector(s)”...

THE GOOD SAMARITAN Feb 27, 2015

Jesus’ Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) is often pointed to by progressives as justification for government social-welfare programs and spending. Of course Jesus’ Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) used his own resources exclusively to succor the poor stranger he found beaten and robbed and left to die along the road from Jerusalem to Jericho. Rather than supporting government programs, the Parable speaks volumes against them and their dishonest and dishonorable methodology. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii and gave them...
