Avoiding a highly illegal and unconstitutional income tax to avoid giving their money to Shaniqua Jackson so she can have more welfare babies. So they can use it to reinvest in their business and employees and their brave investors who risked their $$$ to help them out. God bless them, true American patriots! We should all be so smart. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 2771636 What do they expect us all to do - go and take all this "money" somehow? No, we can't get that money. We need to be prepared, though, for the sudden realization that our total economic system has failed. Soon, friends, soon enough we'll be more than economically enslaved to the corporations and the elite that run them. |
