“What Really Burns Me” “Death and taxes”

DEATH AND TAXES

As a child growing up in this great country I was beguiled and bewildered while learning about the history of this great land and understanding how great America was.

I was amazed at her beauty and proud to be a member of a great nation that was given its freedoms by God and  Happy to know that all of those freedoms were equal amongst everyone and revered worldwide.

Until my father told me that nothing is guaranteed in life especially in America except death and taxes.

As time went on I come to realize that I was born into this type of life, where your taxes are being taken out of your pay by a government who claims that it’s necessary to keep the government functioning. Boy was I in for a big surprise when I found out that that was not the truth.

You see up until the early 1900s there was no such thing as an income tax. all of America’s governmental wealth was achieved by tariffs. All of the government’s income was brought in by those tariffs. And every other government worldwide did the same.

We had to pay tariffs to ship our products that we made in abundance here at that time to other countries so we did the same to other countries when they sent us their products. Everybody charged each other tariffs there were no taxes on the population’s income, at least not here.

What people fail to remember is we left England and Europe because of taxation because of the necessity for freedom of religion and for freedom overall. We even had conflict over Taxes right here in America. Remember the Boston tea party. I’m sure you Gen-xers will remember being taught about the Boston tea party and that it was fought over a measly 2%. We said they are not going to take our money and they are not going to raise our taxes on tea, which was a daily staple in our lives.

I believe that the so-called conspiracy theory that the banks and the government wanted to take the population push them into poverty by taxing them for everything they earn.

And if that wasn’t enough texting us on what we heard they decide to text every single thing that you buy sell appropriate or imagine.

That’s right I said imagine I’m sure you’ve heard of a thing called unrealized gains.

You know where they tax you this year for what they think you’re going to make next year and even if your business fails or you don’t make that much it doesn’t matter you’re still going to pay taxes on it a year in advance. And now you got to pay taxes to die and be put in the ground.

The supreme Court ruled at one time that taxation on income was illegal and it was against the Constitution and that taxes were only to be appropriated during wartime.

So the government and all of its wisdom decided that that was the only way to get money from us legally they were put us into war for the next 85 years  look at it however you want, but have we not been in some sort of conflict somewhere in the world continuously for the last 85 years.

And if that is not enough proof how about this there was never a written law stating that you were required pay any income tax.

Income tax was started during war time and being good Americans we allowed it to help supplement the war effort but they just kept feeding us the same line that it was helping the war effort because we were in a war somewhere in the world all the time like good little sheep.

Love him or hate him Donald j Trump is initiating tariffs again trying to reduce our burden as citizens to keep the government functioning with our money It is not a new tax on us we are not being taxed and yes the price will go up temporarily until everything settles into place and the other countries reduce the tariffs that we have to pay on they’re goods. That’s good trade practice no matter how you look at it.

Just think of the old analogy how many times can you tax a dollar did you know that $1 is taxed beyond its actual value $1 is  taxed approximately $1.17 cents which means you owe the government on every dollar 17 cents above the actual taxes.

And that’s what DOGE is trying to do by stopping the government from spending all of our money on frivolous bull crap.

It would be a different story if the government took our tax money and spent that on things that we could use here in our own country or for each individual but because of all the money that they’ve spent and put us 36 trillion dollars in debt instead of having some sort of prosperity we are born with hundreds of thousands of dollars of debt in this country.

So let’s stop screaming about Doge and President Trump trying to make it all makes sense by making what taxes we do pay mean something and go for something that we need.

Unless of course you enjoy spending 23 to 28% of your earnings to the government and for some of us who have businesses of our own upwards of 58% in taxes

So I guess what really burns me this time isn’t so much The taxes themselves it’s all the people crying and complaining that this administration is trying to stop that stuff from happening.

Donald Trump said he was going to try to get rid of income tax completely I truly hope he does

This is “What really burns me”
