With
those words, I am now a domestic terrorist or insurrectionist and I
should expect to get this blog cancelled. I might now find myself on a
no-fly list or some agents knock on my door. It could happen, but I am
ready to "bug out" and I don't necessarily have to fly ( I have my
Residence Permit for Mexico already stamped in my passport). But the only way to tame the Federal Beast is to defund it and return power to The States and to the people. Here's how:
Step 1: Repeal 1913 Income Tax and Federal Reserve Acts
Repeal the Income Tax Act of 1913 (See my post
"1913 Income Tax Starts at 1%" from 2013): The Income Tax started in
1913 with nearly everyone not paying anything except for the very, very
wealthy. The top rate was 7% for those making $13 million (in today's
dollars). The 1% bracket applied to incomes up to $500,000 (in today's
dollars). The Standard deduction was $75,000 in today's money. Sounds
sensible.
But just four years later the top tax rate was 77% and funded and enabled our participation in World War I. The top tax rate basically remained at 70% until the JFK Jr administration and then much lower under Ronald Reagan.
AND... Repeal the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.
The Federal Reserve is neither Federal or a Reserve bank. It was a
private bank that served the government and politicians. It still does!
It was a disaster from the very beginning.
The
Federal Reserve was created to maintain "price stability" and
"economic growth." What a joke! Prices went up 110% from 1913 to 1921
alone! It funded the United State's first World War. You can correctly
say that the Federal Reserve is responsible for our bloated and
war-loving government. It is and always was an evil force. Now the US government is evil.
Step 2: Secession
States
and/or groups of States must seceed from the Union and cancel the Federal
Income tax collection or halt the transfer of income tax money to
Washington. Once one state like Texas seceeds, many others would likely
join in short order. Starving the Federal Government of tax money from even a state like Texas would cause the US government bond market to crash. WITH NO FEDERAL RESERVE TO "PRINT" AND FUND THE GOVERMENT, the Federal Government is instantly in a crisis.
Remember, Texas is 1/10th of the US in population. When Arkansas and
Oklahoma joins Texas and do the same thing, then it's game over for the
Federal Bureaucracy. Entire regions could seceed and join forces.
The
seceeded entities could negotiate a deal with the Federal Government to
continue to send FICA deducted monies to Washington to fund retirees (Social Security and Medicare).
But even this would expose the completely phony meme of the "Social
Security lockbox." Social security COULD NOT AND WOULD NOT BE PAID once
the US goverment had dramatically reduced revenues. THERE IS NO LOCKBOX
OF "FUNDS." It's pay-as-you-go arrangement. There is no money in an
account with your name on it.
Alternate: Do nothing and risk Nuclear Annihilation
This
method is to let our current crop of Bosheviks, the most arrogant AND
ignorant people in the entire world, to CONTINUE to foment war with
Russia to the extent that Russia must destroy the West (the EU and/or
the USA) with nuclear weapons See my posts PCR: US Neoconservatives Are Setting Up the World for Nuclear War and The West AGAIN Ignoring Russia's Warning After Warning.
Spot on assessment. This country doesn't deserve to exist in its current incarnation.
ReplyDeleteDoug, the problem is the classic in game theory...Prisone’s Dilemma. Who defects first? What are the incentives for every red state to defect together? Do politicians have the stones to not only secede, but to build a side by side economy and security system to coexist? When I read Kurt Schlichter’s novels, it all seems so easy. It actually isn’t as hard as some postulate, but I think there are few politicians with the backbone to see it through. Overturning Roe took 50 years! And that isn’t open for debate. But the scotus effed away opportunities for years. So, the question is: can we generate enough conservative, America First patriots in less than a generation who will create this engine of change?
