We should eliminate the unnecessary Federal Income Tax and just have a consumption (sales) tax

By on • ( 1 Comment )

I heard on the radio earlier this afternoon and stumbled upon this article at Fox…

House Republicans to vote on bill abolishing IRS, eliminating income tax

Personally, I’d say just eliminate and do get rid of the income tax Federally and implement the consumption or national sales tax on consumers.

Let’s keep it simple, we can easily wipe out the fed debt in 25,000 sales transactions, give or take a few sales transactions. They should have the consumption tax across the nation at 4% – and I’m being nice at having the national sales tax / consumption tax at only 4% per transaction.

If we got 385 million (+/-) people in our population in USA…. and they buy $500 worth of stuff = $192.5 billion worth of items.

Taxed at 4% consumption tax = $7.7 billion taxes collected on 1 this transaction only.

If 5,000 transactions happened of that same amount, then there’d be $38.5 trillion in consumption tax revenues collected.

There’d still be some IRS people that would be employed to make sure that this is collected and brought it. But that’s about it, no need for other additional people to look into “income tax” making sure you reported this, etc. etc.

I’d like the simplicity of this, and I’d go for it.

Hey if we eliminate the income tax, then we have more money in our pockets! And we do already have the ability to choose to buy things or not!

I say, this is a win/win.

But of course… the politicians will make it as complicated as much as they can. Just freaking keep it SIMPLE!

“In this world, nothing can be certain except death and taxes” – Benjamin Franklin

58 Years ago today… and one of the greatest speeches I’ve ever heard.

“…the full power of centralized government. THIS was the very thing the Founding Fathers sought to minimize. They knew that governments don’t control things.

A government can’t control the economy without controlling people. And they know when a government sets out to do that it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose…”

“When the government tells you, ‘You’re depressed’. Lie down and be depressed…

…So they’re going to solve all the problems of human misery through government and government planning… well now if government planning and welfare had the answer and they had almost 30 years of it shouldn’t we expect government to read the score to us every once in a while?

Shouldn’t they be telling us about the decline each year and the number of people needing help, the reduction of need for public housing? But the REVERSE is true, each year the need grows greater, the program grows greater. We were told 4 years ago that 17 million people went to bed hungry each night, well that’s probably true – they were all on a diet. But NOW we’re told that 9.3 million families in this country are poverty stricken and on the basis of earning less than $3,000 a year. Welfare spending is 10 times greater than it was than the dark depths of the depression. We’re spending $45 billion dollars on Welfare. Now do a little arithmetic, you’ll find that if we divided the $45 billion up equally among those 9 million poor families, we’d be able to give each family $4,600 a year AND this added to their present income should eliminate poverty. DIRECT AID to the poor, however, is running at about $600 per family… Would seem that someplace there must be some OVERHEAD.”

What are your thoughts on the un-announced raid…?

By on • ( 2 Comments )

Fox and other media outlets had breaking news about the FBI doing an un-announced raid on Trump’s Mar-A-Lago retreat.

Trump says FBI agents searched his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida

Trump: Mar-a-Lago home ‘under siege, raided, and occupied’ by FBI Agents

F.B.I. Searches Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Residence in Florida

This is the first time in US history that the Feds have ever raided a former US President’s private home after they were President of the US. Scary times and this will truly enrage all freedom loving Americans. Because if they can go after a former US President that has never committed a crime, then they can definitely go after any one of us….

The true beginning of Socialism and dictatorship in our country…

I’m surprised this came out of his tweet/mouth.

If they can Trump up charges against a former president… what can they do to ANY OF US? We should all be paying attention and aware of what’s happening TODAY!

The people who lived through Communism like me should all understand that this is an act of communism.

And Communism is rooted by Socialism which is the base of Democrats in U.S.A.

They cannot afford for Trump to win back in 2024 so that they have to play this dirty card. They’ve always played dirty anyway.

Raided in his private property when he was in New York and found 13 boxes of documents. Can’t you hear it? It’s a bullshit story!

Two different videos on Socialism – Navajo and Venezuela

By on • ( 1 Comment )

I’ll start off with these two quotes:

“A government big enough to give you everything you want, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have.”  (e.g.  CONTROL) – Gerald Ford

“The problem with Socialism, is that you eventually run out of other people’s money.” – Margaret Thatcher

Defying a media ban, this reporter goes undercover in the one-time socialist idyll of Venezuela. Now why is that…?

In reference to the video above, for Venezuela:

Hugo Chavez giving a speech in early 2000’s
So Hugo Chavez is basically saying to the general populous… That there is no actual God and that Socialism IS GOD – this is straight out of the Communist Manifesto

Here it is from the actual book written by Karl Marx, himself, “Communist Manifesto” . IT states in the exact book, “…Communism abolishes eternal truths, it abolishes all religion, and all morality…it therefore acts in contradiction to all past historical experiences…”

Continuing on with the 2nd video about Venezuela —

Local citizens in the basically the barrios interviewed – talking about the current President Nicolas Maduro (Chavez’ successor).

13:55 minute mark – on who to vote – “One’s no better than the other. At this point, we don’t even know who we’re going to vote for.  Now, this country is practically destroyed… They’ve done nothing to make us vote for them. For my part, I would not vote.”

And that is saddening to hear from a citizen in Venezuela, that they lost all faith in their governmental official or people who want to run – that they do not bother to vote.   However, let’s think critically about it… If you don’t vote – the people with the same ideology will continue to run or stay in power and your government will continue on as is and your country will remain the same.

15:00 minute mark – the irony of it all… Venezuelan gov’t says she tried to plot to kill the Venezuelan President… However, caught on camera that the gov’t supporters or officials tried to kill her…

23:48 minute mark – opposition parties staging demonstrations – Some individuals are arrested, put in prison or under house arrest because they are speaking out against the Venezuelan gov’t.  Keep that in mind – that this is not new – it happens in every Socialistic or Communistic gov’t.

Now my question to everyone out there in the United States… are we going down the similar rabbit hole into Socialism –> Communism? Or are we already there and that it’s only going to get much worse? Please think about that.

I do not want our country to deteriorate.

And please try not to be one of the people who’ve I heard say, “Everyone else did it the wrong way.”

Okay, sure let’s try that approach shall we – go ask the people who left Vietnam, who was able to flee North Korea, who left Cuba, who left Venezuela, who left… I can go on and on. And ask them WHY did they leave if “Socialism” and “Communism” is “so good.”

Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022 – Passed & signed on 05-21-2022

By on • ( Leave a comment )

What comes to my mind are the doves saying, “Coo…Coo…Coo…Coo…”

Here is the bill that was passed by both houses of Congress, House of Representatives and the Senate, and signed into law by the President of the United States on May 21, 2022.

H.R.7691 – Additional Ukraine Supplemental Appropriations Act, 2022

H.R. 7691 – PDF Version of BillDownload

I’m scrutinizing this bill a little bit as to why is SO MUCH going into / towards Ukraine and so very quickly? And nothing – hardly anything – is happening in house in our own country to help out the U.S. Citizens of the United States of America?

I’m going to highlight some of the funding allocated in various screen shots of the above downloadable PDF file

So $67 million is going to the Department of Justice…
Noted above total of $12.7 Million is going to military
Noted above totals of the red highlighted, $2.4 Billion is going to Military
Noted above totals for some other “Defense Programs” of about $86.9 Million

Why is there need for “Operating Expenses”, “International Disaster Assistance” and “Economic Support fund” for those amounts? IS IT Necessary?

So my question to everyone who reads this blog… Who is actually paying for all of these?

The U.S. Taxpayer through our taxes via income tax filing, Social Security what ever it is – still comes from us wee little ol’ people.

“Oh that’s why they need to tax the rich!” Oh get off your idiotic horse and propaganda regurgitation, the “rich” people pay a hell of a lot more taxes than the regular people who just want to live & enjoy their lives. Do the math.

And think about it, for example, if we claim that we’re giving Ukraine 1 billion, but the Ukraine president only see 500 millions, will he say anything now? No, of course not. 500 millions with the newspaper “support” are better than nothing in their situation right now. If I was the Ukraine president, I would keep my mouth shut and take the support but no respect or whatsoever in my head for the “supporting” brother.

So, the question for us now is not only “who is going to pay for all of these?” But also “where have our money gone to?”
