Reinstate the Constitution!
Posted in Philosophy, Politics on June 20th, 2007 by BillI was telling someone earlier that the Income Tax is unconstitutional, and then they asked why. At first I could not remember the reasoning. My argument is that employers take the money directly out of our pay against our will. It’s like the Patriot Act! Peaking into people’s business without their consent!
Well, I looked into it… I guess the 16th amendment was actually never properly ratified. For those of you that don’t know, the 16th amendment was the one saying that the individuals had to pay a part of their income to the federal government. It was never fully ratified so, it technically does not exist. And yes, it actually never existed when the founding fathers established our country!
So, how did the income tax ever come into place without proper ratification? That is a good question, my friends. The problem is people in this day and age have the mind set that the government has to do everything right. But people forget that there’s no one controlling them! We’re the ones who are supposed to do that!
Another quirky fact about our Constitution is this… originally an amendment was ratified as the 13th that inherently made it illegal for any lawyer to hold a federal office!!! Nearly every person that runs for president is a lwayer! And it’s because they all know the loopholes of the system! Friggin’ power-hungry pigs! It was never a big deal back when it was ratified so it was kind of silently forgotten. It is not included in most modern printings of the Constitution. This is insane!!!!
Why don’t people give a crap about it? Apathy is going to be what lets the tyrants sink into the government positions. PLEASE PEOPLE! For God’s sake! Resinstate the Constitution.
Vote for Ron Paul! The only presidential candidate who votes solely on Constitutionality and global neutrality.
If you believe in preserving individual freedoms granted to us by the Constitution, this is the only guy that will purely match your preference!
