          So I was out today in public (ran into an estate sale on the way back from a routine doctor's appt) and fascinating to hear the chatter among the people waiting in line to get in. A bunch of people complaining about healthcare costs, the greed of CEOs... *multiple* people who had to drive their kids to another hospital because our local hospital was taken over by HCA and wouldn't accept them as patients; complaints about how the hospital only cares about profits, and how different it is (with no blame to doctors and nurses, only the company and its executives). It was a lot of people nodding and agreeing, and (as far as I could tell) a very mixed political demographic and socioeconomic factors. Healthcare and hospital system CEOs may be one of the most hated groups of people in the world.

            World leaders and corporate bosses are slowly cobbling together a digital 'singularity' system to monitor and control all human activity via AI-controlled systems. The plan is to extend the reach of this AI into every app, operating system, and device of every citizen, maintaining 24/7/365 real time monitoring of everything you do.

            Different facets of the planned system are being individually implemented across an array of countries. The speech control system is implemented in Britain and being tested there. The social credit system is implemented in China and being tested there. The fake news and propaganda system is heavily implemented in the United States.

              How about we solve the homeless problem and housing crisis first?

              The warmongers spent eight trillion dollars to drop bombs on weddings, fatten defense contractors, and provide medical care for maimed soldiers ... but building homes for the homeless and poor would be evil socialism and we can't have that. In effect what is being implied is that we can't build homes for the poor, but we should instead use that money to bomb foreign nations for so-called democracy.

              The money spent on military conquest could have built 80 million houses and provided millions of good, temporary jobs in construction.

              In fact the money spent on the conquests in Iraq and Afghanistan could have made a quarter of Americans home owners.

              The so-called government of this country HATES the people. And it shows. They are thieving, murdering liars and thugs full of active and chronic hatred and malice toward the people. We live in another Catholic-styled dark age, where the tax collectors and creditors rob the people and use the money to sniff out heretics.

              I realize it is too much to ask. I realize you will all waste your energy whining about crap that doesn't matter, like entitlement programs and imaginary racism, instead of doing the things that actually build people up, like giving them a roof over their head free of the encumbrance of debt.

              The government forces a fragmentation economy on the people that forces millions to move away from their families and home towns just to find work and housing, then calls it 'socialism' to build houses for the people they have intentionally uprooted. Sick. Just sick and evil.

                    Dear Congressman / Congresswoman / Senator,

                    ABOLISH THE INCOME TAX NOW!

                    This is the most important letter I have ever penned to a public official. My message is that the income tax on worker wages is a insidious form of slavery that must be abolished. This is not a Democrat issue or a Republican issue. This is an issue of real justice for a nation of impoverished workers being taxed with a gratuitous and unnecessary income tax that has steadily lowered personal wealth and autonomy for several generations.

                    ABOLISH THE INCOME TAX NOW!

                    ABOLISH: verb; To do away with; put an end to; annul; to eradicate; to destroy completely; make void.

                    Notice that ABOLISH does not mean:

                    cut ; lessen ; lower.

                    It means to completely get rid of, en toto, entirely, as in ABOLISH SLAVERY.

                    So give no place to word games, Honorable Sir or Madame. Just. ABOLISH. INCOME. TAX. NOW.

                    Recently President Trump has vowed to push for the abolition of the income tax on American worker wages and replace the revenue streams with a tariff system. I require you get behind Mr. Trump, despite his warts and pimples and dimples and whatever character issues or political peeves and quibbles you might have with him--and move full steam ahead to draft, approve, legislate, and enter into law a bill abolishing the federal personal income tax on all domestic wages for all United States Citizens.

                    The income tax is a relic of feudal barbarism and imperialist war-making barbarism. It enriches a internationalist political class which is able to suck grants and subsidies from its piggly teat while disbursing tiny squirts and crumbs to the American people and their infrastructure. As an American, I have had enough of this thievery of my wages for funding every grimy and useless rent seeker under the sun.

                    Millions of Americans don't want to hear whiny excuses about how the Federal Government can't function without the Federal Income Tax. That is nonsense. America functioned for several generations during her greatest period of industrial and economic growth and power without an income tax. Then when the World Wars were ramping up we were saddled with this 'war tax' on our income to fund the war. Since then the taxes have kept us impoverished while making the war machine and grifter classes very rich. Workers' standard of living has steadily declined since the income tax was introduced and illegally retained after the World War about a hundred years ago.

                    I require that you push for, and vote yes on a COMPLETE AND TOTAL ABOLITION of the income tax for all employee wages, and ensure no new taxes are ever again levied on employee wages. If FedGov can print trillions of dollars to fund overseas adventures and endless wars, then FedGov doesn't need to be taxing us for anything. FedGov already taxes us through inflation anyway. Why the hell should any of us have to fill out a return? Maybe FedGov should file a return to us each year to show how much of our labor inflation has stolen from us.

                    If you don't work strenuously toward abolishing the federal income tax I will vote for whoever decides to run against you. If the federal income tax is abolished, I will vote for your re-election.

                    ABOLISH INCOME TAX NOW!

                    Very truly yours in freedom and liberation from tax serfdom,

                    John Doe American

                      Trump is REALLY serious about eliminating Income Tax (IMPORTANT)

                      (IMPORTANT!) I don't much care for politics but this is a positive development for everyone.

                      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy290h4Yn18

                      (Boost, Copypasta to other networks, text your mom ... this is great news!)

                      Trump is talking very seriously about eliminating the income tax for U.S. Citizens. This is the first time a President has had the stones to seriously approach this issue. The income tax is the bread and butter of the military-industrial complex, which enriches itself on our backs. There is no time better than now to abolish the Federal Income Tax.

                      I don't believe the anti-tariff fear-mongerings. America funded its operations on tariffs for several generations, with no federal income tax at all. Plus the income tax is a war tax. It was implemented specifically, and I do mean SPECIFICALLY, for funding the war machine. Gutting the income tax guts the war machine.

                      There will be a lot of resistance from the Federal Reserve and the war machine military industrial complex. They depend on the income tax to foment wars and socially engineer our lives and their total information awareness panopticon.

                      The American people are taxed and that money is used to enrich the rich and the rest of the world through subsidies, bribes, grants, etc. Instead America should tax the rest of the world and enrich the American people. Abolishing the progressive personal income tax on wages is the first step in the right direction.

                      Whether you are Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or whatever, now is the time to write to your representatives and demand that they support the abolition of the income tax. Fifty million letters should fill up Congressional mailboxes with ABOLISH THE INCOME TAX ON WAGES NOW! ABOLISH, NOT REDUCE! ABOLISH, NOT CUT! ABOLISH! emblazoned on the envelopes.

                      This is serious. It doesn't matter if your party lost or won the election. What matters is that we get this tax gorilla off the backs of all Americans. We have a President seriously talking about it repeatedly. Trump kept his promises to pardon Ross Ulbricht and other persons given draconian punishments by the courts. He has kept several other political promises. He promised to stump before Congress for the abolition of the income tax. Don't let the momentum die on this proposition. Don't let him wane on his commitment to abolition of the income tax. Get behind it and push!

                      Abolishing the income tax will do more good for American workers than all the political promises of the last twelve Presidential elections. This is an opportunity for real change for the average American.
