THE ELITE DON’T PAY NO STINKING TAXES « The Burning Platform

I've stated this before, the national debt could be paid off by assessment, i.e. a percentage of wealth, with a balanced budget amendment and requiring a two thirds majority in both houses of Congress to raise taxes.

I've also stated that adding a national VAT and national wealth tax would distribute the tax burden across the spectrum of economic activity, instead of placing it directly on the shoulder of wage earners, although the best solution would be to abolish the income tax.

Ron Paul would begin to move the country in the direction of less government  by cutting spending. The average citizen's lives haven't gotten bad enough to convince enough of them to vote against the status quo. After November, it will be too late, as whatever reset is going to occur is going to happen in a two to three year time frame, maybe sooner, as soon as September, if financial markets implode, or later, within two decades as demographics simply overwhelm the entitlement system.

The vote in November will be a choice between Socialist Marxism and Capitalism. Socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried, ever. Free market Capitalism needs to decentralize, which is exactly what the status quo doesn't want. For them, the elite, by divine providence or otherwise, the choice is simple, relinquish control or be destroyed.

Milton's Paradise Lost includes the phrase, "it's better to reign in hell, than serve in heaven", and this seems to be the mindset of the controlling elite. These unwitting dupes know not whom they serve, for their master, the Devil, will as surely destroy them as he would those of us remaining.
