Now if you could just extend that idea to all the wars that the republibertarianeo-conazis start I might go for it. But it never does seem to work that way, does it?
Democrats start wars too. Obama is a murderer. So is Bush. They are all controlled by the same puppet masters.
Now the issue with money is it's creation. What is money?
Money is created by the Federal Reserve a private entity, and loans it to the US government with interest. That is why we can never get out of debt, it is impossible, there is never enough money in circulation to pay off added interest. You get massive inflation and depressions/recessions. Along with the fact banks use fractional reserve banking as they create money from only a fraction of the actual reserves they have. Congress has the power to coin money, not a private entity, hence the federal reserve is illegal and usurping the power from the people.
Taxes are a way to steal money from the people and give to the rich banker/politicians/other countries and so forth.
We have no say in where our taxes are used, they are hardly used to benefit the nation you are living in. A large portion of US taxes go to just pay interest payments, now if the US Govt coined their own money there would be little to no interest on a national debt, currently they barrow all the money they have from the FRBS. So a majority of public money could actually go back to the people. The problem of money creation has to be addressed before any type of rational monetary policy and tax policy can be established.
