I recently skimmed the writing of a few far left libbies on the net. They snapped and snarled, verbally dragging republicans through muck and mire, accusing them, among other things, of being Nazis.
They missed the target.
The Nazis in this country work for the IRS. These people are above the law: they can seize property and freeze assets without due process, bring citizens to a special “tax court” where the tax payer must prove his innocence or pay large sums in lieu of jail time, and, if they want to, show up in the middle of the night and throw people out of their homes. I want most fervently to see the IRS gone and its people out looking for honest work.
Interested? Are you interested in getting the IRS out of your life; no more 1040’s? Would you like to receive your whole paycheck with no taxes taken out? Would you like to see April 15 become just another beautiful spring day? Silly questions, eh?
The answer to the IRS bureaucracy, and their taking money out of your paycheck before you even see it, is the national sales tax initiative, also called the national consumption tax and the FairTax. With the FairTax in place, the IRS will be out of your life. If you have ever had problems with the IRS Nazis, you will find this very exciting stuff.
Go to www.FairTax.org and enjoy.

Does Scribe smell the possible south end of a flying monkey troll-ing north?
Doesn’t matter. SCRIBE wouldn’t be so obviously anti-free speech to suggest tossing YOUR cookies overboard.
Most Liberal, or left, comments usually swim around the category of Fascism, not in any way a necessary synonym with Nazi. Of course, just like “Femi-Nazi,” or likening Al Gore to Nazis’, such comparisons abound on all sides.
To be honest? For the most part they do a great disservice to the historical account of the actual regime, further diluting the horrors visited upon humanity by that rather odd form of fascism.

The biggest problem with the idea of a national sales tax is that it targets those people who have the least to spare.
For instance. Let’s say that I pull down 100K a year, while poor sap Joe down the street barely makes 25K.
My needs and Joe’s are about the same, which puts our actual expenses equal. The difference is, Joe has to spend every penny just to survive, while I can afford a few luxuries and to sock away a fair bit for retirement. The National Sales Tax hurts Joe quite a bit more than it hurts me, yet he works just as hard and earns less.
It only gets worse. The millionaires in this country have and get even more than I, and they don’t spend an even greater portion of that income. Their contribution under this plan would be proportionately less than the night-shift manager of Taco Bell – he spends 100% of his income, so he is 100% taxed. Meanwhile Millionaire Bill only spends 2% of his income – he is only 2% taxed.
Where did we get the idea that the fortunate citizens of the US are somehow less obligated to shoulder their portion of the burden?
