We are told that paying taxes is our civic duty to make sure that we can have roads, pay for healthcare, veteran services, the military, and a litany of other "feel good" services.

In reality, it seems that our tax dollars are being funneled to immigrants and the politicians who brought them in for votes via low-effort fraud schemes that are grotesquely offensive to the sensibilities of every hardworking American who has grown up to believe that they are holding up their end of the social contract that comes with living in this country.

I won't pretend like I've ever fully believed in the legitimacy or validity of this "social contract". If you've been reading this rag for long enough you understand that I loathe the federal government. However, I didn't even believe that it was THIS BAD. Grotesquely offensive. I think that's the only way to describe what has been laid bare over the last week.

What's worse, is that for some reason or another, Nick's video was the straw that broke the camel's back. This exact fraud has been reported on multiple times since at least 2018.

How long are we supposed to put up with this? Why the hell should you or I pay taxes to a federal government that is enabling fraud on this scale. We're talking tens of billions of dollars in one state with a surface layer inspection done by a 23-year old Gonzo journalist. The likelihood of the actual fraud being a couple orders of magnitude larger is very high. Minnesota isn't known as an economic powerhouse in the country.

On that note, the California State Auditor just released a 92-page report that shows that $70 BILLION in taxpayer funds have been lost. Poof. Gone

. . .

The income tax was supposed to be limited and temporary when it was enacted in 1913. It's been 112 years, has become unbounded and is doing more significantly more harm than good. The incentives of the income tax are such that this was always destined to be the end state.

On top of this, we need to take the control of money out of the hands of central banks and governments. The case for bitcoin has never been stronger. A lot of this fraud is enabled by unfettered money printing and debt expansion, which act as a double whammy to obliterate your wealth alongside taxation.
