The legal standing of the US tax code

Share |
Are you wondering how honest and compliant the US government is with the US constitution - listen to the following extract from the movie by Aaron Russo. In this movie, Russo exposes the extortion perpetrated by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Recognise that the US government is probably moving to 'voluntary compliance' because it knows that - on the basis of its own laws - it is acting unlawfully in several respects:
1. They are acting in contravention of the US Constitution
2. They are coercing the US people into paying taxes
3. They are incarcerating people for not paying tax - when they are not legally required


This movie highlights the incoherence of the IRS tax code, as well as the disingenuous character of the IRS, however what is not explored in this video is the moral indecency of taxation. Any force of coercion INITIATED against others is an abomination. I encourage you to view the whole movie by Aaron Russo called 'Freedom to Fascism'.

Double taxation and WA miners wealth

Share |
Who would have thought that the bosses of Rio Tinto and BHP could be so innocent. When they signed off on an agreement with the Rudd Labor government, they didn't expect that they would attempt to water down the terms of the agreement. Reading this latest news story by SMH, you could be forgiven for thinking they got what they deserved; but the problem is their decision impacted all miners, resulted in a Labor government, they undermined their own credibility, and they lead shareholders on a rollercoaster ride....admittedly with the help of the government.
Of course the issue is very similar to the issue between international governments, where you have double taxation agreements. It is more difficult in the case of state and federal interests because each wants taxing and fiscal powers, and each control the same jurisdiction....in different areas of course. Was it not the states which control mineral taxes? It was until labor developed the resource rent tax.
Governments competing to raise taxes? Its like a competition between a skunk and a raccoon. Isn't it time we had a new system of government - a meritocracy based on objectivity.

Governments this year have ramped up their global warming propaganda, but in truth, just how certain is global warming. In the process of preparing a consulting report, we undertook some research and were startled by government policy. We will show that the propaganda being financed by government is shamelessly creating hysteria for the sake of political expediency.
