Comment Re: That's a nice democracy you have there... (Score 0) 392

The United States is not a democracy, it's a constitutional republic.

1. The article is about Britain, not America.
2. The US is not a direct democracy, but it is still a democracy.

The reason the distinction about republics is so important to people is the same reason United States citizens are being subjugated by their own government. There is the actual law, and then there's the clusterfuck that most people think the law actually is. Nobody actually tries to read the law, they let other people tell them what it says, which is why we have random judges spewing crap and calling it law.

Case law was never law, people accept it because those around them accept it, it's a self-perpetuating lie that is destroying the US.

You want to know what the law says? Try actually reading it. It's not fun, it's rather tedious, but it is also rather eye-opening. And this is true for all countries that aren't a dictatorship.

Could you link to this please, it seems like a rather useful app to have.

You want your phone to flash you while driving? Are you even sure your phone is your preferred gender?

Literal naked phone pics, what would that even look like? Ooh, baby, you got some sexy silicon in you, come on over and give me some megabites, or maybe just some nibbles.

I think this is for tower to tower type communication. I do have to wonder about rain fade on a 95Ghz signal though.

As computers improve, the computational requirements for base stations will become cheaper and cheaper, so we might end up havings thousands and thousands of repeater stations spread throughout a town or along a road.

But I'm just guessing.

It's even more innocuous than that. The IRS was targeting political groups who applied for 501(c)(3) charity status to make sure they really qualified.

Do yourself a favor, look up 501(c)(3), then turn back the pages until you find the major heading or sub-heading they fall under. "Foreign businesses and corporations" you say? Yeah, ain't that a shock? Non-profits are voluntarily classifying themselves as foreign because some tax dude told them they're actually getting tax exempt status. The proof is in any major library if people are willing to take the time to look.

Comment IRS preventing fraud? (Score 0) 253

Are they preventing their own fraud or the fraudulent taxing of American citizens? Because I'd love to hold the leaders of the IRS accountable for all the people jailed for taxes they don't actually owe.

Here's a fun game: List out all the laws in the Constitution having to do with money, up to the 16th Amendment. Now go back and figure out precisely what was changed about the law? Then you'll notice a problem if you're really diligent about it, namely the fact that the 16th Amendment is a really vague restatement of the laws that already exist. Our teachers and judges tell us things have changed, but that's simply a lie that's been around for a little over a hundred years.

Directly taxing an American citizen living and working in the 50 states has NEVER been legal, not ever. The Internal Revenue Code never says anything about directly taxing an American Citizen, not ever.
