Tax Season D Day

[kandaandm]

You have to love tax season. I was at the post office this evening sending in my taxes and my nice little check to the IRS. You know what really pissed me off though? It pisses me off I have to send in a check but it pissed me off more that it was mess'n up my eating schedule...I was thinking about how I supposed to be eating my chicken breast at the same time I was looking for a post office that was open late.

My tax guy fooled me. Said I was getting $2k back...Yeah!, then said oops....you owe $800. Boo!
I wouldn't mind paying the taxes if I didn't feel like I was getting bent over every time I fill up on gas, go to the grocery store, look at my stocks, pay my expensive insurance. They are the United States Government, do something for goodness sake.

Somehow, I think a lot of people ended up owing this year. I had to pay just over $500 myself. And they think we're going to just spend the stimulus money? I don't think so.

Whats utter bullshit is that the income tax itself has no Constitutional basis whatsoever because your labor is not technically taxable because youre not making profits off of it. Youre exchanging services.

I had read that also about income taxes. Didn't they make it an official law around the same time the federal reserve bank took over the money?
Gotta do what the guys with the guns say though.

Good point, I never looked at it like that.

Income tax was never voted on by enough states but was still illegally passed. You are not bound by law to pay income tax but you will face legal problems under the definition of tax evasion. When you go to court over this you will lose every time because you will never have a jury and if the judge does not convict you whether right or wrong he will set a precedent and society will stop paying income tax and this country will go to shit faster than it already is.
