Quote from maxpi:
Ahh yess... the good old war on drugs... it weakens the USA because it creates public sector jobs that aren't needed, it raises the level of drug use [oh yeah, places with prohibition have more drug usage than places with freedom], it gives the central power guys reasons to go and screw with other countries... btw, I wonder what the exit strategy is? And the war on poverty? They both are bullshit designed to increase the scope and size of the fed...... they both are abject failures.. but outside of that they are such good ideas!!
At least a few people get it.
The bullshit Income Tax and Drug Laws have empowered Government COMPLETE access to every Americans personal finances. From credit cards, to bank accounts, to 401K's - the Feds know what and where you got down to the last penny.
And if you don't surrender your income tax to the Federal Reserve (to pay just the interest on debt credited from nothing, they'll hit you with asset forfeiture laws up the ass). Thats after you're in jail!!
This was all done by total, pre-meditated design = CONTROL.
