They Are Mine To Defend

Whether I have made an issue of it or not, the IRS has been harassing me for over a year now. I don’t need any sympathy here, that isn’t the point, it is merely an illustration of the power of the government to yank the chain, to drive the stake into the ground and bring us to bear. They want fear and when they get indifference and dismissal, they grow personally angry. Personally Angry at the people who support this outlaw regime through forced taxation, a form of involuntary servitude, if you ask me.

Involuntary servitude is when a person is forced to work for the benefit of another without compensation. Is that not what the government demands when it places penalties on the failure to pay taxes? But, there will be no military, no police force, no fire fighters…why not? Are these not what we would willingly pay for? Isn’t that part of the social compact? But, when force is brought to bear on those who do not find value in these things, primarily because they intend to attend to them themselves, the taxes are demanded, threateningly so, with penalties and fines.

Why can’t the government come to us and make their case? The point is after passage of the Sixteenth Amendment, we made that decision and, like the government always does, it took the decision to support those services with automatic deductions as a sign that the public pocketbook could be picked at any time to support any project or idea the government might come up with. We are forced to pay for those thing in which we find no value.

The government has no right to taxes while in violation of the Constitution. Again, the nine elitist, politically appointed justices are in no position to decide what rights we have or when our rights have been violated, only those suffering those abuses can make that determination and if the court system functioned as a guard against these abuses, rather than a legitimization of the police state, it would endorse the view of the individual against the government. The Constitution is not a document written for the elite, the educated, the sophisticated, it was eloquently, but plainly written for the people to read and understand their roles, obligations and rights. The fact that a group of representatives, with a federal state of mind can pass illegal laws, demand of us obedience and rely on the political appointees of the Supreme Court to support their demands is irrelevant.

Now, I paid all of my payroll taxes as a service to my employees. I paid my own and my partner’s taxes whether I agreed with them or not in order to run the company without my political views coming into the equation, yet, the IRS has made a project of demanding my 941 quarterly returns, which somehow the U.S. Mail failed to deliver to them, the U.S. Department of the Treasury. I guess they couldn’t find the address. My CPA sent me the documents, the IRS 941 quarterly returns and I paid them and sent them via U.S. Mail. How is it that the IRS received NONE of them? Not one out of eight?

Or, did it have more to do with the fact that during the Obamacare debate that I became ferociously political? Did it have more to do with my refusal to be intimidated by the presence of Michael Sandoval, IRS, in my office? Was it my dismissive, “don’t bother me” attitude that sent Michael over the edge and made him refuse to see and take into account my documents? I either have to believe that the harassment is political, or that the U.S. Mail cannot find the U.S. Treasury.

Now, having finally acknowledged that the 941′s have been filed, a thing Mr. Sandoval said he could not find, that did not get filed, now, he claims that the figures on the documents don’t quite fit the figures they have on file. That they have on file! From where? From documents that didn’t arrive, that they don’t have?

Listen, let’s not get too involved with my particular case, it is irrelevant, except to point out how the Obama Administration uses the power of the Executive to punish those who speak out against his method of extra-Constitutional governing. Now, do I think I am being targeted specifically by the IRS? Not really, I’m not that big of a fish, but that ought to scare the heck out of everyone else. My name got on a list of petitions I signed or his paid Internet surfers put me on their list of opponents to the Obama Administration and that went into the gigantic pool of suspected income tax evaders. I am less than a blip on the radar screen, I am merely a name submitted by someone somewhere.

Once the government fails to understand words like “congress shall make NO law” restricting this, or that right and makes such a law, it is an illegal regime. I don’t give a flying damn about what nine elitists beholden to the federal government for their status, their salaries, their retirement plans, etc as a judge of whether or not I have such rights. My rights were given, as the founders stated for reason, by God, not Supreme Court Justices and it cannot be taken by these robed rogues. 

But, ultimately, they are mine to defend or forfeit. The IRS has not intimidated me, they have not inhibited my tongue, they have enraged me and supplied me with righteous indignation.

    I don’t know your situation, be it business or personal taxes. In general you will lose. You may choose to fight it in court or try to evade and escape but sooner or later you will lose. What you need to do is resolve it. Get a good tax consultant or lawyer and ask for a settlement and payment plan. Then stick to it or even better find a way to pay it all off even if it means selling personal assets. It does matter “how” you got into this mess. If you actually knowingly did something wrong they may not agree to a repayment plan and prefer to put you in jail and sieze your assets. But you still have no other choice but to find an agreeable solution that has you paying what you owe plus fines and interest and hoping that satisfies them. If you stand on principal your next roommate may be named “Bubba”.

      Let me explain. I PAID my taxes EVERYTIME, there is record, my bank has the records, my CPA has the records. This is pure harassment for my involvement in the liberty movement, nothing else.

USS Shakespeare – CVN 80 – “Unto the breach”

15 May 2012

OK, that may seem a little silly, but hear me out. We are not just in a fight for liberty and the founding principles. We are in an existential fight for all of Western Civilization. Sure, it would be nice to rollback 100 years of progressive nonsense and return to our (possibly imagined) Constitutional roots, but there’s more than that. Between the collectivists and the muslims, millenia of civilization (back to Homer, kids) are in …

Fidelity to Failed Ideas

12 May 2012

It’s terribly unfortunate that, out of an entire four-year cycle of politics, we’ve not seen the national economy recover in any substantial way. That’s a long time for it to be languishing the way it’s been. But it affords us a unique educational opportunity because we’ve been able to watch two presidential administrations — one archetypically liberal, running for re-election, and the other one whatever passes for “conservative” in this day & age, and not …

And A Soldier Dies

6 May 2012

When it comes to Kerodin’s Convention in DC, I am in. From the first day they passed the seat belt law in Colorado, 1986, or thereabouts, I knew it would come to this. I chaffed at the first sign of a government obsessed with my safety and knew that one day it would grow to the point that something would have to be done about it. It never stops at common sense, once they snare you …

Intelligence Is No Defense Against Absurdity

5 May 2012

Constitutional scholars do not impress me. I have listened to any number of them, including Representative Trey Gowdy, who recently ripped Kathleen Sebelius over the Obamacare issue. Okay, that was good and I enjoyed this video of the confrontation. Refreshing as it was, and instructive on the absolute ignorance of the Constitution and the Supreme Court and any measure of weighing Constitutionality against a bill put before congress that the Obama Administration has, even at the …

Their Work Will Never Be Done

1 May 2012

Today the world is different. Our nation is different. As Americans we are being pulled in different directions, called on by society to remain silent and acquiescent to the great ramrod of collectivism, or asked to risk everything for principles and ideals that are at the heart of Americanism, but no longer supported by our government(s). Indeed, to demand that the government recognize and operate under these very ideals upon which it is based is considered …

Trust and Retractions

30 Apr 2012

Now here is a picture that’s worth a zillion words… Look what’s going on there now. Green line is retraction incidents, measured in “notices” per 100,000 publications in scientific journals. Now, you could argue there may be problems with measuring it this way…but nevertheless, if the plotting is shaped like this, it’s gotta mean something. And the line more or less gels with public perception of the problems with science across time, if it doesn’t …

If The Darkness Descends

13 Apr 2012

Here’s the problem as I see it, whenever I attempt to communicate some ideas to the readers of this blog, I run into a problem. It is not that Romney supports guns and Obama wants to take them away, it is that every politician wants to take them away, either from an ideological police state mentality, or from a law and order, “make it safer for our guys, the government guys”, point of view. Does …

Drop The White Flag and Fight

10 Apr 2012

The announcement of Santorum only confirms what we all knew, that no matter who got the GOP nomination there would be a big-government liberal in the White House after the 2012 election. The announcement only sets the field. Santorum would have been no different, in my estimation, none of them would. I know I have been through this before, but there is no, none, zero chance that any government stooge will ever do anything to …

Studies

7 Apr 2012

So the kid’s here for spring break, of which today is the last day. The fiancee and I are driving him back to Nevada today so he can resume school. We had a blast with the go-karts and the trip to the shooting range, where I lost my .40 S&W virginity and managed a decently tight grouping in spite of the wicked recoil on the Beretta. Also upgraded his home-built with a new 2GB video …

A Step Forward

5 Apr 2012

It occurs to me that the best of us seek the justification of the Constitution to act, to not appear lawless and out of control. We seek some sort of sanctification, legitimization in our desire for liberty. We are not unreasonable about this, we don’t demand the destruction of our government, only that it would work the way it has promised to work. We want to be able to count on something.  In the face of that …
