Did you ever notice that individual freedom is dead? Honestly, you cannot own property. It may seem like it, but if you don't pay taxes, your property can be taken away. At what point do you actually own the property? I bought my boat, paid tax, and now it is mine. I don't have to keep paying for it. I bought my car, paid tax and now it is mine. If I want to keep my car on my land (or what should be my land), I never have to pay for insurance, taxes, registration, etc.
The problem is that I will never actually own my land. If I can produce enough energy to run my equipment, grow enough food to eat, and survive off my own land, I will still have to pay taxes every year and could have my property taken away from me simply because I didn't give more money to the government. Just like being penalized for the Obamacare mandate, I am forced to pay. I don't get a choice.
We have no freedom to simply exist as we see fit without the government demanding something from us. Real freedom means simply that. I have no problem with sales taxes. In fact, I personally believe that all tax should be sales tax. It would incentivize savings and wealth creation while simultaneously removing the burden of tax season. Everyone who purchases any products would participate in the taxation and once a property is purchased, there would be no further taxation. People would keep the full value of their labors and only pay tax when choosing to make a purchase. The government would be forced to live on what they receive and it would incentivize the government keep a healthy economic environment.
All I am saying is that it is about time that we are able to own property, and there are several ways that this can be accomplished. I would love for my kids to be able to actually own property of their own as well. some day.
Peace and Freedom,
Geoff
