Stooges
(click to enlarge)
From the Tuesday edition of Balko's Agitator morning recap comes this emetic collection of collaborator wear.
I heart them all, but my fave is here:
The John D. Rockefeller "I heart taxes" coffee cup.
No, I am not making this up.

The one thing this demonstrates is: There are uniforms should the Restoration ever go hot.

"100% of IHT proceeds to support the U.S. Treasury, so your purchase goes to support the programs you care about."
What a good cause

What an excellent cause.
This HAS to be a spoof, right?
60% think their taxes are "fair"?
Hmmm...
Well, ~50% pay ZERO TAXES, PERIOD.
~40% actually get MORE IN "REFUND" than they paid in thanks to wealth-redistribution schemes... er, I mean "Earned Income Credit" and other "refundable tax credits."
With these things in mind:
40% sure aren't going to complain about FREE MONEY!
Another 10% get back all they paid in, and so WOULD think it "fair" that they pay NOTHING.
The other 10%? Those who pay such a trivial amount that doesn't really make it a hardship. Or, more likely, utter frigging MORONS.
It's when you rise above that 60th percentile when things get sticky, and FAST. No doubt our wannabe-masters in sodom-on-the-potomac DELIBERATELY set it up this way -- with a comfortable majority unlikely to demand it be changed.
B@$+@RDS...

PS: WV="Whobeder" -- "who better to say what's fair and what's not than those who benefit from the actual unfairness?"
I thought all those fat cats put there estates in tax exempt trusts or foundations like the ford foundation? The only way their going to give a pitence is to keep the parcel.
Praise gov from whom all blessings flow,
Praise gov, all peons here below...
Which cattle car was that again, sir? I'm NOT resisting, just trying to keep traffic flowing smoo-- Ah! Aiee! Why did you hit--
Oh GOD, NOOOO! (pow,thud)
Once you agree that your betters deserve 60% of your wealth to spend as they see fit just because you die, they DO get to make certain other assumptions about you.
Geezus aitch christ I give up.
I think the 60% of the thieves, er tax lovers, rate needs a more thorough vetting.
We know that about 45% of Americans don't pay taxes, their opinion isn't relevant, so that leaves about 15% of tax payers that think theirs are fair.
That 15% pales into insignificance alongside of the 40% who think their taxes are unfair.
There are photos of French women who collaborated with the German occupiers of France, do tax loving collaborators deserve less?
What kind of dolt would buy a shirt like this? Probably gov workers trying to be apologists for their station in life.
Some of the comments at Balko's site were quite funny and poignant.
How about a shirt that says:
YOUR TAX DOLLARS PAID FOR THE MURDER OF WOMEN AND CHILDREN WHO DISAGREED WITH THE FEDGOV AT WACO, TX
KPN3%
When people think "taxes", they think income tax. They do not generally see the "hidden taxes" (hence the "hidden"). All business taxes and regulatory compliance costs are passed on to the consumer. Businesses do not pay taxes; these costs are passed onto the consumer in a near straight line. This is fact. Inflation is yet another hidden tax, and a story unto itself.
It would be shocking to the public, and these collaborator stooges as well, to see how our cost of living would drop if FedGov rolled back a bit. We would see lower costs, and more jobs as companies came back home. The answer to protecting American jobs is NOT more spending and more protectionism/taxes (Tariffs, the cost of which, BTW, are passed along to you and I.). The answer is to make America a stable and friendly environment in which to do business.
THe answer nearly ALWAYS lies with less government, not more. The most constructive thing our government can do is to get more OUT of the market, not to plunge its arms in deeper.

Everyone knows that the rich never pay any of the taxes, the system was set up by them to screw over competitors. Thanks to "foundations" the Rockefellers have paid shit taxes over the years. But never underestimate the stupidity of a socialist moron.
Just finished reading L. Neil Smith's "The Probability Broach." He describes a parallel world in which libertarian ideas won out just after the American Revolution, instead of federalism's strong central government.
Almost no government at all at any level. Technology a hundred years ahead of where we are now because of no government interference. Gold and silver coin currency valued strictly by weight, so no inflation. Vehicles cost a week's pay, nice homes a month's. No elites, no poor. Almost no rights violations or crime because offenders have to make PERSONAL monetary restitution. Everyone armed, from age five up, and responsibility rules rather than gun laws.
The key is revealed at the end. One word of difference between their founding documents and ours: government derives its power from the UNANIMOUS consent of the governed. Not majority vote, not minority rule. No coercion. Period.
This is a good observation about how we're ranked. Medal of Honor recipient's family and the soldiers he's honored for saving have to sit in the third row, while congressthings are in front.

CA,
You forgot to include the new hot idea among some on the Right like Laura Ingraham: Revere, adore, worship, & hug the rich. After all, it's THEY & NOT you who make EVERYTHING possible! The thing that puzzles me about this nascent pseudo-religion's primary tenet is who exactly it is that makes the things that made the rich rich. Since Ford, Gates, Carnegie, Rockefeller, & similar didn't crank out the goods/services that gave them the wealth they attained, one wonders what the deal is w/ this new 'faith'.
