LIBERTARIAN: How about getting the States to collect “federal” taxes?

Push comes to shove—what about taxes?

Technically, most federal taxes and fees are collected directly by the federal government, most notoriously IRS “withholding”.  But what if states decided to temporarily intervene? Hypothetically, could they—again using 9th and 10th Amendment arguments—ask employers in their states, who are forced to withhold, to temporarily place those revenues in a dedicated escrow account, “withholding the withholdings “, as it were, until certain reforms—like election reforms—are passed and implemented? We could find out.  

*** end quote ***

Libertarians are always looking for ways to put “logs” in the Federal Gooferment’s way.

Here’s a good one.

All federal taxes collected in a State should be collected by the State Gooferment and forwarded to the Federal Gooferment!

The value is NO NEED FOR THE IRS.

Most States have a similar income tax system that piggy backs on the Federal Gooferment system. Time to switch places.

Those States that don’t have an income tax can figure out how they would like to fund, or not, the Federal Gooferment!

No need for Federal programs that send money to the States either.

TINFOILHAT: The “birther” issue come up again?

Thursday, June 10, 2021

Just Who Made Obama’s Birth Certificate an Issue?
By Jack Cashill

*** begin quote ***

The media’s failure to investigate Obama’s background is a scandal in its own right.  Bauer, though, had done his job.  The day after the suit was dismissed, the word leaked out that he would be taking over as White House counsel.

Berg would file additional suits, as would others.  He simply requested to see some basic information about Obama, most notably his passport applications and his birth certificate.  With little in the way of explanation, Obama’s attorneys resisted at every turn.  These attorneys included not only Bauer and other private attorneys, but also U.S. attorney general Eric Holder.  “What a tragedy,” writes Berg in a self-published book, “that our government with an opportunity to resolve this issue one way or the other, did not do so to protect Obama.”

*** and ***

What attracted Trump to the birther issue was not Obama’s race, but his inexplicable resistance to sharing his birth certificate.  If Obama were born in Hawaii on August 4, 1961, there would have been no reason not to share it.  In my own forthcoming book, Barack Obama’s Promised Land: Deplorables Need Not Apply, I argue that Obama was hiding not the “where” of his birth, but the “when.”  Although this argument is speculative, Obama’s behavior strongly suggests he was hiding something.

*** and ***

Not to be a conspiracy theorist, mind you, but I would suggest that a firm capable of commissioning the Steele dossier would have no trouble dummying up a birth certificate.  Just sayin’.

*** end quote ***

Having read Cashil’s book on the “birth certificate” issue, there is certainly enough doubt about its authenticity.

But even more important than the certificate itself, who felt it necessary to create such an inept forgery,

That creation indicates both a conspiracy and various state and Federal crimes.

As usual, the media is not interested in “the Truth” anymore, if ever.

Sad to say, this is the story of “every story”!

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Keystone XL was an example of Gooferment ‘market interference” to make things worse

Tuesday, June 8, 2021

Keystone XL

A Canadian energy firm behind the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline said yesterday it would formally end the project. President Joe Biden revoked the company’s permit to build an extension from Montana to Steele City, Nebraska, on his first day in office. 

The canceled line was planned as the fourth phase of the larger Keystone pipeline, which is currently operational (see map) and transports more than 600,000 barrels of crude oil per day from Alberta, Canada, to refineries along the US Gulf Coast. The already built line, which enters the US in North Dakota, remains operational. The addition would have increased capacity by roughly 800,000 barrels per day, or 7% of US daily consumption.

The Phase IV extension was originally opposed over its environmental impact in US Great Plains states, but became a proxy for the larger debate over climate change. See a timeline of the project here. 

# – # – # – # – #

SO how will all this oils move from Canadan to the Gulf Coast? 

Trucks?

No extra pollution, risks, or inefficiency in that!

Gooferment making things worse and worse every time.

RANT: No fraud here?

Monday, June 7, 2021

https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3965553/posts

*** begin quote ***

Approximately 3,000 mail-in ballots counted in the Nov. 3 election were supposedly cast by UCSB students residing in a voting precinct that, along with other dorm buildings, includes the Francisco Torres/Santa Catalina Residence Hall at 6850 El Colegio Road in Goleta.

Problem: Due to COVID-19, the Torres Building, which normally accommodates 1,300 students, was empty and locked down through most of 2020, as were all other UCSB dorms.

This means no students/voters were residing inside the Torres Building (nor any of the other dorms) during the election season.

Wonder if PTSD can be triggered by music?

“I’ve lost her all over again. I’m so sad that I don’t have her. But I’m so grateful that she was with me on that island. And I know what I have to do now. I gotta keep breathing. Because tomorrow the sun will rise. Who knows what the tide could bring?” Chuck Noland (Tom Hanks) in “Cast Away” (2000)

VETERANS: DNF D-Day

Sunday, June 6, 2021

https://www.dday.org/the-memorial/

Bedford boys

*** begin quote ***

Bedford, Virginia… Like eleven other Virginia communities, Bedford provided a company of soldiers (Company A) to the 29th Infantry Division when the National Guard’s 116th Infantry Regiment was activated on 3 February 1941. Some thirty Bedford soldiers were still in that company on D-Day; several more from Bedford were in other D-Day companies, including one who, two years earlier, had been reassigned from the 116th Infantry to the First Infantry Division. Thus he had already landed in both Northern Africa and Sicily before coming ashore on D-Day at Omaha Beach with the Big Red One. Company A of the 116th Infantry assaulted Omaha Beach as part of the First Division’s Task Force O.

By day’s end, nineteen of the company’s Bedford soldiers were dead. Two more Bedford soldiers died later in the Normandy campaign, as did yet another two assigned to other 116th Infantry companies. Bedford’s population in 1944 was about 3,200. Proportionally this community suffered the nation’s severest D-Day losses. Recognizing Bedford as emblematic of all communities, large and small, whose citizen-soldiers served on D-Day, Congress warranted the establishment of the National D-Day Memorial here.

*** end quote ***

Having met some D-Day vets I’d say the common factor was their humility.

Not sure that I’d have had the stones to do what they did,

And, I hope such courage will never be required again.

RANT: All involved and complicit need to be called to account

*** begin quote ***

• The Lab-Leak Theory: Inside the Fight to Uncover COVID-19’s Origins Throughout 2020, the notion that the novel coronavirus leaked from a lab was off-limits. Those who dared to push for transparency say toxic politics and hidden agendas kept us in the dark. (Vanity Fair)

*** end quote ***

Special place in Hell for all the “co-conspiritors”!

This should be treated like a genocide.  It could have been an extinction event.  And, needs to be prevented in the future.

Congress should use “marque and reprisal” on all involved!

Leadership and Sacrifice at Midway June 4, 1942

# – # – # – # – #

A great summary of the battle of Midway.

It’s hard to imagine the courage it took to go up facing certain death in obsolete hardware to take a swing and hope for a “lucky strike”.

The American experiment was save here by a bunch of tough men.

Where will they come from when need again?
