Verse of the Day: 'peace to the far and the near'

“The people of the land have practiced extortion and committed robbery”
- Ezekiel 22:29-30
How well that verse describes our government’s taxing policies, and those who support it.
According to Pete Sepp of the National Taxpayer’s Union, government now consumes 52.6% of the nation’s income, robbing people to pay for it’s spendaholic, unconstitutional policies. That means Tax Freedom Day is now July 11. How utterly sickening. Sadly, Democrats want even more taxation.
And, if you refuse to pay this tyrannical cost, the extortion begins, and the IRS and local tax thugs beat you bloody until you pay. Rule by robbers. America has become a kleptocracy, and Republicans support such government abuse of power.
Both parties stink to hell.
