Maybe calling the income tax slavery is a wee bit of a stretch…. but yeah

‘Price floor’ is a more precise/better term for ‘minimum prices’.

The income tax would much better be equated with pimping. Prostitutes get to keep some revenue from their services, but pimps forcibly extract an arbitrary portion for what they claim is ‘protection’ or ‘security’, even though they themselves often pose a serious threat to the prostitute’s well-being. Sound familiar?

International aid programs equate more to extortionate lending than anything else.

The war on “terror” will never be over, it will just change locations. Like the war on drugs, prostitution, pornography, and the many others that will follow, it is a war on humanity. These wars will never be won; the State will just keep creating new boogiemen to frighten us with. The sheep will anxiously anticipate the next fall guy the State offers up as a sacrifice for the war on whatever happens to be next. Be careful, the next pawn could be me or you.
