Let's talk about a bloodthirsty religion of Middle-Eastern origin. It
claimed 340 million lives in the 20th century alone, more than all the
diseases from ebola to AIDS combined. It's behind 9/11. It not only
threatens your life even as you read this, it is stealing half of your money
right now. I bet you're starting to guess which religion it is. It is the
belief in government.

If I called the highest government officials a crime gang, it would probably
offend some people. Just as calling the 16th century Inquisitors a crime
gang would have offended some of their subjects. "How could our highest
officials be criminals?" - they would have protested - "They take our money,
but they defend our homeland from devildoers, don't they?" Heck no, they
only rob and murder the defenceless. It's the main function of a paid
government, and I'll prove it.

A government lives on two things: war and taxes. What is war? Robbery with
murder abroad. The Criminal Code prescribes sentences from 20 years to death
for committing the same crime at home, for that is the government's other
monopoly, called "taxes". With taxes you won't face an armed squad at first,
but if you resist paying persistently enough, they might visit you just the
same way they visited Iraq or murdered tax resister Gordon Kahl.
http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a393239870efb.htm Once you understand
that most wars are waged to collect more taxes, you realize that taxes and
wars are just two euphemisms for the same robbery committed on two sides of
the border.

The best money is in pretending to fight a problem you create and losing.
When the government robs you pretending to fight the evils itself generates
at home, you get hoaxes like the War on Drugs
http://www.hawaiiobserver.com/archives/005253.html , the War on Crime
http://www.hawaiiobserver.com/archives/005336.html , the War on Poverty, the
War on National Debt, etc. When it robs you pretending to fight the evils it
generates abroad, you get the Crusades, the Colonial Wars, the World Wars,
the Iraq War, etc. These wars nowadays obligatorily start with some bloody
pre-arranged infamy (sometimes financed by taxpayer money like the 9/11
massacre was) where the leaders sacrifice citizens' lives in cold blood,
trying to "justify" the ensuing robbery. See:

At the first glance, this could suggest that all you pay the government for
is failures: its failure to defend you against drugs, against crime, against
poverty, against injustice, against terror, against wars... but there is no
failure, because it never truly endeavoured to end these. It only planned to
take your money pretending to fight them, and this it fully succeeded. If
the government really wanted to eradicate social problems, it could stop
creating them at any moment. If it cared the slightest bit about YOUR
well-being, it wouldn't allocate 17 times more money to jail you than to
educate you. It wouldn't keep 4 dollars for itself for every dollar
forwarded to the needy. It wouldn't subsidize tobacco which kills 430,000
citizens and 3 million people worldwide yearly, nor continue atmospheric
nuclear tests which irradiate everyone on Earth for no real purpose, causing
an estimated 1,600,000 cancer deaths. It wouldn't have ignored for decades
the deaths of millions of citizens from known diseases such as pellagra, a
niacin deficiency. It wouldn't have conducted often lethal experiments on
hundreds of thousands of unwitting citizens in its hospitals and other
institutions, sending sometimes entire groups knowingly to death.

Sceptics often ask an investment firm who promises to be the key to their
prosperity, "so, where are the clients' yachts?" Did you ever asked the
government (which claims the same) where are the taxpayer's yachts? You
didn't because you didn't think it is a business? Man, were you right! By
its own (IRS) guidelines, the government would have to show a profit 3 years
out of 5 to qualify as a business. It's a church, which preaches about all
the prosperity it can create faster than you, if you just give it half of
your income now. Run its gospel through the time-proven "if it were really
so all-mighty, would it need my money?" dogma detector, and it flunks worse
than the Holy Dung Beetle myth of Botswana. Look how of most ancient
lowlands settlements, only the the stone palaces of rulers and gods, two
sales fronts of prosperity promises survive. The commoners who exchanged
good cash for lofty promises there, invariably couldn't afford rocks for
their own dwellings.

All right, so the government sells mostly hot air while it commits robbery
with murder. We still need some sort of power structure to get roads,
bridges, mail, firefighters, schools, arts, social programs, don't we? Not
at all. A government is not necessary for these to exist, and historical
examples prove it. Take the case of the Roman Empire. When it collapsed
(predominantly under the tax burden of its military conquests), there was a
period, about 900 AD, when there was no empire, no state, and no public
authority in the West. The state disappeared yet society, religious and
economic life continued. This clearly showed that the state and society are
not the same thing; the society is the basic entity, and the state is a
crowning, but NOT ESSENTIAL cap to the social structure. This experience had
revolutionary effects. It was discovered that man can live without a state;
that economic life, religious life, law and private property can all exist
and function effectively without a state.

If a women failed at marraige twice.

Her former 2 "husbands"?

jabriol

Yet people Like Carol Witkowski, put the blame on God..

why would an atheist do this?

littlefelller

you give no honor to God, only to yourselves, when a thought comes
into your head, you praise yourself, even try and sell it for money.
You are shameless before God himself, even as he watches you do your
deeds in plain view.

forahmad

I stand corrected.

joseph_daniel_zukiger

Huh? Huh? Huh?

Oh, I get it. It's the government's fault! Yeah, yeah, it's the
government's fault. Too many taxes, so neither of her former husbands
could pay taxes and rent and freemason dues and buy her furs.

Yeah, I'm a little slow.
