In a poll conducted by CNN in 2006 startling 78% of Americans said that the Washington based government is "broken". The poll also concludes that over 21 million Americans believe the system cannot be fixed.
What would lead Americans, including our fellow Floridians, to have such a pessimistic outlook on Washington's government? A confiscatory federal taxation system enforced through threats of prison or death certainly is no favorite among our people. Even a change to the so-called "Fair Tax" would do nothing to curb a bloated and out-of-control government.
The money our state collects from us through various taxes and surrenders to the federal government is used to enslave us with little or no benefit to our state. As an example, in the year 2005, the most recent year statistics are available, for every dollar the State of Florida sent to the federal government, she received only ninety-seven cents in return.
On a personal level, that is over $7,500 for the almost 19,000,000 million citizens in our Great State. Therefore, we Floridians together, put our hard earned money into one collective pot and allow the political suits in a faraway place to send it back. However, we only receive if we beg; and then our money must be spent where we are told, as if we had not the intelligence to provide for our own States' needs. Is this freedom?
We say no thank you. Let us keep our money and spend it as we Floridians see fit.

All it takes to fix this is executing politicians who trample on the constitution.

ReplyDeleteWhen the legislators of these states refuse to listen to their people there is only one way to gain independence, and we all know what that is. Politicians of today cannot and will not free you, the people must free themselves.
