I share your feelings expressed in Post # 126. Let me point out I have been at this for over 35 years! My major contribution in the fight to restore our constitutionally limited system of government was “Prosperity Restored by the State Rate Tax Plan” which I co-authored with Ed Ellison who has since passed away.
Most of the sufferings we experience today can be linked to a corruptible system of taxation and a corruptible money system, both of which invite predators to flock to Washington to manipulate each in a manner which steals the real material wealth created by America’s hard working citizens and business owners.
Our founding fathers suffered the miseries of dishonest money and dishonest taxation, and they provide a remedy for each. If America’s honor and greatness is to be restored, it will only happen if and when the people themselves rise up and take back their government, and what could be a more motivating force than a proposal put on the table to return to our Constitution’s ORIGINAL TAX PLAN, as it was intended to operate by our Founders?
Now Just imagine if Mark Levin and other “conservative” talk show hosts [Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, Laura Ingraham, Schnitt, Dennis Prager, Bill O'rielly, Mike Gallagher, Doc Thompson, Lee Rodgers, Neal Boortz, Mike Huckabee, Tammy Bruce, Monica Crowley, Herman Cain, etc.] got behind and promoted the following:
House/Senate Joint Resolution
Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the sixteenth article of amendment and end taxes calculated from profits, gains, salaries and other “incomes”.
Section 1: The sixteenth article of amendment to the Constitution of the United States is hereby repealed.
Section 2: Congress is henceforth forbidden to lay ``any`` tax or burden calculated from profits, gains, interest, salaries, wages, tips, inheritances or any other lawfully realized money.
Section 3: This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by three fourths of the several States, as provided in the Constitution, within seven years from the date of the submission thereof to the States by the Congress.
And imagine further if Mark Levin then called for a 2 million man march on Washington to demand Congress send to the states for ratification the above H.J.RES.
I think there would be no problem gathering 2 million patriots to join in such a demonstration, and that is why I believe our so called “conservative” media personalities will not promote what I suggest above.

We are here today and gone tomorrow, but what is most important is what we do in between, and is what our children will inherit and remember us by.
Yours is a good start. But I don’t think it goes far enough. Just my opinion. I have to go for now. Will check back later.
I do think this is an important issue and have been enlightened and surprised about the spread of perspectives on this issue at FR.
