Fresh from the introduction of HR1207, a bill to audit the Federal Reserve, Reps. Bachmann and Paul arrived at Northrop to paint a portrait of financial dystopia where 100 percent of your paycheck is being spoken for. Bachmann predicts this will happen some time around 2050. Her voice rising to a high-pitched chant, she ticked off the list of financial aggressors: Income tax, property tax, gas tax, sales taxeverytime-you-turn-around tax!

At least our crazies won’t get behind schemes to take you money under guise of “The government is always right”.
I like how they quoted this:

Ok, so the weenies at the “daily beast” think taxes are a good thing. I guess personal freedom of spending your own income is a sin in their twisted eyes?
