Last week, I recieved an email from a good friend of mine who is conservative, who is back in school at 40 to "better himself" to earn more money to provide a better living in the future.

Over here in Iraq, he said 'with sarcasm' mind you.."How dare I serve my country in Iraq and not pay my fair share of taxes when I should be redistributing it amongst the less fortunate".

I went into a "downward spiraling funk" at the misery lazy ass nonworkers must be enduring while I am joy riding out in town not paying my fair share of taxes. Bummer!

Proud member of the group here. I am pro life, religious, gun advocate, and married to a disabled vet. I am sharing the video below to help educate folks about forms of govt that exist, and why people are so peeved. Please feel free to view, but more importantly, pass on. Thanks

The video is a description of the 5 supposed forms of government, from 100% government control (Communism, facism, totalitarianism etc) to 0% government (anarchy) it obliteraties all forms of government as only temporary and futile except for 2, olgiarchy and republic. It does this in a clear concise manner, which effectively shows even a grade schooler about them. It then, in the last few moments, explains Rome, its beginning as a republic, and its morph into a democracy. The parallels are well put, and clearly where this country is today. It is an excellent way to spread the word to those who have never been taught proper history, and that is alot of people since they have been re writing it for so long now.

I have been posting this sucker all over all day, and sometimes I forget that some are stuck at work, so I have included the above basic description of the video, however it does not do the video justice. I beg, implore and urge all to view it who have not. THIS is the reason we are so angry. Taxes are a symptom, losing our republic is the disease!!!!!

To anyone who says that it is our patriotic duty to pony up as many of the fruits of our labors that government demands, I'm more than happy to point out the part of the tax code that allows voluntary contributions above & beyond liability. I invite them to give more than they “legally” owe. Hems & haws, let the rich guys give more, because they're already having a tough time meeting expenses. *Needed* that big screen TV, fancy wardrobe, the furniture was getting shabby & all of the credit cards are maxed out.

I consider time to be the only real asset any of us have. How we spend our time, our energy equates to the kind of “fruits” that I'm talking about. Those who serve in uniform don't get near enough compensation for the great gift of their fruits that they give to our nation & to see them attacked for their service just boggles my mind.

So much for the “I support the troops, just not the mission” meme from the left. Least the memo rips the mask off of that garbage. A clear bright line is easier to see, so if the order is ever given (tin foil beany firmly in place), hoping reaction will be like the end days of the USSR instead of something like another Tienanmen Square.
