Since you feel that Social Security is unconstitutional and "so are most of the other things the federal government does," do you obediently pay your SS taxes anyway and sheepishly follow all of the other federal laws? Or are you of the belief that since you have superior constitutional knowledge to the Congress, the President, and the Supreme Court that you can do whatever it is that you think is right, regardless of the laws on the books? Do you have the courage to follow your convictions or do you just sit around and whine?

There was a recent case of a fellow who believes as you do. His (common-law) wife was caught breast-feeding her baby while drving, which became a famous case. He even logged on to discuss the issues. I checked his websites and found that he goes to great lengths, and suffers considerably, in his determination not to be governed by laws he considers to be invalid. While I disagree with his principles, I admire his follow-through. Are you like him or do you just complain on bulletin boards?

I expose people like you on bulletin boards. People who have no knowledge of the meaning of the constitution but come here to defend liberal ideals.

I pay taxes because they have the guns. You may pay them voluntarily, I pay at gunpoint.
