STOP BY AND BUMP THE FUNDRAISER THREAD

BUMP for future use.

The New Dealers who instituted withholding were certainly not shy about admitting the true purpose...not revenue collection, but social engineering.

The repeal of witholding would be one of the best things to happen to the American people since 1776. There are two other events that would also be extremely beneficial. The first is the colapse of the govenment run education system and the second is congressional term-limits.

The withholding tax was also supposed to die with the end of hostilities in WWII.

Like all government scams, it was sold to the American people under the misnomer of the "Victory Tax". Of course, millions of Americans at the time in 1943 were employed in defense factories making more money than they had ever made in their lives. The memory of the Great Depression was also fresh in their minds, so American workers were only too happy to contribute.

Once the war ended, the withholdings didn't stop and created a huge surplus in government coffers. You can date the creation of many government agencies, like the President's Council of Economic Advisors, from the years immediately following WWII. This was the beginning of the really cancerous growth of government that is stifling the economy today.

That's why Uncle Sam doesn't want the withholdings to ever stop, because it's desperately needed to fund all this counterproductive and wasteful bureaucracy.
