Is there any more evidence that we need, that we have, or shortly will become, the U.S.S.A.?

This is Soviet-style stuff. I'm expecting we will finally get that wall along the mexican border -- only pointing at US.

Congress and Senate critters are naturally jealous of anyone who has actually earned their fortune.

Which is why they’re jealous of just about everyone.

U.S. Senate - for when you have absolutely, positively no talent or morals whatsoever.

U.S. Congress - for those who are not even as good as senators.

I hate these guys and sl*ts.

All of ‘em.

[G Larry]

The level of RINO support for this effort is disgusting!

[EEGator]

It’s clearly their money, they’re just letting us have some.

[mongo141]

Correct!

[montanajoe]

If someone is renouncing their citizenship and leaving the US because of taxes, opposition to war or for whatever reason all I can say is don't let the door hit you in the ass. Cant feel much sympathy if the get clipped by a 30% tax on the way out..

[OldNavyVet]

Just wondering ... Where is it in scripture that envy is a vice?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

At least Schmucker is finally on board with protecting the borders.

Freedom is Slavery.

The dems and the rinos are only trying to stamp out slavery.

I know I will vote - as I have in EVERY election since I was 18. I’m very confident that you will vote too.

However, considering the relatively few people who can be “bothered” with the greatest “civil duty” bestowed upon a population - we wind up with a small minority determining the future of our country.

Considering that the 48% who pay no taxes, yet reap tremendous benefits from the 52% who do work and pay taxes - have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo. These people have no problem with voter fraud, bribing other derelects, providing parties for the mentally deficient or mentally ill - they realize the importance of getting every vote. This is why Libtards - who make up only about 30% of the US Population - win elections far in excess of their minority viewpoint.

Conservatives/Libertarians/RINOs are busy bickering amongst each other - and as a whole - are too d*mn lazy to vote. If we could, as a group, get off our butts and vote - there wouldn’t be a single Libtard in Washington. Not a one. We out-number them 2:1; yet we are typically big on talk, and short on walk.

...Saverin’s exit from America was “outrageous” and that he would support Schumer’s legislation if it is necessary to prevent people from leaving America to avoid taxes.

The idiocy never stops. Past governor Celeste of OH passed a similar "exit tax" years ago, stating that any company that closed its doors had to pay the equivalent of six months wages as an exit tax. (This was when companies were leaving the North for the South, including Mexico.) The State passed the tax and, after several months, they couldn't figure out why no new businesses had been formed in OH since they passed the tax. Evidently, a bolt of lightning hit somewhere along the line and they repealed the tax.

Still, it's good to see that Chuck's still dumber than a box of rocks.

[Lakeshark]

Another great example of the liberal war against liberty. I doubt we need more of these......

I also doubt that Chuckie and his friends will be able to get this into law; so far everything they've been doing for the past couple of months has been a cigar exploding in their face. I think this one will too.

[redgolum]

Sadly I agree.

We won’t be able to travel soon.

How long before the gates of America close like Nazi Germany’s did?

RE :”That is what Mr. Norquist was talking about, though, when he spoke to The Hill newspaper about the legislation proposed by Sen. Schumer, the Democrat of New York, to tax at a 30 percent rate the $2 billion capital gains of Facebook co-founder Eduardo Saverin, who renounced his American citizenship before Facebook’s initial public offering.
“I think Schumer can probably find the legislation to do this. It existed in Germany in the 1930s and Rhodesia in the ‘70s and in South Africa as well,” Norquist said. “He probably just plagiarized it and translated it from the original German.”
Sen. Schumer is an easy target, but the blame for this one is bipartisan, as is so often the case in Washington. The speaker of the House, John Boehner, a Republican, told ABC News’ “This Week” that Saverin’s exit from America was “outrageous” and that he would support Schumer’s legislation if it is necessary to prevent people from leaving America to avoid taxes. “

Good old Boehner who pushed the TARP vote on his members in 2008 is showing his statist colors. This just proves my point : Beating Dems and then taking control with the WRONG Republican leaders is a recipe for disaster, even if you think the alternative wants to destroy the country, but Republicans are just well meaning fools that do it by accident.

Republican rally point : Vote Republican because they only help destroy the country by accident(we have to get lucky sooner or later).

A couple of days ago when this story first broke, I noted that one of the first things fascist states do when consolidating power is pass laws to prevent the expatriation of wealth. And sadly, seems like some right on this forum are cool with that.

FINANCIAL REPRESSION:

1. Capital Controls - includes directed lending to government by captive domestic audiences (such as pension funds, banks, etc.)

2. Tightly controlled interest rates, artificially low, while maintaining a higher rate of inflation,

3. Regulation of cross-border capital movements, and a tighter connection between government and banks.

[ConorMacNessa]

Isn't this a direct tax? If so, does it comply with Article I, Section 2, Clause 3 of the Constitutuion?

"Representatives and direct taxes shall be apportioned among the several States which may be included within this Union, according to their respective Numbers..."



Nos genuflectitur ad non princeps sed Princeps Pacem!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

Apparently Schumer fits into another category from the early days of the Reich.

He has Lebensunwertes Leben, “a life unworthy of life.”

Though he would put Republicans and conservatives into this category, the real dehumanization is in those who dehumanize. Just as it was in Nazi days, it was the Nazis who were the subhumans, not those they called subhuman.
