We are so screwed.

We have been in 1776 for the last six years. Our founding fathers would have been shooting by now.

“.......we are talking here about taxation with no representation...We are so screwed.”

Here’s how it is going to be interpreted and implemented. When this begins, you most likely won’t be subject to the tax, you won’t be able to bring suit because you have no standing. For you, it is a political question. The judge will tell you to contact your elected representatives. For the (big evil) corporations upon whom the presidential tax is imposed, a suit will be brought. The court will find that the executive power exists to implement Congressional intent that was written in an ambiguous language. Once this happens, this disease will spread to individuals...it will show up on cell phone bills, fuel purchases, etc etc and be upheld.

Don’t bother thinking if some Republican became President and wanted to implement executive order “tax cuts”. First, he will be painted into the corner by the leftist media that such actions are unconstitutional. Courts will be ready to issue injunctions. Of course the Repub will point out that he has the power based on Obama’s executive tax precedence. Then Mr Repub will swerve into a talk about tradition, respecting the Constitution, respecting precedence, wanting to work with Congress, blah blah blah. Obama’s taxes remain in place until the next leftist can get in office to further implement new executive taxes.

"we are talking here about taxation with no representation."

Of course, comrade. What do you think "fundamental change" is all about.

Don't get upset over this now. The outrages will increase in the next two years. What I would like to know is, how do you undo a presidential pardon? This guy's pardons will be doozies.

That’s what I was saying last week, this country is going to end up one of two ways: As a totalitarian state or a country in rebellion ala 1776. Since the majority of the country seems more concerned about the Kardashians than they care about their rights going away, it looks like a totalitarian state. The people are fat and lazy sheep and they will get trampled. It will suck but I must say I’m going to enjoy watching all these libs deal with living under a North Korean type country. That will be my one solace in the coming hell.
