tax facts


"America: Freedom to Fascism is a compelling and troubling account of how the wealth of our nation was silently passed from its citizens to a handful of powerful bankers in 1913. That's the year the Federal Reserve Act and the 16th Amendment were introduced, giving a privately held corporation the means to control our finances while ensuring its interest payments through the strong arms of the newly-formed Internal Revenue Service. Ever since then, Russo suggests, Americans have been gradually conditioned to accept fewer freedoms and a lower standard of living... all the while considering debt and servitude as distinctly American values."

  1. Thanks for this video, I look forward to watching it in it's entirety later on.

    "I actually take the money that the IRS says goes to them and I give it to the places where our taxes should be going. And in my letter to the IRS I said: “I’m not refusing to pay my taxes. I’m actually paying them but I’m paying them where they belong because you refuse to do so." - Julia Butterfly Hill

  2. Thomas Jefferson said that every generation should have its own revolution. I'd say we're way past due.

  3. mr. h, thanks for sharing the quote.

    The Grace Commission reported that "100 percent of what is collected is absorbed solely by interest on the federal debt and by federal government contributions to transfer payments. In other words, all individual income tax revenues are gone before one nickel is spent on the services [that] taxpayers expect from their government." source

    clint, the system can't keep on as it is without our compliance. a peaceful personal revolution is in order within each of us, and i see it happening already.=)

    "the revolution will not be televised." - Gil Scott-Heron

  4. It is time people found this out. Yes we are paying interest, to the international bankers. Who do nothing but print more money and steal our real wealth. It is time for people to wake up.
