Has Trump waived the income tax or something?

Nah, I’m just trying to figure out your point of view. Are you from Leeds?

The South does sound a bit like Yorkshire.

I didn’t assume at first that “income taxation is theft” needed much more of a description, its pretty straight forward. But since you asked here it is.

Theft of income is a theft on one’s time and labor, and since you have no say in the matter under penalty of being jailed and/or killed depending on how things play out. It’s nothing more than monetary slavery. The country functioned fine for 150 years without an income tax up, and the country’s economy was booming massively in the 1800s. There were roads and other public services prior to the income tax as well.

No on has a problem if you want to celebrate Southern food or football or music or Faulkner or whatever other great cultural contributions that have come from the Hookworm Belt. But you all insist on flying Confederate battle flags! Don’t tell us you aren’t on board with slavery when you proudly display icons of the most barbaric elements of the South.

Can you define ‘theft’?

You wanted context, i gave it to you. You asked for back round info, I gave it to you.

I can’t imagine why you’ve been called racist before.

After you’re done with that, can you define “the country’s economy”?

If you didn’t know Obama’s race would you have voted for him?

All we know about you is that your brother thinks you’re conservative and you named yourself with a pro-Southern Heritage name. That in itself is enough for us to guess that everything you do that negatively impacts people of color is because you think of them as less than yourself, as property.

So much this. I was born and raised in South Carolina, and in reading this thread he sounds so much like my mother. When I call her out on it, I get the “you’ve done got above your raising” (I moved away to Cali for a while and graduated college, obviously a bad thing in her eyes) rather than any kind of actual argument back.

Name 2 beneficial things from the South that aren’t built on the culture of slavery.

That taxation blurb reads like a book report from someone whose sources were the libertarian versions of Wikipedia and Microsoft Encarta.

So because the country was booming, that has to do with folks calling me racist? Stating facts = racist behavior now?

Ah, so you don’t believe in government. You’re some kind of anarcho-capitalist?
