Hi Lord Elevation,

It seems as if Uncle Sam is overtaxing everyone these days. Perhaps, though, it not is Uncle Sam, but merely a group of unsavory characters in government who masquerade by the former name to pocket money for themselves. I shouldn't be surprised, as governments, when left to their own devices, can succumb to the temptation of monetary corruption. As a person who believes in God, I find the landscape which Christians will dwell in after death as far superior to any this one has to offer, but, at least for now, I am dutibound by both Scriptural and Federal Law to respect authority.

Bottom line: Paying taxes is taxing (pun intended), but everyone has to do it.

Take care,
QP

Hi SokSareth, I agree that the Nazis tried to use the poor economic situation of Germany as a means of climbing to power and establishing a dictatorship, but, as Georgio Agamben explains in his State of Exception, the Nazis had to suspend the German Constitution completely in order to establish totalitarian control. Consequently, groups despised by Nazis, such as Jews (blamed for attaining wealth while, simultaneously, impoverishing non-Jewish German citizens), are reduced to what a critic described on the back of Agamben's Homo Sacer as Homo Sacers, or people "who can be killed" when the writ of habeus corpus is suspended and "yet cannot be sacrificed" when the constitution is operating. It should be duly noted that Agamben's Homo Sacer also notes that the people can be held accountable for moral approbations committed in constitutional vacuum; the Nuremberg Trials makes this point transparent. It proves universality in morality and, as a result, demonstrates undeniable proof for God's Existence. In the United States, people are anxious about what could happen if the American Constitution is suspended and what transpired in Gernmany gives them good reason to worry. As a result, I do not think that the United States will fall into the same trap that Germany did.

Take care,
QP

Of course USA isn't anything like the pre-world war II Germany. But in order to push agenda, you have to warp the reality and make it fit the agenda. I think this is what's going on here.

Hi Gramero, I don't think that the U.S.A. will devolve into a dictatorship and stay that way: history has provided us with evidence that all oppressed leaderships will, in time, evaporate. For example, when King George III of England oppressed American colonists too much, the colonists declared independence from England in 1776, and fought the British in the American Revolution. The colonists, after seven years of warring with England, won their independence from that country in 1783. Similarly, in the nineteenth century, Northern Army fought a Confederacy which succeeded from the Union and supported slavery; ultimately, the Northern Army emerged victorious over the Confederacy and, shortly afterward, slavery was abolished. Dr. Martin Luther King's Civil Rights leadership put out the remaining embers from Antebellum period, which treated African-Americans as racially inferior to whites. Recently, the United States has even recognized Native Americans, who were treated as a separate nation by the Dawes Act of the 1880's and subject to "Indian removal" and reeducation programs, the right to tribal lands and to build casinos on it if they so choose. In every case, oppression never lasts, even Adolph Hitler's Nazi Germany, Mussolini's Fascist Italy, and Josef Stalin's Communist Russia. All totalitarian forms of government eventually evaporated and the same thing is likely to happen eventually in the People's Republic of China.

Take care,
QP
