No Taxation Without Representation

Youth, Minorities and Victims of the drug war are not properly represented in this government. Yet we pay taxes for marijuana, and all over America people are paying to keep these people in jail for stuff that really doesn't matter. I really don't feel as if at least 50% of America is even represented. I know that only around 50% of America is registered to vote and only about 75% of people registered to vote even show up to vote. The solution is easy, each state should have a serious vote about leaving the union. If your state has enough people that feel that the current system is flawed, or that they are not properly represented within the current system, you should be able to operate as a completely independent state. When America was formed that's the way it was anyways, each state was an independent nation, the word "state" even means "nation" if you use it anywhere else in the world. Plus, we pay taxes for food and water, which we shouldn't have to. That makes no sense, the government shouldn't get paid when we eat. And SIN taxes??!?!?! What the fuck is that about, I thought we were supposed to have a separation of church and state. Just because it's something that is alleviating, doesn't mean you should be taxed for it. Tylenol doesn't have crazy taxes. Pepto Bismol doesn't have crazy taxes, why does something that some people buy EVERY day have insane taxes. They need to put taxes on cocaine, not cigarettes. But that brings us back to the point of people in this country not being properly represented, and most of it is about racism. Youths being treated as minorities is because the youth doesn't have the same "morals" as the people in charge, but that's just because kids aren't racist. Minorities being treated like minorities is purely racism. And the drug war doesn't seem to be about racism at first glance, but if you go back and look at why different drugs were made illegal, it's all racist. Marijuana, because people were scared of their kids mingling with jazz musicians, immigrants, and using the Spanish devil weed (even though if it had been called Cannabis, they would have all known what it was, since it was one of the salves and tonics that people used). I think we need another civil rights movement, and another youth movement. And not just camping in front of banks and asking for money, or listening to music holding hands. Concerts are great, but Woodstock can't happen again. The Music has to move, and stop sometimes. You have to get to know people and have time to do things in the towns that things are happening, you can't just make a square mile or two full of people, pass out trip drugs and marijuana, then play music. You need bakeries, and doctors and shit for that.

I have got to say I agree with most of what you said in theory at least ( except for the current racism)

The major problem we have today is the vast majorty of the population does not care what the goberment does as long as it does not affect them negativly . And even when it does affect them negativly they are so brain washed by public schools/ major media/ and popular culture that they some how think trading fredom for security is a great thing.

look what happened last time states tryed to break away , the US civil war ,all over excesive taxes of ( 3 or 4 % i believe). Point being we failed then with no real federal gov. With all the federal goberment we have today and the lack of patriotic attidiues , and civilan disarment we don't have a much of a chance

Im not saying we shuld throw in the towel but the first thing that needs to be done is 'wake up the population of sheeple'

Apply to what?
food.

when a farmer grows food, he must pay income property, fuel, regulatory, transportation, licensing and other taxes, which are a cost of doing business, and thus get passed on to whoever he sells that food to, which is YOU, so YOU actually pay all his taxes.

if it must be processed, his crop becomes even more taxilicious, since the miller who turns wheat into flour pays taxes too, , and he in turn passes those taxes on to the baker, who must also pay taxes, who in turn passes it to the supermarket who must also pay taxes, and they in turn pass it all on to YOU.

every step of the way adds more taxes, more fees, more regulatory burdens and eventually more cost to the end user (the "consumer", but the government is the only real "consumer" out there since they dont add shit to the process, they only take)

the lack of "sales taxes" on food products is a sham, since the taxes are harvested all along the way and you get to pay every dime of it, even if you dont see it on the receipt.

I assumed we were talking about direct taxes on the food and water when brought to a checkout counter at the local supermarket.

I love socialism.

Never had more freedom.
then you dont have socialism.

protip: mexico is NOT a socialist nation. mexico is a "social democratic" nation, which is the velvet hand of fascism. freedom for those with the money to pay for it.

you feel free in mexico becuase you get a check form the US govt to pay your bills. if you were a mexican peasant you would feel quite different about your "socialist tropical parqadise".

or do you think mexicans come across the border to vacation in the onion fields of oxnard?

I think I'll just move farther south. I'm free to do that. Puerto Vallarta is enticing. Odd that you use your freedom to work some lame job you obviously hate.

odd that you use the benefits given you by a country and a system you profess to despise, to live the good life in the poorest nation in the northern hemisphere barring haiti and cuba.
