Whoever took their rights away to begin with?
However they think will work for them.
Right. So my options are go along to get along, keep fighting the futile fight or ignore them and do as I wish until they come to throw me in jail or kill me.
Might makes right. Unless you're already up in rebellion, whether it be armed or peaceful, then I don't think you should spend your time complaining on an internet forum. Your 'right's are there to be taken.
Then again, your government has the legal right (as laid out in The Constitution) to 'extort' (I'm guessing you mean taxes, right?) your property. Who's going to stop them and re-write your own constitution? You?
I'd rather not have to stop them or re-write my own constitution. I'd rather they just ignore me. But apparently the system would collapse without collection of my annual tithing seeing as how I'm one of those high-rolling SOB's riding high on the 20K/year hog.
It's be much easier for them and me if I could just opt out. They have guns to my head forcing me to stay in. Why?
