Why would the gap be relevant? Perhaps we should ignore a small % of X Amendment claims? That would be a small gap right? The Amendments dont confer rights to the people; they only remind the people of the things they gov has no power to do

Hey, don't worry; we are just taxing the negative externalities of your existence. This is an authoritarian dream, and it's why cash has a big target on it. Got a fine? Deduct it. Putting people on the take gives government signif

How do you insulate yourself while engaging them? I have a similar problem, close people who are imho thoroughly insulated, and that's the real issue; the insulation. It's not an accident or organic, it's induced. The informa

It's a good doc, check it out. All taxes: no. Tarrifs for example are... excellent ethical and thoroughly constitutional.. Otherwise country X can just attack with slave labor. Inalienable rights aren't called that because they ca

Lets assume the 16th was ratified (it wasnt, but set that aside). One might ask the IRS Comissioner where the law is, plenty of IRS agents have tried: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNNeVu8wUak It's also a rather obvi

I'll take sales tax over income tax; it's unconstutional in more than one way and an astounding waste of resources. RIP Aaron Russo.

Yea, lets just give up on the whole personal responsibility and free speech/movement thing... gov's mandating medical procedures is always just fine. Line up. Right? Anyway.... why rely on a (no kidding) fake study? Data please. E

Where are the FL excess death stats?

by jakeogh 6y ago
NP. Regarding your last point, my understanding is the pneumonia deaths are on the same pdf because they are end game deaths from getting sick. Likely with one of the flu's. The COVID-19 death stats on the other hand, are inflated: ht

Na. It's not against the rules, and it would be too much work for the mods if it was. Just point it out, and/or use the buttons. It's also a great source of prediction/assumption data... atleast for non-throwaway accts.

"about externalities" hence asking if (you now) support socialized medicine. Again, I dont need to make the connection. It's obvious isnt it? "pointing a gun at people is an apt parallel" parallel to what? Not weari

Eradicating it? Really? It's crazy valuable, our response made it more so. It's only getting easier to engineer viruses. "some benefit" So do helmets. And banning smoking as you mentioned, kinda. And mandatory exercise.

The hardest problems to solve are deliberate problems. Where solving it results is large financial loss for the people that profit from the problem. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDSDdwN2Xcg Getting discussio

The excess death stats are accessible to us all. What's the non-COVID-19 pneumonia # for 2019-2020 so far? It's nonsensical to expect everyone to agree, those that want a mask, should use one for viruses. This is like pretending t

The virus is in the same class as some common colds. It's not "going away". If people are concerned about it they should use a real mask designed to filter viruses[1]. Instead, the population is being conditioned to force med
