Precisely so. What this little tax ditty demonstrates is just how hopelessly enslaved we are. And to think that people both accept this degradation, and even clamor for more, even though they may not realize what it is they are asking for when they beg the government to make them safe, healthy, and well-fed... for "nothing".

The only thing I don't agree with is the part about "hopelessly".
I still have hope, arms, ammunition and will, and I will never bend or cower to the power of the state. Last year I paid no income taxes, and only purchased what was truly necessary (except my computer and internet service), and I plan on making each year better than the last at starving the state of my labor and funding.
If all people who thought as we did Blef, actually worked together on our common threads, we could starve the beast and force its position to either expose itself fully, via revolt, or the reaction to its perception of threat of revolt.
We can do this, we must do this, if not, people like you and I might as well die tomorrow, since without liberty life is not life, it is a prison sentence.
Each day longer that this goes on, the worse the costs will be, the longer the road to recovery, the more painful the personal sacrifice required to stop it.
