Most people can work for a living, not simply collect a welfare check. Reston or Victoria want to pretend The United States is socialist and communist, but we are a Republic.

Charity should be lent, expecting repayment, to those who need to get back on their feet. NOT given to everyone (citizen, immigrant or alien, rich or poor) with their hand outstretched.

Money is simply printed by the government.

By not objecting, people allow the corruption.

Yes, who would believe?

Apparently everyone WANTS to pay taxes they don't owe? Me? I'm too scared NOT to pay, even though I don't owe them. Maybe some day I'll be brave enough to stop paying what I don't owe.

What law makes me liable? Not even the IRS will answer. So much for the IRS mission statement, "Provide America's taxpayers top quality service by helping them understand and meet their tax responsibilities and by applying the tax law with integrity and fairness to all."

Problem is, additional things are being taxed, while continuing taxes already in place. Half your salary goes to the government (federal, state, local) in the form of taxes and fees. Don't believe me? Start with income tax, property tax, gas tax ... don't forget bank fees.

Yet the conniving, scheming, manipulative, devious, cunning weasels passed unconstitutional tax codes anyway. The bastards!

So how did Bill Clinton skate? Because people were influenced by his charm. The American people would rather run on emotion than use their common sense. One of the most immoral people in our country was elected President twice, and the people let it happen! Hillary becoming President will prove God has left our country.

Half of our salaries go to taxes and fees.

Better? Examine the government and their programs. Seldom is anything they do better. And then, not much better than had they done nothing.

Our legislators have a way around their need of money ... they simply create a new law and attach a lot of unrelated pork to it. Yes, you socialist, I'm sure you would clamp down on big business ... un-American as that would be. But what does the unconstitutional method our legislators use to steal our money have to do with big business? A hundred years ago business paid 100% of taxes required by our government. Today only 20%, and the People get to pay 80%. Big government is killing us, not big business. The next time you hear of a company moving to your town or state because they get a tax break, make sure you ask how much your taxes will increase.

My child I support willingly. Thieves beware when entering my home. Politicians keep voting themselves raises, pet projects, and wars at our expense. Stop it! Follow the Constitution you swore to uphold.

"I swear by my life, and my love of it, that I will never live for the sake of another man, nor ask another to live for mine." Ayn Rand

About as un-American as you can get, yet this is what our government expects ... to tax us to death while we remain silent and calm. Complacency and apathy are destroying our Republic, and our government is assisting in that destruction, as surely as any terrorist.

I want to know the specific address of Anonymous in Reston, VA lives, so I can ask his local government to give me his land so I can build a mall on it.

People in NEED? Compassion? I am tired of supporting the lives of the lazy.

Why does the US need the UN? On the contrary, they need our money and troops. What a waste of lives and money. The US doesn't let other countries tell us what to do, and it is immoral to require other countries to give their CONSENT to what we (or the UN) think they should do.

I am opposed to world government, and the new world order of the UN. I will never consent, so our government will need to conquer (kill or imprison) me. To willing give up my rights, certainly those outlined in the Bill of Rights, would be un-American, if not unconstitutional.

Our Republic is losing its freedom to democracy right now! Tyranny is sweeping our federal government. Time is ripe for another revolution.

When the UN, or any agent (BATFE,FBI, etc.), comes to take my arms, I will make them steal it from my cold, dead hands. My hope is to take a dozen of them with me, because I will not surrender my arms willingly. BTW, the Patriot Act is unconstitutional and definitely NOT patriotic!

Our politicians want power and therefore steer us directly into the business of foreign nations. It is wrong, immoral and unconstitutional.

Freedom cannot be found in the safety of a harbor.

Having a 2 party system, republicans and democrats, is forced political unification, and against other parties. I will never vote republican nor democrat again, because they both drive our country to destruction. The UN trying to unify the world scares me terribly. We must get the US out of the UN. Just for starters, it wastes billions of dollars, and they want to take our guns.
