Reform of the Day

December 8, 2010, 8:33 am

Why is it that taxpayers seem to be the one group that never has standing?  No one wants the milch cow mouthing off, I suppose.  How about we change the law to say that any taxpayer has standing in court on any issue that affects government spending.  Too broad?  Well, I'll narrow that when they narrow their interpretation of the commerce clause.

    Our career politicians have become a ruling class. We have no need of Kings or Queens and their Royal Courts. We have our own ruling class of elites who are above the laws that govern us commoners.

    Thomas Jefferson saw it coming, "Experience hath shewn, that even under the best forms of government those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny."

    And he gave us the remedy,"For a people who are free, and who mean to remain so, a well-organized and armed militia is their best security."

    what we need is a taxpayers union.

    the top 1% of payers pay 42% of tax. let's organize.

    what would that be, 1.5-2 million people.

    it's quite doable.

    i wonder how the feds would feel about organized labor then...

    "Well, I’ll narrow that when they narrow their interpretation of the commerce clause."
