Take things that don't belong to them.

People grumble and complain, but if you don't think the IRS is a law enforcement agency, ask Al Capone.

I hate the Antichrist.

I'm sorry, is this an attempt at humor, or prophecy?

Tax laws are just as valid as any other laws... and the IRS enforces them.

If you think taxes are too high, write your congressman. But if you don't obey the laws, you face the consequences.

Besides, it's only money -- one would think a Christian would have higher priorities.

I don't like the fruits of my neighbors' labors being taken from them in compulsory fashion and more than I like it for my own self and family; and I don't want to see our children saddled with yet another $1.25T in debt.

Well we did prior to 1909, but there are nearly two dozen countries currently that do not tax income: 23 Countries Without Income Tax (And How You can Emigrate To Them)

List of countries by tax rates - Wikipedia

lol. That list is nothing but tiny tax havens, Arab emirates, and Somalia. You couldn’t find a single large, first-world country?

What do you think the IRS does for a living? Sell aluminum siding?

nnovation-Killing Price Controls: The bill would institute government price-setting of prescription drugs which will lead to significantly less private investment in new cures. This would also limit seniors’ access to medicines and drastically harm pharmaceutical innovation, resulting in fewer new drugs and fewer generic drugs being developed.

Who is in favor of Americans continuing to pay many times more for their prescriptions than the rest of the world? Raise of hands?

How are you defining "cop"?

 

[Hammster]

How are you defining "cop"?

Like most people do. A police officer.

They aren’t cops.

They are law enforcement.

Whose job it is to enforce the law.

 

[Hammster]

Whose job it is to enforce the law.

It depends on the laws.

 

[TLK Valentine]

It depends on the laws.

These laws:

Tax Code, Regulations and Official Guidance | Internal Revenue Service

if you have a problem with them, I suggest you write your congressman.

You don't like debt? Ye gods, society is built on the concept. I will truly be astonished if you have never owed anyone anything.
