THE TOP TWO PERCENT: UnConstitutional Generation

By:  Resa LaRu Kirkland

Watching FOX news today, I again had to hear from Dems how the overwhelming percentage of Americans don’t want the Bush tax cuts continued on the wealthiest Americans, in other words, the top 2%.


Let’s assume that’s true. Let’s assume it is just the top two percent, and will not in any way affect anyone else on earth, despite the laws/patterns of history, economics, nature, and math. Let’s assume that the majority of Americans are that snarky, whiny, selfish, and childish that we just can’t handle anyone making one dollar more than we do, no matter how hard they work or how well-deserved it might be…or how secretly we wish it was us. Let’s assume the “Oh yeah?” attitude of the easily led Islammunists of the world really is deeply embedded in the majority of Americans.

Does that make it right?

Why have we yet to learn the cardinal rule, the mathematical pattern of history: what starts with one group never ends with that group?

When we OK the wrong thing against one person, one group, one demographic, we have sealed our own fate. It is a mathematical certainty, whether it takes one month or one century for it to reach us matters not; it WILL reach us.

There are reasons income tax is evil, all of them grounded in law. Let’s start with America, the law of man, and the Top Two Percent.

The laws regarding Income Tax, first declared in 1861 to pay for the Civil War, expired in 1871, then tried again in 1894, ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court, took final and permanent hold in 1913 under Woodrow Wilson. (CAVEAT: Note the “temporary tax” to pay for the Civil War. America may have gotten a temporary reprieve from the ungodly tax, but the addiction had been triggered. THE LESSON? Never trust a “temporary tax.” There is no such thing as temporary with the lucre possessed.)

Why?

Because Wilson the Wicked and his followers promised that less than the top one percent of Americans would have to pay, and don’t you just want to stick it to those rich SOB’s? Wilson had the first Democratic Congress in 18 years, and through arm-twisting and good old class warfare, he made Mammon (Aramaic for “riches”) our new God, and the law of the land its brutal enforcer. Had we stood our ground and said, “It’s just as wrong to tax my brother’s increase as it is to tax mine,” we would not have the increasingly unconstitutional and crippling taxes that have people overwhelmed, overburdened, and enraged. The 1% in Wilson’s reign quickly became the vast, vast majority, and it took only a very few years for income tax to become the chief source of income for the government.

And these are the lucre addicts we continue to trust and enable? It now takes the average American until JULY before he is working for himself. In spite of the laws against slavery and indentured servitude, the income tax gave politicians the right to live off the sweat of your brow. It created the slave state, at least for half the year. (And perpetual property tax negated another Constitutional favorite: the right to private property. We now rent our land from the state, even if it’s paid for in full.)

Which brings me to my next point: the Higher Law.

Let’s begin with the very first mention ever of the need for man to give a portion of what he creates with his talents, hands, heart, and back to someone other than himself: the Old Testament and the law of tithing.

Tithing is giving 10% of any increase in your flocks, herds, or substance back to He who gave you the earth, its contents, your talents, skills, health and free will to create or not create to your heart’s desire. It is an act of humility, an acknowledgment that all you have is because of Him, and He is the only one who has a right to ask for a portion back. After all, He is the founder of the feast; we are the tenders of the garden.

All throughout history the biggest indicator that a people were dealing with a wicked ruler was the demand that a man pay not based on what he spends (which is a fair tax, when reasonable, because you always have at least some control over it. Don’t want to pay that tax? Don’t buy that item, or buy as little of it as suits you.) but on what he earns, creates, or builds.

In other words, that wicked ruler, a mortal man, is in essence saying, “I am on par with God. You have what you have because of ME; therefore, you owe me a portion back.” And in classic mortal arrogance, it is ALWAYS and inevitably more than the 10% God Himself asks for. As Ray Stevens says, “If 10% is good enough for Jesus, why isn’t it good enough for Uncle Sam?”

If I remember my Sunday School correctly, doesn’t the Bible mention a thing or two about any mortal who elevates himself to God status? And isn’t the true tell of what a man believes what he does, NOT what he says? So by that logical sequencing, wouldn’t any man whose actions are those of seizing what belongs only to God, who in turn entrusts it to you, be an indication that he believes himself a god? And if God trusts us with our free will, shouldn’t we be suspicious of any mortal who doesn’t, who thinks he knows better and needs to govern over us, not on behalf of us?

Man has no right whatsoever to demand a portion back of what we make with our God-given talents, skills, ambition and hard work. It is a hallmark of pride and it’s various symptoms: sloth, greed, and lust. And God Himself declares it an undue burden on his people, one that the true holders of freedom—the individual—have an obligation to reject by vigilance, vote, and inevitably throughout history if we do not do these first two, by violence (war, which is the natural consequence when we forget vigilance and are slothful in voting).

Render unto Ceasar only what is rightfully Ceasar’s. If you are foolish enough to wind up with a Ceasar, your rendering will leave you rear-ended. That’s where the whole vigilance/voting thingy comes in.

The pattern of history has clearly shown what happens when we allow ourselves to be enslaved and subjugated by wicked leaders with a God-complex. But my concern now isn’t in the past, but the future, and what God Himself has said it holds.

Luke 21: 31-32: So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.


Verily I say unto you, this generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.

The above scripture serves a purpose. In Biblical speak, a generation is thought to mean 100 years. We are coming up on the 100 year anniversary of the ungodly income tax. As always, the biggest indicator of what the future holds lies in what has happened in this income tax generation.

So what does Luke say will happen in that final generation?

Luke 21: 23-26 indicates this: Great distress, fall by the sword, led away captive, Jerusalem trodden down by Gentiles, signs in the sun, moon, and stars, the earth in distress, as well as the sea and waves roaring, men’s hearts failing them, the powers of heaven shaken.

Within 5 years of the income tax, America experienced its first World War, followed by a Great distress (depression), another world war, unleashing of nuclear power that shook the powers of heaven, many falling by the sword, the restoration of Israel followed by the constant assault and siege of Jerusalem by Gentiles, exploration of space and more consciousness of its activities and clues, more earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, massive floods and volcanic explosions, the earth in upheaval, and the Political Castration of Americans that has us fearful of mere words, let alone actions.

Don’t tell me it’s just a coincidence that all of these horrors began after we allowed our leaders to claim the throne of God and steal His portion and then some. We have mocked and robbed God. That is what income tax does—mocks and robs God. There is only one way to right this wrong. But Obama’s not the man to do it.

And that law of the land which is constitutional, supporting the principle of freedom in maintaining rights and privileges, belongs to all mankind, and is justifiable before me.


Therefore, I the Lord, justify you, and your brethren of my church, in befriending that law which is the constitutional law of the land;


And as pertaining to law of man, whatsoever is more or less than this cometh of evil.


I, the Lord God, make you free, therefore you are free indeed; and the law also maketh you free.


Nevertheless, when the wicked rule, the people mourn. Doctrine and Covenants 98: 5-9 (Modern day revelation given to Mormon Prophet Joseph Smith)

Are ya mournin’ yet?

We are free, for God hath declared it. Let’s act like free men. Let’s not OK income taxes on anyone, not even the top two percent. Income taxes are simply wrong; they are enslavement, and since God has made us free, man has no right to take it from us. This country survived for over 100 years without income tax and overpaid lawyers commanding us. Get rid of them and we will be able to get rid of all unconstitutional taxes, beginning with income. Hold our leaders to our Constitutional laws. And ourselves.

Keep the faith, bros, in all things courage, and no substitute for VICTORY.
