    It’s happening all across the once (relatively) free West. This speech by Trump is right on the money:
    ‘Donald Trump described the 2016 election as a make-or-break moment for the nation in a rousing speech delivered to supporters in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Thursday. “This is our moment of reckoning as a society and as a civilization itself,” Trump declared. “This is not simply another four-year election. This is a crossroads in the history of our civilization that will determine whether or not we the people reclaim control over our government.” “Our Independence Day is at hand, and it arrives finally on Nov. 8,” Trump told voters..’
    Either that, or revolution and bloodshed and this wabbit doesn’t much mind which.

      God Bless Trump – He’s a brave patriot who speaks right on – but does he really believe that winning one election will change things? Does he not realize that the Establishment will murder him if he wins?

      Like Julius Caesar – another famous and brave man who wanted to reform his government and country – He has been given the death sentence already by “The Senate” if he crosses the Rubicon to become supreme executive of the Republic.

      How will the assassination happen?

      It would be ironic if Trump is murdered in front of the statue of Abraham Lincoln.

      Then come the civil wars – I think wabbit and myself are in agreement – like the ancient Roman Republic, real reform can only come after the government, bureaucracy and nation have been cleared of traitors…

        Going off on a tangent here…
        Funny you mention JC, Ronbo. Another American blogger friend was against Trump because he feared that metaphorically (if not literally) Trump would make himself Emperor if he won the election.
        That gent has been very quiet online for several months now. As have a few others I know. Only guessing, but I think they’ve come to see that Trump is the only choice for anyone who goes into the polling booth with a working conscience.
        Four years ago Obama won because millions of Americans stayed home on election day. I wonder how they feel now about that choice. I wonder if ‘Well, I didn’t vote for him’ and ‘Hell, Romney wouldn’t have been that much better’ have kept them warm at night.

    A country with direct taxation has no freedom and therefore no freedom of speech.

    Here’s a theory maybe the Muslims have lent the West so much money, and one of the conditions, is we can’t critisize them.

    Robertv Karl Marx said the power to tax is the power to destroy. And what your saying is true in regards to a 501(c)3, the church becomes a charitable organisation, and can no longer say what it wants:

    If you read the third section, you aren’t allowed to influence legislation, or have anything to do with any political candidate, to get charitable status.

  5. Warren Tooley says:

    So that’s why the US has a $20 Trillion debt despite the amount of taxes people pay. So that’s why NZ’s debt has increased by $100 billion despite the amount of money people pay. Its never enough.

  6. Warren Tooley says:

    Its like a cancer in the sense that under a National government and a labour government either party can’t stop spending. Its like a cancer in the sense that some Republican presidents vowed to reduce spending but actually increased it like Richard Milhouse Nixon.
