Just say NO! to Tax Addiction

By J. R. "Nobody" Graham

Candidate for Member; California State Board of Equalization; District 3

This information is provided by the candidate
Nobody explains the problem of Tax Addiction, how to recognize tax-crazed addicts, and how to protect your children from the ravages of Tax Addiction.
The worst affliction on planet earth is Tax Addiction. Tax Addiction enslaves the entire population of the planet to provide short-term political fixes to (often non-existent) social problems. Armies funded by Tax Addiction have killed more people, destroyed more crops, wiped out more businesses and wreaked more havoc than all other pestilences known to humanity.

There is no creature more dangerous to your life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness than a tax-crazed politician. Tax Addicts tend to hang out in gangs, telling lies and pretending they are okay. The most crazed will even try to tell you their addiction is good for you. Don't believe them.

"We need this tax. We need this bond. We need this program," they whine just like any addict when their addiction is threatened. One of their favorite lies is to say that their program has been "cut" when in reality they got more to spend on it than in previous years.

Like some addicts, Tax Addicts don't fund their own habits. Instead, they steal from those who work hard for a living, borrow from expected future funds, and use revenue bonds to force the next generation to fund their political excesses.

Have you ever heard of No Taxation Without Representation? Yet bonds do exactly that. Tax Addicts are in such denial of reality that they actually claim to be "helping the children" by passing huge debts on to helpless babes too young to vote.

A study of 456 Tax Addicts in Washington DC found that the longer they were in office, the worse their Tax Addiction became. Most start in small offices, spending only a few million a year, but as their lust for power grows, they move up the ladder to hard-core addiction, spending billions and sometimes even trillions of dollars on their wasteful habits.

Tax Addicts can often be found around schools, ballparks and redevelopment projects openly scamming the public to provide the fix they need. Beware, they are known to lie, cheat, and steal to fund their Tax Addiction.

Like most organized criminal gangs, Tax Addicts have their violent enforcers to eliminate opposition. These are well organized into national, state, regional and local gangs.

One international mob, called the IRS, is so blatant as to call those who want to keep their own money "tax cheats," and has been known to gun people down in their own homes for failure to give up their assets.

California's Tax Addiction Enforcement Mob is known as the Franchise Tax Board (FTB) and has been characterized as "worse than the IRS". This is the agency that will go after you if you don't file every paper required of you by all the other state tax & regulate agencies. They will use force to grab your assets to make you pay everything they want you to pay.

One scam the FTB helps enforce is the Department of Money Vampires (DMV) that makes hundreds of thousands of Californians wait in line every day, wasting millions of person-hours and sucking up billions of dollars. The lame excuse they use to justify all this waste and theft is that it makes driving safer. The truth is that it doesn't make driving any safer -- it just makes Tax Addiction easier.

The Board that controls the FTB, DMV and all the other tax & regulate agencies of California is the State Board of Equalization (so named, because it's real purpose is to make everybody equally poor, enslaved and oppressed).

As a peaceful Libertarian, I oppose terrorizing people, controlling people through force, stealing from people and businesses, lying to voters, and especially stealing from babies. That's why Libertarians are in the forefront of the fight against Tax Addiction.

I am running AGAINST the $tate Board of Equalization, because nobody should terrorize you and steal your stuff, especially our government.
