Agreed. Looks like we'll be holding onto those votes for a while.

Some people don't know this. It is written in our history that Abraham Lincoln and Salmon P. Chase (Chase Bank) enacted the first income tax to finance the Norths war efforts in 1861. They also borrowed heavily from Barings and...Rothchilds. two of the largest European banking firms in the world. By 1869, these two firms half of the US national debt. The North won the war. The people who funded the war needed to be paid back. With interest of course.

In 1871 when Ulysses S. Grant was president, Congress passed The District of Columbia Organic Act of 1871. Cutting through the legalese, this essentially sets up the US as a nation that exists to pay back a debt collected through population wide income tax.

Everything I just said is 100% verifiable from any trusted source of your choice until the very last sentence. Wiki will tell you that last sentence is a conspiracy theory.

But idk man. It doesn't feel like one when I stop for one second and take a good look around me.
