anyone that thinks a federal agency that is not the FBI should be running around the united states with military grade gear has some issues. If the BLM believed there would be armed citizens and a possible confrontation, they should have consulted with local law enforcement, not show up to an already tense situation and then make it worse.
I do not give two shits about Bundy or his ideals, I'm trying to illustrate that the government is and has been out of control. They continue to waste our money. There is no reason why my tax dollars are being used to fund state issues, in states that I do not occupy, do not or have never visited. Again, if Nevada want to protect fucking turtles let them do it. We now live in a country where something like 48% of the population is on some form of government subsidy, our debt is very close if it has not already outpaced our GDP, Have we reached 20 Trillion yet, I gave up keeping count..... How do people think that this is not an issue. The dollar will collapse, the fed will print more money, we will have massive inflation, and the country will be in the shitter.
It amazes me that the hot topics on this Bundy fuck are that he is a racist, and is guilty of tax evasion. How about going after the multi billion in IRS scams that illegals use to get money from the IRS.... I think they were averaging something like 17K a year per person exploiting this, in refunds exploiting the child tax credit. All because the IRS allows tax id numbers if you don't have a ssn.... They have known about this for years and wont change it.
There is a great news expose on this. It may have even been from a MSNBC reporter for all of you fox haters.
The only reason that I think this is a big deal, it brings attention to an entity that pretty much thinks it can do whatever the fuck it wants to these days. Last time I checked we are the UNITED STATES of America, not the Federation of America. I am big on state rights and personal liberties. You need states to keep the Fed in check, just like the people should keep the states in check. Currently, namely due to our fucked tax system, the states are beholden to the Fed because the Federal gov promises states funding, and at least 48% of the people are beholden to the Federal gov because they are getting some kind of subsidy. How is this not bad? How can anyone regardless of party affiliation and works, not be pissed about this? I just watched the IRS withdraw 55k out of my savings account on the 15th, that fucking sucks.... So we have a federal government that can bribe the states and the people to get and do what it wants when it wants. You see it all the time, the federal government threatening to cut state funding if the state does not comply with its wishes.
Before Federal taxes were implemented in the 40's I think, the states collected taxes and gave portions of that to the Federal government. The way it was intended to be.... The states control the Federal government and the people control the states. Not a fucking hard concept of checks and balances.
