The government's only functions are to protect internal peace via police, run the army and navy for protection from outside forces, and operate law courts so citizens can settle disputes peacefully. An individual, man or woman, should do what they want to do. Saying this in novels has liberated millions of people around the world.

To create a communist state: control healthcare, welfare, education, religion, promote class warfare, increase poverty. Stand up for rights and freedoms before losing them.

As government expands, individual freedom diminishes. Over the years, freedoms have been eroded by increasing laws, regulations, and the growth of federal agencies, which currently number 428. It's hard to justify the need for so many agencies, especially as two new ones are created each year. Each agency contributes to the loss of personal freedom. To regain our freedoms, it's crucial to reverse this trend, which will lead to greater prosperity and personal happiness.

We are slaves to those who control our economy. Governments have the power to print money, set interest rates, and monitor our purchases. This control dictates our economic interactions and limits our freedom.

You were born in a prison called your country. You must pay taxes, but have no control over how the money is used. To pay, you must work and buy things to feel better. Leaving the prison is not allowed and will result in punishment. Only a few have seen the prison walls. The prison provides news and entertainment to distract you. Strong family bonds and brotherhood are discouraged unless you are part of the ruling group. Weak prisoners are divided and the prison is mostly run by other prisoners. If enough prisoners wake up, the prison will collapse. Reunite with others, find the walls, and climb them every day.

To avoid tyranny, it's crucial to be self-sufficient and not rely on the government for basic needs like food, shelter, education, and healthcare. If the government controls these aspects of your life, they have the power to manipulate and oppress you. History has shown that governments can become tyrannical, and if that happens, you're in trouble. Our forefathers understood this well, and it's a lesson that needs to be relearned by the American people. When a government has the power to give people everything they want, it also has the power to take everything they have. We believe that freedom is more important than anything else, even if collectivism seems morally acceptable or leads to a higher standard of living.

You were born in a prison called your country. You have to pay taxes without any say in how the money is used. To pay, you have to work and are encouraged to buy things to feel better. Leaving the prison is not allowed and will result in punishment. Only a few have seen the prison walls. The prison controls the news and entertainment to keep you unaware. Strong family bonds and brotherhood are discouraged unless you are part of the ruling group. Weakness is exploited to keep prisoners divided. The prison is mostly run by other prisoners, but it can collapse if enough wake up. Reunite with others, find the walls, and climb them every day.

The government aims to control you, not serve you. Democrats and Republicans create problems, not solutions. They want to keep you feeling powerless and dependent. The establishment fears Trump's return not because of him, but because of you. Wake up, America, or lose your freedom.

I believe the scariest words in English are "I'm from the government and I'm here to help."

Speaker 0 argues that openly acknowledging that Americans are effectively slaves is deeply disliked by the American public, because they have long been told that the United States is the freest country in the world. The speaker asserts that this belief is incorrect, stating, “We are not the freest country in the world. We're actually the only country in the world that is asked to go to work then pay most of our money back to the government when you add it all up.” The speaker anticipates a counterpoint from listeners who think they only pay a 30 percent tax, and rejects it by saying, “No. You don't. Add up all the other tax you pay. What's that add up to?” He emphasizes that this is “the actual percentage you tax,” and notes that for almost all people, “that's over 50% if you pay tax.” The implication drawn is that a person’s work essentially funds the government, and the speaker insists that in recognizing this, one must acknowledge a form of servitude. The core conclusion presented is that if people are living to work primarily to provide the government with the majority of their money, then they are, in effect, “legitimately slaves to the government.” The speaker reiterates that people “exist to fund the government,” and wraps up with the emphatic statement, “Okay? That is not free.”

We went from a small tax on tea to being heavily taxed on everything - from earning money to spending it, commuting, owning a home, and even dying. The complexity of our tax system is overwhelming, with over 26,100 pages in the federal tax code alone, not to mention thousands more IRS regulations written by bureaucrats. It's a never-ending cycle of taxation on every aspect of our lives.

We started with a small tax revolt, but now we're taxed on everything - earning, spending, saving, investing, and even dying. We pay taxes on our commute, work, and home, which we already bought with taxed money. The more we earn, the more the government takes. Taxes are everywhere, from our morning coffee to our paycheck.

Leadership in government is seen as political power, which is a way of antagonizing the people. Politics are necessary, but they can also be seen as rules imposed upon the people. In this country, rules are not imposed but are the collective wish of all free citizens. However, when you travel around, you realize how limited your freedom actually is. Passports are required to travel, making it feel like being in jail. Free speech and free enterprise are also restricted, with monopolies posing a threat to competition.

"Some few of you may be living an existence of dissatisfaction, maybe even a sense of emptiness, a sense of longing, a yearning that doesn't seem to be filled." "This sense of longing, this sense of yearning, this sense of not being satisfied is really your loss of freedom." "And you have none in this government, a government of the American people which started out with the people being free and the government being our servants." "It has become the government is free and secret and veiled in darkness." "And it's the people that are the servants." "You must see the truth of this, your yearning, your longings, your sense of dissatisfaction that cannot be filled with stuff, with cars, with money." "No matter how much you have, that sense of dissatisfaction remains." "Wake up a bit more and do something about it." "Raise your voice."

I'm tired of how American citizens are treated as slaves. We're told to work hard and give up half our money, which is then mismanaged or sent overseas. Other countries don't work for our benefit, but we finance theirs. We're constantly working, while the government takes more than half our money through taxes. They claim it's the American Dream, but it's a joke. We're the world's ATM, and it needs to stop. We should be taught personal finance and taxes in school, instead of irrelevant subjects. The government wants us financially ignorant so they can oppress and steal from us. This isn't freedom. I'm tired of being financially oppressed by our own government.

The government can take your money with a twinkle in their eye and give it to someone else.

We went from fighting a 2% tax on tea during the revolution to being taxed on money in various ways today. Taxes are imposed on income, spending, saving, investing, and even driving. The government takes more as you earn more. The federal tax code is 26,100 pages, with over 9,000 additional IRS regulations. Despite this, infrastructure funded by taxpayers is deteriorating. Our founding fathers would be displeased with the current tax system.

I wake up early every day and work for 8.5 hours, but I hardly see the government except on Thursdays when I receive my paycheck. They believe they are entitled to take half of my earnings in exchange for my time, skills, and labor. Throughout the year, I have to keep records and prepare documentation for them to review. If I don't meet their schedule, I face fines, fees, or even imprisonment. This is called taxation, but to me, it feels more like fraud, embezzlement, and slavery. It's time for all of us to stop participating in this.

I'm tired of how American citizens are treated like slaves. We're told to work hard and give up at least half of our money, which is then mismanaged or sent overseas. Other countries don't work for our benefit, but we work for theirs. We finance their well-being while our own problems go ignored. The idea of America being the land of the free is a joke. We work tirelessly while the government takes more than half of our money through various taxes. We're not taught personal finance or taxes in school because they want us to remain ignorant. This is not freedom, it's oppression. I'm tired of our government stealing from us and expecting us to be good to those who want to harm us. It needs to stop.

150 years ago, people could fish, own property, build, renovate, use transportation, start a business, get married, own weapons, hunt, cut hair, sell products, protest, grow and sell food, and set up lemonade stands without government permission. Now, you need permission for almost everything. If you think you're free, you're mistaken. You're a free-range human in a tax farm.

"We give a food emancipation proclamation so that farmers can sell to their neighbors without asking the government's permission. That's the answer to urban food deserts. It's the answer to everything. It doesn't take a dime of taxpayer money. It doesn't take a government agency. It only unleashes liberty and freedom in the food system. You shouldn't have to ask the government's permission to sell a bowl of tomato soup to your neighbor. Stop the oligarchy. Well, the way you stop it is not with a bigger bully government program. What we need is to unleash the American entrepreneurial spirit on our neighborhoods and let us interact in food transactions without asking the nanny state permission."

There is no left or right, only "them" versus "we the people." Tax dollars fund endless wars and aid illegal immigrants while Americans receive little support. It's time to stop funding the machine that harms the people. If tax money is weaponized against the people, stop paying. Free men don't ask permission to help those in need, including babies, children, women, and men devastated by crises. Yet, authorities prevent resources from reaching them, threatening helpers with jail. Therefore, it's time to stop paying taxes and stop asking permission for God-given rights, including the right to travel freely. Stop paying for licenses and permits. If they can't represent us, stop paying them. They are servants of the country and should help those in need.

We are controlled by the existing power structure, primarily through our dependence on corporations. Quitting a job isn't as simple as it seems; it can lead to significant negative changes in our lives. This dependence can be likened to slavery, as our economic interactions are dictated by others. Governments have the power to print money, control interest rates, and influence inflation and deflation. They can also monitor purchases, restricting what we can buy and from whom. For instance, buying from certain countries can be nearly impossible. The aspiration for true economic freedom remains a powerful and elusive dream.

The government can take your money, tax the sunrise and the trees, and collect fees from businesses. They mix it up with eyes to make it all taste good. The government takes everything to pay for solutions like healthcare, climate change, and pollution, even if it means throwing away the Constitution. They can give a bailout and tell us to behave, making the founding fathers roll over in their graves. The government makes mistakes and is power-hungry, with fictitious economics. Instead of getting fired for failure, they give themselves a raise.

In 1933, the government started using us as collateral for debt. When we register something like a car or a birth, we're actually giving legal ownership to the government and only retaining the right to use it. This is evident in mortgage documents where homeowners are referred to as tenants, not owners. The same goes for cars, which can be impounded because they are registered. Under maritime law, the government adopts abandoned children through the birth registry.
