    Why don't you watch the whole thing, fool. That thing about the tax laws is true. It's just most judges will nail you anyway because they're also afraid of the illuminati.

    For the exact same reason you wouldn't continue to use a plumber who made mistake after mistake, after mistake. You wouldn't trust them to do a good job.

    Corrupt judges afraid of ruling correctly is not convincing. You cite corruption to defend corruption.

    .... and then you get into fractional reserve lending WITH a fiat currency and it really gets meaningless and totalitarian.

    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.
    - -- The Buddha

    It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.

    I have always considered Fiat's to be junk.

    Fiat = Fix It Again Tony.
    Bush doubled the debt from 5 trillion to 10 trillion.
    Proving tax cuts work!

    Bush asked for and signed for the TARP money.
    The Republican senate leader backed Bush on this.

    Right. And most would have seen those things in Moore's flick and turned it off. Flashing up documents not signed by those he was saying they were signed by, etc.

    Now, either get off the thread, or watch the flick, you don't have enough information to give a truly educated discussion on this movie.

    The quote in the movie given for that one judge, was taken wildly out of context and misrepresented. I already showed you.

    As for your theory that the a vast conspiracy by the Illuminati has prevented tens of thousands of federal judges from making the "correct" ruling on income tax and the 16th amendment...........

    Uh-uhhh. Riiiiiiight.

    The fact the you're pimping this movie makes me not want to see the rest of it.

    this is not about a single quote from anyone. And people with no case always say things are out of context. The tax part is just part of the film. You should really get your head out of your ass.

    Okay then. You're right, it all must be nothing but lies and junk. Obviously it is only about educating the proles on how to opt out of their taxes.

    Like Damo said, it is worth watching through to the end. Either do so or reserve comment. You may be surprised. And for once in your life, just once, don't look at it through some sort of partisan filter.

    Watch it, or reserve comment. I'm interested in far more than the tax thing, as that truly is only about 10% of the point of the film. That's why I specifically included the link and asked for thoughts from those who have seen it. Not those who already know the whole thing is garbage and thus don't even need to bother watching it.

    We're still friends though.

    Yes. How dare the ignorant masses try to get out of the fascist bondage cypress seems to prefer.
