How serious are you about liberty?

 However, what if I asked a question where an affirmative answer did not include the immediate possibility of death? What if I asked the question - Are you willing to quit paying taxes?

Fear is the food of tyrants.

As I watch the world turn, I have noticed that people are more apt to take up arms and kill people - many times fellow countrymen - much quicker than they are to withdraw their participation in the finance of their oppressors. To me, this is backwards.

The first step of any movement to resist a state should be to quit financing it. Do you hold that violent resistance should be resorted to first?

Are you willing to quit paying your taxes?

How serious are you about liberty, really?

Or, do you still have faith in the political process?

As many of you already know, John B. Wells, long-time Saturday Night Host of Coast-to-Coast AM, was let go, by C2C/Clear Channel - you can read more on this here:  http://thecommonsenseshow.com/2014/02/06/john-b-wells-fired-for-being-too-popular-and-truthful-an-exclusive-interview/

Anyway, the BEST interviews he has done, so far, on his GREAT new show, "Caravan to Midnight" are Episodes 4, 11, and 12 (IMHO):

Episode 4, with Ty Bollinger: 

Episode 12, with Gary Yantis: 

Episode 11, with Mike Adams:

I think if Thomas Jefferson, or, really ANY of the Founders of this country, were to return, somehow, to see what has become of this country - they would be so "out of their element" - so far removed, from what they remembered as being "reality" back in their time (in the late 1700's to early 1800's) - that they would be shocked, and deeply, deeply saddened, at the choices Americans have made, during the interim between their time, and our time, today.  They would quickly learn, that the International Central Bankers, in the 'City' of London, primarily the Rothschilds (but also these American newcomers, the Rockefellers) have not only not gone anywhere - but, have re-captured America, on Dec. 23rd, 1913, with the passage of the "Federal" "Reserve" Act.  Too bad we don't have someone like Thomas Jefferson around today, to properly instruct us, on how to take our country back.  We still have his thoughts, writings - legacy, though - and we can look to Iceland, for modern-day inspiration.  Now, Americans just need to realize, that we do NOT need a violent, bloody revolution, such as the one that was fought in 1776.  We simply need to make radically different choices, in our daily lives - we need to "be the change" that we wish to see in the world.

Knowledge of the many arenas in which “they” seek to control you, toward THEIR OWN AGENDA and goals, AT YOUR EXPENSE, isn’t enough. YOU MUST ~ ACT ~ UPON WHAT you know. Hence, the following list of ~

POSSIBLE Individual Solutions

1) Quit your TBTF (“Too-Big-To-Fail”) Banking/Corporate or government job.
2) Stay away from the military. Why be cannon-fodder for THEIR N.W.O.?
3) Bank at a local credit union! Why bank at a TBTF (“Too-Big-To-Fail”) Bank, such as those that received a CRONY BANKER BAILOUT (from the “Fed”) in late 2008, which Obama authorized with his signature?
4) Get out, and/or stay out, of DEBT!
5) USE CASH (or personal checks) AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. Avoid using credit, debit, and customer loyalty cards.
6) VOTE WITH YOUR DOLLARS! (What do you support, with your time, money, energy, and attention?) Hint: STOP BUYING FROM MULTINATIONAL CORPORATIONS.
7) Trade your FRN’s (“Federal” “Reserve” Notes) for SILVER BULLION.
8) CUT BACK ON OIL AND GAS CONSUMPTION! (Many oil companies are owned by Bankers) 
9) Buy USED, locally, or online, if necessary, such as on etsy.com – Buy from etsy.com sellers who ship within the U.S. It keeps your $$ in either the local economy, or, at least, within the larger U.S. economy.
10)Buy MADE IN USA, when buying NEW items, if you want jobs to return to the US.  (If Americans begin buying MADE IN USA ONLY, guess where manufacturing jobs will move to?)
11)Buy ORGANIC food! Support your local Organic food store or Co-op! Whole, organically-grown foods are best. LOCALLY-sourced, is ideal. Support the true HEROES of organic food production (on the right side, of the following poster: http://www.cornucopia.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/prop37-poster3.jpeg)
12)Take a high-quality daily multi-vitamin (such as Carlson’s, NOW brand, Stop Aging Now (SAN), or Mercola.com)
13)Contact your "Representatives" on critical issues: such as “END THE FED!” (I would ONLY contact them on this ONE issue. Otherwise, IGNORE the politicians. They don’t represent you, and haven’t for a LONG, LONG time).
14)Re-read the 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It isn’t about hunting! It’s about government tyranny, and protecting yourself from it.
15)THINK for yourself. TURN OFF the IDIOT-BOX (the TV), OR THROW IT AWAY! 
16)Read a book. Like, NONE DARE CALL IT CONSPIRACY, by Gary Allen, or TRAGEDY AND HOPE, A HISTORY OF THE WORLD IN OUR TIME, by Prof. Carroll Quigley, or,  THE GLOBALIZATION OF POVERTY AND THE NEW WORLD ORDER, by Prof. Michel Chossudovsky
17)Question the KLEPTOCRACY. QUESTION all ‘authority’ (Big Business + Big Government, Big Religion, Big Media, Big Agribiz (Monsanto), Big Pharma, etc).
18)Pray or meditate – reduce your stress! (Stress weakens the auto-immune system, opening up the body to free radical attack).
19)Listen to soothing classical, jazz, ambient or other music you thoroughly enjoy!
20)BOYCOTT – learn this concept well, and EMPLOY IT – against those 1) enslaving, or 2) poisoning you!
21)Buy a high-quality water filter or filtration system.

22)IF YOU STILL VOTE, VOTE FOR A "THIRD" PARTY, or INDEPENDENT CANDIDATE (ONLY).  The so-called "two-party" system is a joke, in case you hadn't figured that out (yet).   

There, now you have 22 (TWENTY-TWO) possible, individual SOLUTIONS, that you or anyone, can begin using TODAY! SPREAD THE WORD!

It is completely wrong to stop paying your taxes. You signed up for them when you became a citizen of the country you owe taxes to.

Don't misunderstand. The first thing you need to do is determine why your taxes are your taxes. If they are your taxes because you accept them to be, or if you accept some Government agent's word that they are your taxes, then they ARE your taxes, because you accepted them as your taxes. If they are yours, the only honorable thing to do is to pay them if you are able.

When the time comes that you have determined that some taxes are NOT your taxes, and that you are NOT going to accept some Government agency's evaluation that they are your taxes, and that maybe the Government in question is not really your Government in the first place, THEN is the time to start thinking about not paying "your" taxes, 'cause they ain't yours in the first place. So, why would you pay some taxes that aren't yours?!
