Quote from: 15 April @ 06:04
But do you understand air power and tanks

There is much debate over if the United States will see a second Civil War, especially with the tense 2024 election between Donald Trump and Joe Biden approaching. Many believe that if Trump loses, the Republicans or the Right will rebel and cause a second American civil war, one that many believe they will win. But can conservatives actually win a civil war? Who would REALLY win a civil war in the US? Despite what many within right-wing circles seem to believe, the right is at a massive disadvantage. This why the right can't win a 2nd civil war.

Work-space to Compose / Money and its value
« Last post by Dale Eastman on April 14, 2024, 01:16:41 PM »
Way too many of you are delusional fools. You believe un-truths as truths because you are not smart enough to think about and analyze what you have just had presented to you.

Unlike most of you, I do think about and analyze what has been presented to me.

What was presented to me when I was in Sixth grade was $9.00 week in return for my services delivering a local County newspaper to about 60 customers in the small town where I lived.

That's nine single green pieces of paper with "FEDERAL RESERVE NOTE" printed on their faces. Those nine green papers stored the value of my 7.5 hours of labor. At that time the value of my labor was 36 candy bars of a certain type I enjoyed. I learned and knew that money is a measure and of store value.

Liars in banking and liars in government don't want that definition to be used. It lays bare their crimes against humanity. That definition might make people question the value of their money and why is it decreasing?

Questions like this one I asked a person who presumed to educate me about banking: "If I stuffed $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress ten years ago, why are they not worth as much today as when I earned them?"

I was answered: "That’s called inflation"

This answer admitted that the value of $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress LOST value. This answer admitted that If my labor value stored in $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress LOST value, then some of the purchasing power of the value of my labor stored in those FRN's was stolen from me

I asked, "What actions, by whom, took the purchasing power of the value of my labor stored in those FRN's?"

That question ended the discussion regarding "inflation" and its actual effect on the value of money.

Misc. / What Statute
« Last post by Dale Eastman on April 14, 2024, 06:27:57 AM »
What statute in the Internal Revenue Code, using clear and unequivocal language as required by the Supreme Court, makes a private Citizen liable for subtitle A - income taxes on his or her domestically earned compensation for labor?

SCOTUS has said:
   In the interpretation of statutes levying taxes it is the established rule not to extend their provisions, by implication, beyond the clear import of the language used, or to enlarge their operations so as to embrace matters not specifically pointed out. In case of doubt they are construed most strongly against the government, and in favor of the citizen." GOULD v. GOULD, 245 U.S. 151 (1917).

 SCOTUS has said:
... [T]he well-settled rule ... the citizen is exempt from taxation unless the same is imposed by clear and unequivocal language, and that where the construction of a tax law is doubtful, the doubt is to be resolved in favor of those upon whom the tax is sought to be laid... SPRECKELS SUGAR REFINING CO. v. MCCLAIN, 192 U.S. 397 (1904)

SCOTUS has said:
If it is law, it will be found in our books; if it is not to be found there, it is not law.
Boyd v. United States, 116 U.S. 616, 627 (1886)

It has been my experience that delusional fools do NOT like their posted foolishness being openly questioned.

Quote from: OP on 11 April @ 1228
Greetings and Hello, Ladies, Gentlemen, and Votards of All Politics!!!

The provably-lying PK Simon has blocked me.

I speculate he did this because he didn't like my actually proving he was a liar. On 8 April @ 13:41 Liar Simon claimed: "I answered every question you asked."

I then uploaded a post containing the six questions he ignored along with the dates-times of the original posts containing these questions.

On 27 March @ 0747 I originally asked:
"If I stuffed $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress ten years ago, why are they not worth as much today as when I earned them?"

That question was placed in front of Simple Simon four times before he addressed it.

On 1 April @ 18:38 He finally answered: "That’s called inflation"

His answer admitted that the value of $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress LOST value.
His answer also admitted that If my labor value stored in $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress LOST value, then some of the purchasing power of the value of my labor stored in those FRN's was stolen from me

On 2 April @ 10:43 I asked this question: What causes this "INFLATION"?
In reviewing my question I realized I needed to be more specific with my question.
On 7 April @ 16:18 I then asked, "What actions, by whom, took the purchasing power of the value of my labor stored in those FRN's?"

Simple Simon ignored the store of value issue and ignored the loss of value issue.

Way too many of you are delusional fools. You believe un-truths as truths because you are not smart enough to think about and analyze what you have just had presented to you.

Unlike most of you, I do think about and analyze what has been presented to me.

A specific example was provided during my incarceration in DAY JAIL, Also known as public school. The specific example is these words:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed

Deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed
Many of you will recognize those words from the text of The U.S. Declaration of Independence.

Larken Rose eloquently observed:

There are two basic ways in which people can interact: by mutual agreement, or by one
person using threats or violence to force his will upon another.

The first can be labeled “consent”– both sides willingly and voluntarily agreeing to what is to be done. The second can be labeled “governing” – one person controlling another. Since these two – consent and governing – are opposites, the concept of “consent of the governed” is a contradiction. If there is mutual consent, it is not “government”; if there is governing, there is no consent.

In order for a person to consent (agree to something), don't they need to be given a choice?

Slave-masters and slave-owners are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the enslaved.

When were the slaves given a choice to consent to their enslavement?
When were you given a choice to consent to being governed?

I told you that I will be publicly archiving this discussion on my website. I often peruse such saved discussions to remind myself of missed points, be the points deliberately ignored or simply overlooked. In re-reading the discussion I'm reminded that a question I asked was not adequately answered. To your credit you didn't ignore the question.

I asked: ⇉ If I stuffed $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress ten years ago, why are they not worth as much today as when I earned them?

You answered: ➽ That’s called inflation

Your answer admitted that the value of $4000 worth of Federal Reserve Notes in my mattress LOST value.

Quote from: 8 April @ 1327
Dale, I get it.

You’re super full of yourself.
Quote from: 8 April @ 1341
I answered every question you asked.

Your response has been to claim I didn’t, using odd symbols and claiming you’re screenshotting and posting this somewhere else, as if that’s some sort of dark warning.

I couldn’t care less.

The problem is that you know nothing about the subject.

When I give answers, you don’t know enough to recognize that they *are* answers.

You don’t know enough to know that there aren’t economic facts, there are economic theories.

There are theories of inflation, some of which I think are nonsense (including what you apparently subscribe to, but don’t realize is just one of many theories).

You may not want to screenshot this stuff.

It’s going to look like a cave person telling a modern person that his flashlight is sorcery, and telling the modern person “I’m writing this down on my cave wall, so everyone knows how little you understand about sorcery”.

➽ Saying that money happens to be a store of value doesn’t mean that’s the definition of it.

Your statement of your opinion is noted.

5 April @ 1507
➽ I didn’t claim money was NOT a “store of value”.

You made this claim by very strong implication. I will cede the truth of your claim that you didn't directly claim money was NOT a “store of value”.

You didn't bother to make this claim until after I challenged your implication THREE times. I did so: 4 April @ 0802; 5 April @ 0708; & 5 April @ 0958. I copy-pasted YOUR words in context where you implied this claim On 4 April @ 0802 & 5 April @ 0708 . Do I need to repeat this a third time?

5 April @ 1506
➽ I’ve [...] given a definition of money which is unique to money.

I'll be back in a moment. I'm checking that claim for validity.

Not including this post, the word "money" has been used 70 times in this discussion.

27 March @ 1150 I posted the 28th, 29th, & 30th use of the word:
𝟙. What is "MONEY"?
𝟚. I REJECT this claim. "MONEY" has NOT been defined and agreed to.
𝟛. I don't. "MONEY" has NOT been defined and agreed to.

I did find three of your uses of the word that almost could pass as partial definitions of the word.

27 March @ 0810
money ALWAYS enters the system as [...] accounting entries on a bank’s books.

Didn't define the word.

2 April @ 2011
We use money as a medium to arbitrate the differences in the values of those different goods and services.

Didn't define the word either.

3 April @ 0835
Money is a tax credit which can be used to settle tax debts and all other lawful debts.

Didn't define the word either.

One can use water to wash a car. ⇇ Listing its use does not define what water is.
Quote from: 6 April @ 0847
Dale, money *is* a tax credit.

*of a type* which can be used to settle tax debts and all lawful debts.

That describes what money *is*

* tax credit
* legal tender

Boom.

It doesn’t matter what you think money SHOULD be.

Thats what money is.

Maybe things would go better if, rather than going on three day misunderstandings of what I said, you spent less time trying to tell me what I said, and more time trying to understand what I said, and asking what I meant if you think I haven’t been clear.

Dale, I answered your question about the definition of money days ago.

Since you’re so fond of filling space with words, and screenshotting, I’ll let you go back and find it.

I answered your question about “store of value”, also. Thats not a definition of money. Many things “store value”. That doesn’t make them money.

I also answered, like a week ago, WHY “store of value” is a bad definition of money. A store of value is “better” if it appreciates in value. We do NOT want money to do that.

I explained why we don’t want that last week. Since you screenshot everything, you can go back and look that answer up.

This is all stuff I answered days or weeks ago, and you’re back again, ponderously asking the same questions.

Your obsession with repeating other’s words and displaying screenshots really does keep you from following what others say.

𝟘𝟘𝟘𝟚 Admit or deny that with those six words you denied that money is a store of value.

https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/burden-of-proof
The burden of proof lies with someone who is making a claim, and is not upon anyone else to disprove. The inability, or disinclination, to disprove a claim does not render that claim valid, nor give it any credence whatsoever.
