Regarding Obama-Care and the Sixteenth Amendment
The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Declaration of Independence
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.
Cogito ergo sum
"I think, therefore I am."
Unalienable rights (natural rights or moral rights) are rights that were bestowed upon me by God, not by any government...and most certainly not by Barack Obama.
I neither have to choose nor not choose to pay taxes. If the government imprisons me for NOT paying taxes, then they do so because I did nothing (I took no action, I did nothing, I just existed - I did not make a conscience decision.)
However, if I exist (by being born), then the only thing that IS certain is death. Whether I choose TO live, or choose NOT to live, no action or decision I make affects the eventual outcome. I may CHOOSE to commit suicide to end my life early, or I may CHOOSE to take a life-saving drug to extend my life...but either way, I would be making a choice. But ALWAYS the outcome is death.
Dying is the ONLY thing one must do - paying taxes is not.
Ben was wrong. The only thing certain is death.
