Social media platforms were created by illegitimate government agencies on the taxpayer's dimes in order to further social engineer said taxpayers.

Same as "free" "vaccines" as paid for by the taxpayers that are being slow kill depopulated by the very DEATHVAX that they have been socially engineered to uptake.

I've been saying for years - if everyone just stopped paying their taxes, we'd quickly find our leaders more than willing to become actual representatives for us. Taxation without representation is illegal. Why on earth are we continuing to prop up these criminals? (Well, fear, of course.)

Property tax is also abusive. You build a house on your land, you pay sales tX on everything you buy to build it. The the guvmnt then wants you to pay them for the "privilege" of building said home for the rest of your life. You don't own it, the state owns it. And you.

So if you are not in “public office” then you are not subject to the self employment tax!

With respect to the taxation subject, this Gary North article informs my strategy:

Self Employment Taxes Research

[Items in brackets are my commentary.]

Title 26 Subtitle A Chapter 2 - Tax on Self-Employment Income

Code Section 1401 - Rate of tax

(a) Old-age, survivors, and disability insurance

In addition to other taxes, there shall be imposed for each taxable year, on the self-employment income of every individual, a tax equal to 12.4 percent of the amount of the self-employment income for such taxable year.

Code Section 1402 - Definitions

(b) The term “self-employment income” means the net earnings from self-employment derived by an individual during any taxable year ...

(a) The term “net earnings from self-employment” means the gross income derived by an individual from any trade or business carried on by such individual ...

(c) The term “trade or business”, when used with reference to self-employment income or net earnings from self-employment, shall have the same meaning as when used in section 162 ...

[While the term "trade or business" is used in section 162, it is not explicitly defined there; we have to look elsewhere for this definition.]

Title 26 Subtitle F Chapter 79 - Definitions

Code Section 7701 - Definitions

(a) When used in this title, where not otherwise distinctly expressed or manifestly incompatible with the intent thereof—

(26) The term "trade or business" includes the performance of the functions of a public office.

[And that's it, that's all it says. That is the only definition of "trade or business." So if you are not performing the functions of a public office, isn't your self-employment income from any trade or business zero???]

If we focus on the word "includes" in the definition of "trade or business", you can find in several Supreme Court cases (examples below) how this word should be interpreted:

"[T]he verb 'includes' imports a general class, some of whose particular instances are those specified in the definition."

Helvering v Morgan's Inc, 293 US 121 126 fn. 1 (1934)

"[I]ncluding ... connotes simply an illustrative application of the general principle."

Federal Land Bank of St. Paul v Bismark Lumber Co. 314 US 95, 62 S.Ct. 1 U.S. (1941)

Plus, from the Treasury Department:

"The terms 'includes and including' do not exclude things not enumerated which are in the same general class." [If you reverse the double-negative: the term 'includes' only includes things not specifically listed which are in the same general class.]

[So, unless your "trade or business" is in the same general class as performing the functions of a public office, then again, isn't your gross income from any "trade or business" zero???]

While any tax is crazy, if that number was about 10% it would be much more reasonable. 25%+ yikes.

Everyone in the US has lived under taxation and it is all they know. Since this is all they know they will not rebel.
