A. If you type in "Compare taxation between US and Nigeria," you'll find 7,940,000 articles on the subject on Google. Nigeria sounds a great deal like the US, but you'll have to do the exact search and decide for yourself. I have to leave the house right now. Good luck!

A. The only reason we must pay tax, is because the government was convinced by bankers in 1913 to create its money by using a debt-based monetary system, managed by the Federal Reserve Bank. In fact the IRS was created about the same time the Federal Reserve Act was passed, in Congress in the middle of the night around Christmas eve. The interest on the money created through public debt must be paid by tax revenues coming from the citizens pockets to pay the bankers and the buyers of government bonds and bills.

A. Do you know which Canadian Prime Minister is/was the most hated? *"trick" question* Can you tell me what the PST and GST of each province is (or which province(s) combine them?)? What do Manitobans call Saskatchewan (or rather, What did...)? no, most Canadians don't know the intimate details of the USA... ie: I know the answer to number 1, couldn't even begin to tell you anything close to what #2 is, #3: give me enough time, I could narrow it down and MAYBE get the answer right, new #4: never could guess in a million years and #5: I could get a fairly damn accurate guess... but give me enough time and I can tell you the name and location of every 50 state and a few other random/miscellaneous information... other than that, we don't… [cont.]

Taxation ONLY with Representation, a citizen's right?Nope,not always.?
Q. A large group of citizens of our country (in the thousands) were not allowed to elect senators,congressmen or the president for many years. However, all through those years they had to pay taxes in full. Eventually, they took this injustice to court, claiming that the raison d'etre of our revolution, which resulted in the birth of our nation, was the precept Taxation only w/Representation. The court ruled that this only applied to PREconstitutional times and therefore was invalid and unconstitutional. Bizarre,what? I guess life in these United States is always going to surprise you! (BTW,not one of these thousands of unrepresented but taxed citizens of the U.S. was a felon deprived of his rights as a punitive measure)

A. Good grief gabriella!! It must be very frustrating. You have brought up an interesting paradox and so far nobody has understood what you have said!! A large group of law abiding citizens (NOT felons,you dopes) had to pay taxes but did not have the right to elect any political representative . The court ruled that Taxation ONLY with Representation (a precept that our country was founded on) was anticonstitutional!! Doesn't anyone else see the supreme irony of this? Where and when did this happen? It is fascinating!
