Income Tax Terrorism

Income tax is a tax on intelligence and productivity which is why it is so loved by the Left. It is regressive,redistributive,punitive,egalitarian,Socialistic and profoundly immoral.If we need any tax at all it should be levied on a rational basis and it should not be motivated by discredited 20th century Socialist dogma.

Taxation has rightly been called the tool of tyranny and is a form of slavery forcing the productive to support the idle and shiftless.Workers are effectively slaves to the non workers.

Spare a thought for these hapless taxed drones many of whom have to file their own tax returns and are confronted by what amounts to a tome of inpenetrable jargon and bureaucratese designed by its very opaqueness to intimidate. (The Campaign for Plain English has clearly not penetrated to the inner recesses of the Inland Revenue)Non compliance leads to hefty fines of £100 a month and possibly £60 a day and an eventual jail sentence. Tax collectors have been given extraodinary invasive powers to enter people's homes, intimidate and threaten. A sign on the back of a van sums it up: "fight organised crime: Abolish the Inland Revenue".
