REVISED 3-20-05
THE ATTACHED PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION TO
CONTROL SPENDING, TAXATION, AND FINANCIAL COERCION BY ALL FORMS OF
GOVERNMENT IS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:
1) IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE AUTHOR THAT THIS WRITING IS BASED ON MANY
WRITINGS AND THOUGHTS ESTABLISHED BY OTHERS AND THERE IS NO
INTENTION TO LAY CLAIM TO ANY ORIGINAL THOUGHT OR WRITING ON BEHALF
OF THE AUTHOR.
2) GOVERNMENT ONLY HAS A DELEGATED AUTHORITY TO COLLECT TAXES. THE
RIGHT TO IMPOSE LIMITS ON TAXATION IS SELF-EVIDENT.
3) IT IS AGAIN AFFIRMED THAT WHEN GOVERNMENT EXCEEDS ITS PROPER
PURPOSE OF PROTECTING ITS CITIZENS RIGHTS THE PEOPLE HAVE THE RIGHT
AND RESPONSIBILITY “TO ALTER OR ABOLISH IT.”
4) ECOMOMIC FREEDOM IS A VITAL PART OF TOTAL PERSONAL FREEDOM.
WITHOUT ECOMOMIC FREEDOM THIER CAN BE NO POLITICAL LIBERTY. THE
LOSS OF ECONOMIC FREEDOM EVENTUALLY LEADS TO THE LOSS OF CIVIL
LIBERTIES.
5) WHEN GOVERNMENT IS ALLOWED TO EXCESSIVELY TAX THE POPULACE, THE
POPULACE IS PLACED AT THE MERCY OF GOVERNMENT SPENDING TO
PROVIDE FOR THEM THAT WHICH THEY WOULD HAVE PROVIDED FOR
THEMSELVES HAD THEY NOT BEEN EXCESSIVELY TAXED, INCLUDING
PERSONAL SAVINGS, PRIVATE PHILANTHROPY, JOB CREATION, CULTURAL
ACTIVITIES, SUPPORT FOR THE ARTS, ETC. THIS ULTIMATELY INCREASES
GOVERNMENT CONTROL OVER THE CULTURE OF THE SOCIETY RESTRICTING
ITS FREEDOM AND NATURAL DEVELOPMENT.
6) THE GOVERNMENT HAS DEMONSTRATED THAT WITHOUT LEGAL RESTRAINT IT
IS UNABLE TO CONTROL SPENDING AND LIMIT LEVELS OF TAXATION
7) ACTION IS REQUIRED TO PREVENT UNRESTRAINED GROWTH OF BUDGET
DEFICITS AND GOVERNMENT SPENDING WHICH THREATENS NATIONAL AND
PERSONAL SAVINGS AND DEPRESSES ECONOMIC GROWTH.
8) TO PRESERVE FREEDOM AND INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY, THE GOVERNMENT’S
ABILITY TO TAX THE POPULACE MUST BE LIMITED.
9) GOVERNMENT MUST BE RESTRAINED THRU THE CONSTITUTION AND A
VIGILANT POPULATION.
10) A KEY GOAL OF A FREE SOCIETY IS TO PROVIDE AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE
MEMBERS OF THE SOCIETY ARE ENCOURAGED TO ACHIEVE THEIR FULL
POTENTIAL WITHOUT UNDUE INTERFERENCE OR DEPENDENCE ON THE WILL
OF THE GOVERNMENT OR ITS ELECTED OR APPOINTED OFFICIALS.
11) IN ORDER TO PROMOTE DOMESTIC TRANQUILTY EACH MEMBER OF THE
POPULACE SHALL BE ASSURED THAT EACH MEMBER IS BEING TAXED FAIRLY,
AND THAT MEMBERS OF SOCIETY ARE TIED TOGETHER ECONOMICALLY TO
PROMOTE AND SUPPORT EACH MEMBER TO ACHIEVE TO THIER FULL
POTENTIAL.
12) AS MEMBERS OF A FREE SOCIETY, EACH MEMBER HAS A RIGHT TO ACQUIRE
PROPERTY FOR THEIR BENEFIT AND ENJOYMENT.
13) THE POPULACE SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO CREATE WEALTH IN AN OPEN
SYSTEM BASED SOLELY ON MERIT WITHOUT BUREACRATIC AND
GOVERNMENTAL PRIVILAGES AND INTERFERENCES.
14) EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENJOY THE
BENEFITS OF THEIR LABOR WITHOUT BEING UNFAIRLY OR EXCESSIVELY
TAXED.
15) EACH MEMBER OF SOCIETY SHOULD BE ASSURED THE OPPORTUNITY TO
SECURE FOR THEMSELVES A LEVEL OF FINANCIAL INCOME ADEQUATE TO
PROVIDE FOR THE NECESSITIES OF LIFE.
16) THE NET INCOME AFTER TAXES SHOULD BE FREE TO BE SPENT, SAVED, OR
USED AS DESIRED BY THE PERSON EARNING THE INCOME, WITHIN THE LIMITS
OF THE LAW WITHOUT INCURRING AN ADDITIONAL TAX BURDEN DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY.
17) TAXES ON CORPORATIONS AND BUSINESSES ARE AN INDIRECT TAX ON THOSE
PURCHASING THE PRODUCTS, MERCHANDISE, OR SERVICE.
18) NO MEMBER OF SOCIETY SHOULD PAY MORE THAN HALF OF THEIR TOTAL
ANNUAL INCOME IN ANY FORM OF TAX.
19) A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM IS ACKNOWLEDGED AS THE ONLY
LOGICAL ECONOMIC SYSTEM FOR A FREE PEOPLE.
20) THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM
BENEFITS ALL THROUGH A GENERALLY HIGHER STANDARD OF LIVING BY
ALLOWING INDIVIDUALS TO SEEK THEIR OWN INTERESTS BY FULL FILLING THE
GENERAL INTERESTS.
21) A FREE ECONOMIC SYSTEM, AS OPPOSED TO A SYSTEM THAT IS BASED ON
INTRUSIVE REGULATING POLICIES IS CRUCIAL TO THE FUTURE AND THE
WEALTH OF THE POPULACE AND THE NATION.
22) AS EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE SHALL HAVE EQUAL RIGHTS UNDER THE
LAW, IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE HAS
DIFFERING TALENTS, SKILLS, ABILITIES, AND INTERESTS WHICH WILL MEAN IN A
FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM SOME WILL HAVE HIGHER AND SOME
WILL HAVE LOWER INCOMES AND LEVELS OF WEALTH, YET EACH MEMBER
MUST BE FREE AND ENCOURAGED TO IMPROVE THEIR ECONOMIC CONDITION
TO THE GREATEST EXTENT POSSIBLE WITHIN THE LAW.
23) IN A FREE SOCIETY, VOLUNTARY ACTIONS ARE PREFERRED OVER ANY FORM
OF ACTION BASED ON COERCION. COERCIVE REGULATIONS BY GOVERNMENT
DISRUPTS THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC
SYSTEM, WITH GENERALLY HARMFUL CONSEQUENCES FOR THE POPULACE.
24) GOVERNMENT HAS USED TAXATION TO INFLUENCE THE SPENDING OF THE
POPULACE, THERBY DISRUPTING THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE
ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM.
25) WHEN GOVERNMENT INCURS DEBT THAT REMOVES CAPITAL FROM THE
PRIVATE SECTOR, IT DISRUPTS THE ABILITY OF A FREE ENTERPRISE
ECONOMIC SYSTEM TO FUNCTION EFFECTIVELY.
26) GOVERNMENT DEBT PLACES NATIONAL SECURITY AT RISK BY FOREIGN
ENTITIES CONTOLLING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF UNITED STATES SECURITIES.
27) THE CURRENT AND PROJECTED INTEREST PAID ON GOVERNMENT DEBT
DEPRIVES CURRENT AND FUTURE GENERATIONS OF FULL BENEFIT OF THE
TAXES PAID.
28) THE OCCURRENCE OF INTEREST ON GOVERNMENT DEBT IS AN EXCESSIVE
BURDEN ON FUTURE GENERATIONS. AS THOMAS JEFFERSON WROTE “WE MAY
CONSIDER EACH GENERATION A DISTINCT NATION, WITH A RIGHT…TO BIND
THEMSELVES, BUT NONE TO BIND THE SUCCEEDING GENERATION.”
29) WHEN GOVERNMENT REGULATES WAGES AND PRICES OF LABOR IT DISRUPTS
THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM,
INCLUDING DISPROPORTIONATELY BARRING YOUNG AND INEXPERIENCED
WORKERS FROM THE JOB MARKETS, AND SPREADING UNEMPLOYMENT.
30) THE CURRENT UNEMPLOYMENT SYSTEM IS IMPOSED AS A TAX ON PROFITS
AND CAPITAL, AND DISRUPTS THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE
ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM AND HAS THE EFFECT OF LIMITING THE
FORMATION OF CAPITAL THRU PROFITS, WHICH WOULD ASSIST IN REDUCING
THE OVERALL UNEMPLOYMENT RATE.
31) A CONTIBUTING FACTOR IN INCREASES IN GOVERNMENT DEFICITS AND
SPENDING STEMS FROM LONG-TERM GROWTH IN GOVERNMENT ENTITLEMENT
PROGRAMS SUCH AS THE CURRENT MEDICAID, MEDICARE AND SOCIAL
SECURITY SYSTEMS.
32) BY IMPOSING A TAX ON THE POPULATION AND EMPLOYERS TO SUPPORT THE
CURRENT GOVERNMENT ADMINISTERED SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM, THE
POPULATION AND EMPLOYERS ARE DEPRIVED OF A CORRESPONDING
FREEDOM TO CHOOSE OTHER FORMS OF RETIREMENT ARRANGEMENTS. THE
CURRENT SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM IS DEPENDENT ON ONE GENERATION TO
SUPPORT A PRIOR GENERATION, AND IS CONTRARY TO THE WRITING OF
THOMAS JEFFERSON WHEN HE WROTE “WE MAY CONSIDER EACH
GENERATION A DISTINCT NATION, WITH A RIGHT…TO BIND THEMSELVES, BUT
NONE TO BIND THE SUCCEEDING GENERATION.”
33) IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT CONTROL OVER A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC
SYSTEM BY THE GOVERNMENT BE RESTRICTED DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FOR
ABUSES AND MALFEASANCE BY THE POWER GOVERNMENT REPRESENTS.
34) THE TAXING STRUCTURE SHOULD BE RESPONSIVE TO CHANGING ECONOMIC
CONDITIONS WITHOUT DEPENDING ON POLITICAL ACTION.
35) TAXES AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF TAX REVENUES SHOULD NOT BE POLITICAL
ISSUES, BUT RATHER STIPULATED BY LAW.
36) EACH MEMBER OF SOCIETY SHOULD BE ABLE TO EXPECT THE SAME LEVEL OF
GOVERNMENT SERVICES REGARDLESS OF INCOME LEVEL.
37) BY LIMITING THE TAX REVENUES THAT EACH LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT IS
ALLOWED, THE GOVERNMENTS AT ALL LEVELS WILL BE PLACED IN THE ROLE
OF INCREASING THE EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE USE OF LIMITED TAX
REVENUES, THEREBY ALLOWING INCREASED BENEFIT TO THE POPULACE FOR
THE AMOUNT OF TAX REVENUES IMPOSED.
38) THE FEDERALLY ELECTED OFFICIALS SHOULD RECEIVE TIMELY, DIRECT, AND
PERSONAL FEEDBACK AS TO THE ECONOMIC HEALTH OF THE COUNTRY.
39) EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE SHOULD HAVE FEEDBACK ON THEIR
ECONOMIC STANDING RELATIVE TO THE REST OF THE POPULACE.
40) THE ECONOMIC SOLVENCY OF THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE PROTECTED TO
THE GREATEST EXTENT POSSIBLE.

BENEVOLENT GIFT.
B) CURRENT 401K, INDIVIDUAL RETIREMENT ACCOUNTS, ROTH INDIVIDUAL

WITHDRAWN AT ANY TIME AND IN ANY AMOUNT. THE AMOUNT
WITHDRAWN THAT HAD NOT BEEN PREVIOUSLY TAXED SHALL BE
INCLUDED AS INCOME AND THE BALANCES INCLUDED IN DETERMINING
PERSONAL NET FINANCIAL WORTH IN SECTION IV-A. ANY OTHER FORM OF
DEFERRED COMPENSATION INCLUDING INHERITANCES OR OTHER FORMS

THE ASSESSED TAX SHALL BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DOMESTIC
CORPORATION OR BUSINESS. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT HALF OF THE
AMOUNT TO BE DISTRIBUTED TO FOREIGNERS, FOREIGN
CORPORATIONS, AND FOREIGN BUSINESSES BE WITHHELD FOR
PAYMENT OF THIS TAX. FOR EXAMPLE IF $100,000 WERE TO BE PAID TO
A FOREIGNER, FOREIGN CORPORATION, OR FOREIGN BUSINESS, THEN
AN ACTUAL PAYMENT OF $50,000 WOULD BE DISTRIBUTED WITH THE
REMAINING $50,000 BEING PAID AS THE ASSESSED TAX UNDER THIS
SECTION.

DISTRIBUTION OF ANY INCOME AND INCOME IN KIND FROM A FOREIGN
OR DOMESTIC CORPORATION OR BUSINESS TO A MEMBER OF THE
TAXING POPULATION SHALL BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MEMBER

THE ATTACHED PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION TO
CONTROL SPENDING, TAXATION, AND FINANCIAL COERCION BY ALL FORMS OF
GOVERNMENT IS BASED ON THE FOLLOWING:
41) IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED BY THE AUTHOR THAT THIS WRITING IS BASED ON MANY
WRITINGS AND THOUGHTS ESTABLISHED BY OTHERS AND THERE IS NO
INTENTION TO LAY CLAIM TO ANY ORIGINAL THOUGHT OR WRITING ON BEHALF
OF THE AUTHOR.
42) GOVERNMENT ONLY HAS A DELEGATED AUTHORITY TO COLLECT TAXES. THE

45) WHEN GOVERNMENT IS ALLOWED TO EXCESSIVELY TAX THE POPULACE, THE
POPULACE IS PLACED AT THE MERCY OF GOVERNMENT SPENDING TO
PROVIDE FOR THEM THAT WHICH THEY WOULD HAVE PROVIDED FOR
THEMSELVES HAD THEY NOT BEEN EXCESSIVELY TAXED, INCLUDING
PERSONAL SAVINGS, PRIVATE PHILANTHROPY, JOB CREATION, CULTURAL
ACTIVITIES, SUPPORT FOR THE ARTS, ETC. THIS ULTIMATELY INCREASES
GOVERNMENT CONTROL OVER THE CULTURE OF THE SOCIETY RESTRICTING
ITS FREEDOM AND NATURAL DEVELOPMENT.
46) THE GOVERNMENT HAS DEMONSTRATED THAT WITHOUT LEGAL RESTRAINT IT
IS UNABLE TO CONTROL SPENDING AND LIMIT LEVELS OF TAXATION
47) ACTION IS REQUIRED TO PREVENT UNRESTRAINED GROWTH OF BUDGET
DEFICITS AND GOVERNMENT SPENDING WHICH THREATENS NATIONAL AND
PERSONAL SAVINGS AND DEPRESSES ECONOMIC GROWTH.
48) TO PRESERVE FREEDOM AND INDIVIDUAL LIBERTY, THE GOVERNMENT’S
ABILITY TO TAX THE POPULACE MUST BE LIMITED.
49) GOVERNMENT MUST BE RESTRAINED THRU THE CONSTITUTION AND A
VIGILANT POPULATION.
50) A KEY GOAL OF A FREE SOCIETY IS TO PROVIDE AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE
MEMBERS OF THE SOCIETY ARE ENCOURAGED TO ACHIEVE THEIR FULL
POTENTIAL WITHOUT UNDUE INTERFERENCE OR DEPENDENCE ON THE WILL
OF THE GOVERNMENT OR ITS ELECTED OR APPOINTED OFFICIALS.
51) IN ORDER TO PROMOTE DOMESTIC TRANQUILTY EACH MEMBER OF THE
POPULACE SHALL BE ASSURED THAT EACH MEMBER IS BEING TAXED FAIRLY,
AND THAT MEMBERS OF SOCIETY ARE TIED TOGETHER ECONOMICALLY TO
PROMOTE AND SUPPORT EACH MEMBER TO ACHIEVE TO THIER FULL
POTENTIAL.
52) AS MEMBERS OF A FREE SOCIETY, EACH MEMBER HAS A RIGHT TO ACQUIRE
PROPERTY FOR THEIR BENEFIT AND ENJOYMENT.
53) THE POPULACE SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO CREATE WEALTH IN AN OPEN
SYSTEM BASED SOLELY ON MERIT WITHOUT BUREACRATIC AND
GOVERNMENTAL PRIVILAGES AND INTERFERENCES.
54) EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENJOY THE
BENEFITS OF THEIR LABOR WITHOUT BEING UNFAIRLY OR EXCESSIVELY
TAXED.
55) EACH MEMBER OF SOCIETY SHOULD BE ASSURED THE OPPORTUNITY TO
SECURE FOR THEMSELVES A LEVEL OF FINANCIAL INCOME ADEQUATE TO
PROVIDE FOR THE NECESSITIES OF LIFE.
56) THE NET INCOME AFTER TAXES SHOULD BE FREE TO BE SPENT, SAVED, OR
USED AS DESIRED BY THE PERSON EARNING THE INCOME, WITHIN THE LIMITS
OF THE LAW WITHOUT INCURRING AN ADDITIONAL TAX BURDEN DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY.
57) TAXES ON CORPORATIONS AND BUSINESSES ARE AN INDIRECT TAX ON THOSE
PURCHASING THE PRODUCTS, MERCHANDISE, OR SERVICE.
58) NO MEMBER OF SOCIETY SHOULD PAY MORE THAN HALF OF THEIR TOTAL
ANNUAL INCOME IN ANY FORM OF TAX.
59) A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM IS ACKNOWLEDGED AS THE ONLY
LOGICAL ECONOMIC SYSTEM FOR A FREE PEOPLE.
60) THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM
BENEFITS ALL THROUGH A GENERALLY HIGHER STANDARD OF LIVING BY
ALLOWING INDIVIDUALS TO SEEK THEIR OWN INTERESTS BY FULL FILLING THE
GENERAL INTERESTS.
61) A FREE ECONOMIC SYSTEM, AS OPPOSED TO A SYSTEM THAT IS BASED ON
INTRUSIVE REGULATING POLICIES IS CRUCIAL TO THE FUTURE AND THE
WEALTH OF THE POPULACE AND THE NATION.
62) AS EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE SHALL HAVE EQUAL RIGHTS UNDER THE
LAW, IT IS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE HAS
DIFFERING TALENTS, SKILLS, ABILITIES, AND INTERESTS WHICH WILL MEAN IN A
FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM SOME WILL HAVE HIGHER AND SOME
WILL HAVE LOWER INCOMES AND LEVELS OF WEALTH, YET EACH MEMBER
MUST BE FREE AND ENCOURAGED TO IMPROVE THEIR ECONOMIC CONDITION
TO THE GREATEST EXTENT POSSIBLE WITHIN THE LAW.
63) IN A FREE SOCIETY, VOLUNTARY ACTIONS ARE PREFERRED OVER ANY FORM
OF ACTION BASED ON COERCION. COERCIVE REGULATIONS BY GOVERNMENT
DISRUPTS THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC
SYSTEM, WITH GENERALLY HARMFUL CONSEQUENCES FOR THE POPULACE.
64) GOVERNMENT HAS USED TAXATION TO INFLUENCE THE SPENDING OF THE
POPULACE, THERBY DISRUPTING THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE
ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM.
65) WHEN GOVERNMENT INCURS DEBT THAT REMOVES CAPITAL FROM THE
PRIVATE SECTOR, IT DISRUPTS THE ABILITY OF A FREE ENTERPRISE
ECONOMIC SYSTEM TO FUNCTION EFFECTIVELY.
66) GOVERNMENT DEBT PLACES NATIONAL SECURITY AT RISK BY FOREIGN
ENTITIES CONTOLLING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF UNITED STATES SECURITIES.
67) THE CURRENT AND PROJECTED INTEREST PAID ON GOVERNMENT DEBT
DEPRIVES CURRENT AND FUTURE GENERATIONS OF FULL BENEFIT OF THE
TAXES PAID.
68) THE OCCURRENCE OF INTEREST ON GOVERNMENT DEBT IS AN EXCESSIVE
BURDEN ON FUTURE GENERATIONS. AS THOMAS JEFFERSON WROTE “WE MAY
CONSIDER EACH GENERATION A DISTINCT NATION, WITH A RIGHT…TO BIND
THEMSELVES, BUT NONE TO BIND THE SUCCEEDING GENERATION.”
69) WHEN GOVERNMENT REGULATES WAGES AND PRICES OF LABOR IT DISRUPTS
THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM,
INCLUDING DISPROPORTIONATELY BARRING YOUNG AND INEXPERIENCED
WORKERS FROM THE JOB MARKETS, AND SPREADING UNEMPLOYMENT.
70) THE CURRENT UNEMPLOYMENT SYSTEM IS IMPOSED AS A TAX ON PROFITS
AND CAPITAL, AND DISRUPTS THE NATURAL OPERATION OF A FREE
ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC SYSTEM AND HAS THE EFFECT OF LIMITING THE
FORMATION OF CAPITAL THRU PROFITS, WHICH WOULD ASSIST IN REDUCING
THE OVERALL UNEMPLOYMENT RATE.
71) A CONTIBUTING FACTOR IN INCREASES IN GOVERNMENT DEFICITS AND
SPENDING STEMS FROM LONG-TERM GROWTH IN GOVERNMENT ENTITLEMENT
PROGRAMS SUCH AS THE CURRENT MEDICAID, MEDICARE AND SOCIAL
SECURITY SYSTEMS.
72) BY IMPOSING A TAX ON THE POPULATION AND EMPLOYERS TO SUPPORT THE
CURRENT GOVERNMENT ADMINISTERED SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM, THE
POPULATION AND EMPLOYERS ARE DEPRIVED OF A CORRESPONDING
FREEDOM TO CHOOSE OTHER FORMS OF RETIREMENT ARRANGEMENTS. THE
CURRENT SOCIAL SECURITY SYSTEM IS DEPENDENT ON ONE GENERATION TO
SUPPORT A PRIOR GENERATION, AND IS CONTRARY TO THE WRITING OF
THOMAS JEFFERSON WHEN HE WROTE “WE MAY CONSIDER EACH
GENERATION A DISTINCT NATION, WITH A RIGHT…TO BIND THEMSELVES, BUT
NONE TO BIND THE SUCCEEDING GENERATION.”
73) IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT CONTROL OVER A FREE ENTERPRISE ECONOMIC
SYSTEM BY THE GOVERNMENT BE RESTRICTED DUE TO THE POTENTIAL FOR
ABUSES AND MALFEASANCE BY THE POWER GOVERNMENT REPRESENTS.
74) THE TAXING STRUCTURE SHOULD BE RESPONSIVE TO CHANGING ECONOMIC
CONDITIONS WITHOUT DEPENDING ON POLITICAL ACTION.
75) TAXES AND THE DISTRIBUTION OF TAX REVENUES SHOULD NOT BE POLITICAL
ISSUES, BUT RATHER STIPULATED BY LAW.
76) EACH MEMBER OF SOCIETY SHOULD BE ABLE TO EXPECT THE SAME LEVEL OF
GOVERNMENT SERVICES REGARDLESS OF INCOME LEVEL.
77) BY LIMITING THE TAX REVENUES THAT EACH LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT IS
ALLOWED, THE GOVERNMENTS AT ALL LEVELS WILL BE PLACED IN THE ROLE
OF INCREASING THE EFFICIENT AND EFFECTIVE USE OF LIMITED TAX
REVENUES, THEREBY ALLOWING INCREASED BENEFIT TO THE POPULACE FOR
THE AMOUNT OF TAX REVENUES IMPOSED.
78) THE FEDERALLY ELECTED OFFICIALS SHOULD RECEIVE TIMELY, DIRECT, AND
PERSONAL FEEDBACK AS TO THE ECONOMIC HEALTH OF THE COUNTRY.
79) EACH MEMBER OF THE POPULACE SHOULD HAVE FEEDBACK ON THEIR
ECONOMIC STANDING RELATIVE TO THE REST OF THE POPULACE.
80) THE ECONOMIC SOLVENCY OF THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE PROTECTED TO
THE GREATEST EXTENT POSSIBLE.

REMAINING $50,000 BEING PAID AS THE ASSESSED TAX UNDER THIS
SECTION.

DISTRIBUTION OF ANY INCOME AND INCOME IN KIND FROM A FOREIGN
