RE: Yes, You Are a Slave! The Good News Is We Have the Secret, And We Are Winning.
Usually they will just garnish your wages, someone in prison can't pay their back taxes. You won't be killed for not paying your taxes. If you try to attack a police officer they may defend themselves but tax evasion in America is not a capital offense, sorry, that's just not how it works. Your hyperbole bothers me, do you think that's really a good rhetorical device?
It's funny, whenever I question something you say then it's "trolling". You posting 5 times a day things like
" ATTN: All “Pragmatists” “Let’s All Just Get Along” Types. THIS IS WHAT YOU FAIL TO GRASP. FUCKING. READ. THIS."
Not trolling, got it.
Read what I wrote again. Yes. You will. If you resist, you will.
If you resist being robbed. Read my comment in reply to your comment above.
It’s not hyperbole. That’s the thing.
Claiming ownership on another’s body is slavery.
Nope, no one gets killed in the US for nonpayment of taxes, nobody, it is just not a capital offense. By "resist" do you mean "physically attack a police officer"? Your whole argument is based on that premise yet no one is killed for not paying their taxes because not paying taxes is not a capital offence. Find me a case in the US of someone being executed for tax evasion.
neither of our definitions defined it as that. If you feel that you are enslaved because you have to file a form with the government that says you make less than 6 figures abroad so that you don't have to pay any US taxes then you can always simply renounce your citizenship. It can be done in less than 90 seconds.
Can a slave make a declaration and then no longer be beholden to their master?
By “resist” I mean, defend oneself from being extorted with physical force.
Incorrect. You have to apply and pay a fee, because in the eyes of the law, we don’t own ourselves. The state does.
It's fasinating how some create a split between the initial action of the state threatening and extorting you (initiating violence) and the follow up action the state takes (which are all violence), then turn it completely around as if you are the initiator of the violence when you defend yourself or are disobedient, as if you have obey someone that has got orders to violate you some more.
It's pretty frustrating/mind-boggling. The programmers have done their job well.
I am going to need a "yes" or "no" on whether that involves physically assaulting the police officer serving a valid arrest warrant.
That's it. They don't say anything about a fee, it's done only in person, you don't "have to apply"

The answer to your meme is clear from the definition it's <100%.

Done trying to explain this to you man. You can’t seem to research something for more than 30 seconds, and seem to feel that euphemism makes theft and slavery, not theft and slavery.
Well Graham, that was not easy to find, kudos, that didn't take 30 seconds, what page of search results was it on? I didn't say there was not a fee, I said the state department didn't mention one. so let's have a look:
So you object to being charged a fee to process the paperwork? Should the American taxpayer pay to process your renunciation paperwork? Paying to process your own paperwork makes you a slave? I think theft and slavery are well understood and clearly defined terms and that you intentionally misuse them for political reasons.
Extortion is not theft, with extortion you get something in return, what do you get in return with theft? What do you get in return for paying extortion?
What does the word "wholly" mean?
Why should I have to even make a statement or pay any fee for moving my body out of the US?
You are missing the bigger picture here, and just keep moving the goalposts.
Like I said, I’m done engaging now. Is there a fee for that ;)
because there is a lot of paperwork involved if you choose to do that for some reason, a reason to do so would be if you were making over $100,000 and didn't ever again want to enjoy the protections and privileges given to citizens and if you are making over $100,000 a year then you could easily afford the processing fee. It is a one time fee. should all that paperwork be done for you for free? From a voluntarism prospective why should everyone else be forced to pay to process someone else's renunciation?The phone company and cable company often charge cancellation fees for early termination, does that make you their slave?
