    The United states was meant to be an inheritance. A place owned by the citizens. It is true the founders didn’t want to pay taxes, what’s left out is they didn’t want any single living breathing individual paying taxes. The corporations were meant to foot the entire bill. This was changed during war time of WW2, illegally, and the corpractic state we currently reside under waz illegally founded. There is no income tax data prior to ww2, because it was illegal to tax individuals. Everything you earned was yours. Things weren’t perfect. There was a civil war fought over how imperfect the founding documents handled who gets the label of “free individual”, but one thing they got right, is taxes should be paid for entirely by corporations, as a founder specifically said they feared a generation would one day wake up on the soil fought and died over for them, and would own nothing, now in just the last 10 yrs we hear “in the future you will own nothing, and you will love it” pure capitalism is one of the problems, but if you remove it, you still have the people that corrupted it originally, and their oligarch family probably has more power now to more easily corrupt whatever potential system is created if this one is burned to ashes.

        Maybe you should do some of research rather than immediately labeling something “Brainrot shit of a q anon theory”. You sound like you’re a bot just parroting some nonsense. Do some personal research on how ww2 changed taxation in America, because this “brainrot shit” isn’t actually shit at all, but your comment sure is

        ps - in case you don’t know how to google, please go to taxfoundation.org maybe you’ll learn something
