If you think the US federal income tax is taking a bite out of you paycheck wait until you see how much the global tax on salaries is. And if you happen to use the word "queer" and a homosexual reports you to the global authorities for a hate crime, see what happens. No right to freedom of speech, no right to the assistance of counsel, no right to a trial by jury, no right to cross examine your accuser. Those are all part of the Bill of Rights which the global authorities don't have to recognize. Of course, they will have long since confiscated all of the weapons (no Second Amendment) so resistance or trying to organize a revolution against the tyranny of being ruled by foriegners will be futile. We the People of the United States will be overruled by the rest of the world and, thank God, by then I'll be in my grave!
