We see this kind of thinking among many tax protester-tax denier types such as yourself, Lorne. Many of you people are delusional in thinking that you "know" something that the rest of us don't know, that you "see" things that the rest of us cannot see, that you "understand" things that the rest of us do not understand, that you have cognitive ability the rest of us do not have.lorne wrote:.....The restoration is happening right now, as we speak, the fiat system is collapsing. The clues are all around you. From White house rats jumping ship, the halting of foreclosures, people waking up, on and on. Can you not see it or are you in denial?
You are wrong.
Part of your problem is that you try to hard to connect those dots in ways that support your wish-dreams. Many of the dots you see actually are there, Lorne. We see the dots, too. They're real. But you are trying too hard.
"There is a revolution brewing in the country......." Those are not my words, or your words. They're the words of a leading commentator in the New York Times just two days ago. You don't "see" anything that the rest of us can't see, Lorne.
Lorne, if people like you spent less time huffing and puffing and preaching and, figuratively speaking, running around as though your hair is on fire, and more time learning some self-awareness, you would be happier people. You are unhappy, in part, because you do not understand yourself -- you do not understand your own motivation. You do not understand why you have the feelings you have.
And, Lorne, some of the dots you "see" are not real. You don't really "see" those dots -- though you strongly believe that you do. You "create" pseudo-realities in your own mind as a result of your desperate attempts to connect the "real dots" in ways in which they're not really connected.
For example, you hate the federal income tax system so much that you have falsely convinced yourself that the system is illegal, unconstitutional, misapplied, etc., etc. (just pick the adjective you like) and you eagerly swallow many nonsensical theories about the law regardless of their validity -- because you want so strongly to believe what you have brought yourself to believe.
You, like Irwin Schiff, and Peter Hendrickson, and Richard Simkanin, and Oscar Stilley, and Lindsey Springer, and others of like mentality, have gone over the edge. In your irrational desire to reshape the world as you believe it should be formed, you have cut some of the mental ties that hold normal people to an understanding of reality.
You have worked yourself into delusion.
