Stop the argument authority from authority bullshit.
In terms of interpreting the constitution, there actually is a leviathan: the USSC. And above them, the State legislatures via amendment. There's nothing higher than an amendment in our system of laws.
You citing yourself doesn't amount to much legally. Since ours is a discussion of the law, legal standard matter as does legal authority. If you want to discuss say, objective moral truth or the will of God then your opinion would have as much weight as anyone else's. As there is no leviathan. There is in the law.
You may wish to believe that anything you imagine binds the courts and our laws. But neither your belief nor your imagination have any particular legal relevance.
My income is MY PROPERTY which I earned by working.
And your income is subject to taxation, by consent of the governed.
My ONLY responsibility towards the federal government is to pay for those activities which were SPECIFICALLY ENUMERATED.
Specifically enumerated....according to who? The founders themselves created the First Bank of the United States based on implied powers, in the very first session of congress. Are you going to tell us that you know the constitution better than the founder's themselves?
Good luck with that.
No explanation has been , nor can any be , provided explaining how they can tax my wages?
Obvious nonsense. The authority to tax is laid out in the constitution. Both the 'tax and spend' clause of the original document, and in the 16th amendment.
That you reject that authority doesn't mean it doesn't exist. That you ignore the explanation doesn't mean that the explanation doesn't exist. The world doesn't disappear just because you close your eyes.
