How The Government Makes It Harder To ‘Keep On Truckin'

Before we get to this morning’s segment on The Captain's America: Third Watch with Matt Bruce, I wanted to expound a little bit on something we talked about on this morning’s show.We need to understand that everything we consume – everything that we buy when we go to the store, regardless of whether it's food, whether it's a product of another nature – it's brought to us by a truck.Trucks are essential. They go from point A to point B to point C to the endpoint; from the farm to the table, from the manufacturer to your house. So whenever the government – at whatever level, whether it's the federal government, state government, county government, township government – whenever they impose a tax on a trucker; whenever they impose a fee on a trucker; whenever they require more hoops to jump through, they're raising the cost of what you're consuming.And they normally tag these tax increases onto bills that do not represent the fact they're raising taxes, whether it’s on truckers or not. It'll be tagged onto a defense bill, be tagged on to a healthcare bill, be tagged onto an education bill, but no one ever comes out and says, “Hey, we're going to legislate a bill that raises the fees on truckers” or causes diesel fuel to cost more. No one would vote for it. It would be political suicide.When we talked this morning about this issue, I brought up a solution to this and it's something that's in my new book, Nullification: The Case for Decentralizing the Federal Government, available on Amazon – you can get it in Kindle version or you can get it in paperback.I hope you buy it and read it, and if you buy a paperback, you can send it on to your elected officials and say, “Why aren't you following this blueprint?”But I wanted to touch on that sneaky thing that the politicians do to raise prices; to impose taxes on all of us by third-party means.Then, this morning’s segment on The Captain America: Third Watch with Matt Bruce … Take Back Your MindThink For YourselfSupport Independent Journalism Get full access to Underground USA at www.undergroundusa.com/subscribe
