  1. Let's bring the IRS in line with the law first on To Fight $5.2B In Identity Theft, IRS May Need To Change the Way You File Taxes · · Score: 0

    I think before we worry about this we should worry about all the people jailed for not paying "income" tax. I put quotes around the word because the IRS lies about the meaning of income as defined by the Internal Revenue code. Technically, the definition hasn't been in the code for decades, it was removed long before we had things like the Internet to search it with. What is the proper definition of income when it comes to Title 26, the Internal Revenue Code, you ask?

    It can be defined, at least partially, by the 4 words,"Foreigner's here, citizen's abroad." If a foreigner earns money in the US, at least part of that is income, and if an American citizen earns money from a foreign country, at least part of that is income. If an American earns money at a 9 to 5 job that is done here in America, NONE of that is income.

    You ask,"Where's my proof?" The proof is in the code, which is searchable online. It is not fun to read the Internal Revenue Code, but understanding it isn't hard, especially when you have the critical thinking skills of most Slashdotters.

    The government has lied to us all our lives, the 16th Amendment changed nothing, it is not an amendment of any sort. It's more like a weaselly worded smokescreen that the schoolteachers were then taught to lie about when they taught the school children about the US government. You think it's a coincidence that so few Americans can diagram a sentence? The 16th Amendment doesn't contradict any part of the Constitution that came before, it changed nothing.

    The NSA is nothing compared to the crime against Americans from a misuse of of tax laws by the IRS. The IRS doesn't actually have any authority to tax an American citizen directly, they can't even track us directly if we're not willing to use a social security number, and social security numbers aren't required by law, that's a lie too.

    Do the research, look at the code and see what you find.

    Sex isn't politically correct enough, they'd have to have a hook like protecting children or something.

  4. Re:No, It Won't on New Study Projects World Population of 11B by 2100 · · Score: 0

    If I'm not mistaken, poor people have kids so there's someone to care for them when they get old. So maybe the best solution for overpopulation is finding a way to guarantee that the elderly are cared for. the Japanese are working on robot care for the elderly and there's tons of other artifical intelligence projects being developed to do various things. Maybe that's the solution.

  5. Re:So everything is protected by a 4 digit passcod on Apple Will No Longer Unlock Most iPhones, iPads For Police · · Score: 0

    So what do you do as a job?

    I, um, break encryption for the police.

    Does it pay well?

    Minimum wage. All I do is enter 4-digit codes to guess the passcode.

  6. Re:they will defeat themselves on ISIS Bans Math and Social Studies For Children · · Score: 4, Insightful

    Actually, that's wrong. There's a difference between having faith in the actual God and pushing an agenda that you want God to support.

    God is the same yesterday, today and forever. Unfortunately, His worshippers like to attach labels to Him that aren't warranted.

  11. Re:illogical captain on Why Atheists Need Captain Kirk · · Score: 1

    I agree that most people don't think, but I disagree with pretty much everything else you say. I know you didn't mention Christianity, but Christianity has a logical and consistent framework, despite the fact that people disagree on various things.

    Most of the situation with atheists is the whole,"We've never encountered God, therefore He doesn't exist." But they don't allow for the possibility that the phenomena they're rejecting might simply be avoiding them because it's offended by them. Anyone who truly wants to know God has an encounter with Him. Period. It is only those that don't want to have an encounter that do not encounter Him.

    In a way, you made his point for him even as you disagreed. There's always going to be some level of abstraction somewhere. If it can be used to detect things, it's a sensory organ of some sort, though that would suggest just about any tool is a sensory organ of some sort.

    Good point, I'm so used to writers using bad math I didn't even notice it this time. They mean 1/3rd the amount, but it's more impressive to say 3 times less, which would be -2, technically. So, the study owes us some lithium, I guess.

    Exactly, like with the theory of evolution and intelligent design. If the same amount of time was put towards the proof of intelligent design as with the theory of evolution, the atheists wouldn't have a leg to stand on.

    Fuck slashdot karma, I'm more worried about the consequences of actual reality.

    I don't think people in cars do to pedestrians what they do to cyclists, which is pull out into an intersection when the bike is almost there. I don't understand that behavior, maybe they don't realize how fast a cyclist is going and think they can pull away before they catch up?

    Oh, and btw, great name, makes you sound like a frickin' genius when you have the word pus in your name. I have an excuse, since my last name is lterally Goatcher, samzenpus doesn't really sound legit unless you're foreign and didn't understand what you're getting into.
