Slavery implies involuntary servitude—a state of bondage;
the ownership of mankind as a chattel, or at least the control of
the labor and services of one man for the benefit of another, and
the absence of a legal right to the disposal of his own person,
property, and services.
Labor is property. It is the most valuable property to protect
because through it all other rights manifest in the People are realized
and enjoyed.
* Under the government’s own accounting rules in the tax
code as well as court decisions, the sale or conversion of one’s
personal labor into wages or salaries as property does not result
in any taxable income or a taxable event.
* There is no legal basis for mandatory payment of employment taxes
on wages or salaries.
* Income has been defined by the Supreme Court as being a federal
corporate tax on profit, and applies to federal corporations and
the officers of those corporation, but not individuals.
* For individuals, income taxes can only be legal if they are voluntary
and not compelled, which is to say that they are not taxes, but
donations.
Have you ever considered that being forced to pay income taxes
to the state on the basis of wage income constitutes slavery? It
may not be physical slavery but it constitutes financial slavery.
Merriam Webster defines slavery as follows:
slave 1: a person held in servitude as the chattel of another:
BONDMAN 2: one that is completely subservient to a dominating influence.[1][1]
slavery 1: DRUDGERY, TOIL 2: submission to a dominating influence
3 a: the state of a person who is a chattel of another b: the practice
of slaveholding.[2][2]
It then defines “servitude” as follows:
ser·vi·tude Pronunciation: 's&r-v&-"tüd,
-"tyüd
Function: noun
Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French, from Latin servitudo
slavery, from servus slave
Date: 15th century
1 : a condition in which one lacks liberty especially to determine
one's course of action or way of life
2 : a right by which something (as a piece of land) owned by one
person is subject to a specified use or enjoyment by another
From the above definition, you can see that servitude, or slavery,
encompasses not only surrendering control of one’s body and
time to another, but it also involves the right of use and beneficial
enjoyment of one’s property as well. Servitude is a condition
where we have been involuntarily deprived of liberty. Black’s
Law Dictionary, Sixth Edition, on page 1388 defines slavery as follows:
slavery: The condition of a slave; that civil relation in which
one man has absolute power over the life, fortune, and liberty of
another. The 13th Amendment abolished slavery.
slave: A person who is wholly subject to the will of another; one
who has no freedom of action, but whose person and services are
wholly under the control of another. One who is under the power
of a master, and who belongs to him; so that the master may sell
and dispose of his person, of his industry, and of his labor, without
his being able to do anything, have anything, or acquire anything,
but what must belong to his master. The 13th Amendment abolished
slavery.
