"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken

"...a plan to tax automobile drivers..."
Driver -- One employed in conducting a coach, carriage, wagon, or other vehicle... ~ Bouvier's Law Dictionary, 1914 ed., Pg. 940 [Emphasis and footnote added]
I am not a DRIVER since this Sovereign Man is not employed[1] and is not using the highway for business, or for profit.
________________________________________________________________________________
[1] Employed. Performing work under an employer-employee relationship. Term signifies both the act of doing a thing and the being under contract or orders to do it. ~ Black's Law Dictionary, Sixth Edition (c.1991), page 495
I hear what you're saying, but something tells me the Obama Administration won't be persuaded by that argument...
I do not consent to be a subject of the "Obama Administration", just like I didn't consent to be a subject of the "Bush Administration", just like I didn't consent to be a subject of the "Clinton Administration". Your masters may one day murder me, Michael Kleen, but nevertheless, I DO NOT CONSENT, I DO NOT CONSENT, I DO NOT CONSENT! Actus me invito factus, non est meus actus.
I propose we levy a tax on every word any politician speaks at federal, state and local levels of the criminal syndicate known as our "government".
