And then people started selling bad food, over hunting, overfishing, sell bad or fake products, build without any knowledge of how, cut hair without any knowledge, falsely claim to be a doctor a dentist or surgeon…. You get the idea

Even the indigenous tribes of Americas before the European invasion had governmening bodies, rules and regulations - deciding what tribal members could and could not do and enforcing those rules through physical punishment and/or banishment; the Vikings had governing councils and rules were strictly enforced - pagan, free-living, barbarians, but still “governed”, with rules and regulations; taxes and collection of same are thousands of years old. Yawn.

I still do not support your home being TAXED. You never own your home, the state does. Should you NOT pay your property taxes the STATE can sell your home to the highest bidder. There is just something inherently wrong with this!!!

Slowly the government is taking away rights telling us it’s good for us, but it just gives them more power. They no longer serve the people, they rule.

The legislative and judicial branches of our government have been quietly removing our freedoms over the last century, ignoring our Constitution and their jobs in the process! Time to clean the house, get rid of all the elected and appointed officials in our government and start anew!

The problem in this country isn't really government, it's corporations that use government to funnel massive amounts of money to themselves. If there wasn't so much money in politics it might not be so bad but we turned our government into a business, focused solely on making money instead of working for the people. When money is you're sole focus well-being comes second, or maybe third. Now we put the ultimate crooked corporate crook in charge and he's destroying or selling off the parts that don't enrich him. He does whatever he can to enrich his partners so that they work to enrich him too and we, the "employees" get shafted and it's all good as long as it doesn't come back to him.

and it was so much easier to defraud people because there was no way to make sure they are legit, like a permit issued by the govt, or a license issued by the govt denoting proper training in your field. not just some right wing nut job trying to defraud the public

We had smaller government who didn’t get involved in states’ affairs. Democrats like to have their hands in everything and I find that very unnecessary and disrespectful! We are not children! Republicans like smaller government! Reagan said it very well in a speech and Trump refers to the speech often and has done away with redundant offices in DC.

And the government should keep their hands out of the American peoples pocket. They take enough from us. They don’t need to take any more like property tax that should be gone. You don’t pay tax on your TV you bought every year.

Every bit of that is so true, except that it wasn't even 125 years ago. When I was a child I used to go fishing all the time without a license and with parents that didn't use a license, we hunted freely, we built whatever we needed on our own property, we never notified anyone of gun purchases could buy guns at auto parts stores. My Uncle started a business out of his house that progressed into the storefront that gave him a lifelong career. This is not possible today!

Yep there are laws against collecting rain water. You are allowed to collect it before it hits the ground but not after. So you cannot build a private reservoir on your own land.

125 years ago, there were little to no standards that protected the general public from: water born illnesses, over fishing, proper building codes, marriage fraud, diseases spread by untrained barbers, product safety requirements, and dangerous food handling. We are far from perfect today but have better standards and protections today. This is the definition of civilization. Don’t like it? Start your own country.

The Government, local and federal, never makes cuts in spending. That's why so many people want to work for the Government. They need a liveable wage with a pension that looks like something Bill Gates would get while tax payers lose their property unable to afford to pay the property taxes. Sales tax, Property tax, City tax, Look at all that money and they never have enough. What is the average pay of a worker that doesn't work for the City, State, or Government? What's the average pay for a worker that works for the City, State, Government. Big Difference.
