Morality and majority vote are not the same thing. But Beck thinks they are. And that’s where he reveals his statism and his socialism. Majority vote is the very basis of socialism. But true libertarians know that even 95 percent of a county can be wrong. And the important fight is to win the war in the hearts and minds of people with truth and actual engagement of the details, not sweeping things under the rug, arguing about slippery slopes, or playing clips of a handful of people. Beck does not realize he is a socialist. It is an unstated assumption of his that of course we should leave it up to the people. We’ve tried that, Glenn. When people can vote themselves your property, they will. The fundamental tenet of socialism is that whatever the people say is right. The fundamental tenet of libertarianism is that the initiation of force is wrong. By explicitly and continually arguing that we need to all make a decision together, Beck has shown himself to be a socialist at heart. It is almost as if he is saying, "Look, I would prefer freedom, but if the people vote for socialism, then that’s okay." Glenn, it is not okay. - Dr. Phil Maymin, Glenn Beck the Socialist, September 16, 2010

Beck, O’Reilly Call for More Taxation

By Kurt Nimmo, Infowars.com

In the video below, Glenn Beck and Bill O’Reilly call for more taxes on the American people. O’Reilly argues in favor of a national sales tax while Beck calls for a VAT or value added tax on all products.

Beck, who likes to call himself a libertarian, says the tax will go to pay off the national debt. He wants a constitutional amendment forcing his VAT on an already over-taxed people. O’Reilly says a constitutional amendment will never fly and he wants Congress to impose additional taxation.

Beck sounds like Nancy Pelosi. She wants a VAT too.

If Beck and O’Reilly really want to get rid of the national debt they’d call for the elimination of the Federal Reserve. Since the establishment of the Federal Reserve in 1914, government debt has increased from 2.9 billion dollars to a staggering and mind-numbing 8 trillion dollars.

All income taxes collected by the government go to the private banking cartel through the Federal Reserve just to pay interest on government loans. The Federal Reserve creates money out of thin air by entering numbers in a computer and loans it to the government at interest.

In addition to paying the bankers, your tax dollars go to build a world government. So-called “transfer payments” go right to the World Bank, the United Nations, and the International Monetary Fund. As I write this, the globalists gathered in Copenhagen are plotting to steal even more money through a global carbon tax.

Private bankers have fleeced the American people for decades. Beck and O’Reilly should be calling for the immediate end of the Federal Reserve. Instead, they sound like the so-called liberals over at MSNBC and CNN, calling for more and apparently never-ending burdensome taxation on the American people.

Beck and O’Reilly should call the U.S. Treasury to print its own money, as stated in the Constitution. It is illegal and criminal for the government to allow the Federal Reserve to print our money and loan it back to us at interest.

Beck and O’Reilly should demand the Fed not be allowed to dictate monetary policy and jack with the money supply. The Federal Reserve has engineered every recession and depression since its inception.

“The Federal Reserve definitely caused the Great Depression by contracting the amount of currency in circulation by one third from 1929 to 1933,” said Milton Friedman, Nobel Prize winning economist.

Instead they call for more taxation to be paid directly to the banksters.

Glenn Beck is not a libertarian. He is a shill for the Federal Reserve and the bankers. People who believe Glenn Beck is a patriot and follow his contrived political movement need to be aware of this. Glenn Beck is a Pied Piper leading the people in self-defeating circles. Beck’s task is to destroy the tea party movement and lead his hoodwinked followers back into the fold.

Beck’s VAT will not go to pay down the national debt. It will be used to pump even more wealth stolen from the American people into the coffers of the bankers.

Only an end of the Federal Reserve and the banker theft operation will free the people from never-ending and exponentially increasing government debt.
