I concede your amendment 18, I should have been more specific

Every one of the amendments of the original constititution (Bill or Rights )
constrains the power of the federal goverment.

Yes england does not have a bill of rights, or a constitution ( give us a call when you win your freedom)

swoop... we actualy did copy the magna carta and other british laws when we made our constitution...  they are noble documents.

Problem is... they lack the force of guarantee... words like "reasonable" (as determined by the government) were not deemed strong enough by our founders.   We seen how "reasonable" the british government could be to us "colonials" and fired the shot heard round the  world to rid ourselves of your "reasonable" rule.

curval... I make up your mind... are you talking about england or your tiny little island?   I have admited that your little palyground is a tax haven/shelter in the past.    I think you live under a lot of restrictions that are silly and laughable and that any freedoms you do have are yours only by the grace of your rulers... you really have no guarentees.

What we were talking about was england.

Certainly I would like to have your taxes but.... nothing more of your island.  You seem to be defending english taxes tho by saying that the U.S. pays taxes too.... My reply was that it was nothing near as severe as british socialism in my country.... I feel infinitely better off.

Now lazs, I'll quote what "I" was responding to again, just to be clear:

"The fact that you don't see any difference in the tax paid and amounts of socialism in the various countries seems odd given your profession."

When you say "various countries" you mean England?  Is that what your convulted post is trying to say?

See...I will respond to the things you WRITE not the things you "mean".  Please don't act like my wife and expect me to mind read.

According to Beet1e, the repeal of the 18th amendment is a hair splitting retort.

Noted.

The fact that you chose the failed amendment that proves the sentiment of mydavis' point that the constitution limits government and by doing so protects the rights of the people

curval... I am saying that in your profession that you have a fair knowledge of "various" countries tax structures since many of em come to your little island (I do not consider it a country) to escape paying what the peasants have to pay.

If you do consider bermuda a country and you have no experiance in tax laws of "various countries" then perhaps I was wrong.   I had allways understood that bermuda was a territory and not a country.   If that is true... then "various countries" would be easy enough of a statement for you to understand.

And beet.... the original "Bill of Rights" is what I believe we were talking about.

No, I said I was waiting for a hair splitting retort - but none was forthcoming.
