"common working man" likely pays a lot less to the IRS compared to state/county/city/sales/property taxes.
which is why you never own your home even if you have the loan paid off. you have to pay rent to the government for having your name on the deed. so people don't own houses. nor do they own land. they are simply tenants with a piece of paper that requires them to pay up every year or lose it.
That's where the real government grift happens but that's too complicated for a campaign slogan. Not that the convoluted federal tax forms couldn't use an overhaul, but the whole IRS obsession is more of a distraction from the absurd flustercuck of thousands of different tax jurisdictions trying to fuck you over whichever way they can because freedom.
you're right.
You're both wrong. The birth certificate is a transfer of property form. Your parents signed you away in trust to the government. If you don't formally make statement to the government that you are an adult, no longer of trust age, they hold you in trust. They are the trustee. You don't own yourself because of this.
