HR22 - No Passport for Owed Taxes

Anne Fri, 12/18/2015 - 09:40

Contrarian Dude did an exemplary video shinning light on a new bill that Obama signed into law this week. HR22 basically says that if you have "seriously" delinquent tax debt, your passport would be revoked. He further points out that this happens without a trial or a hearing. A bureaucrat with a swipe of his pen can make you a prisoner within the boarders of your own country. Additionally, they wrote a provision in there to insulate them from a lawsuit if they accidentally get it wrong.

To me, this means they have new weapon of leverage to coerce, threaten, and harass someone who is a political, personal, or governmental target. And they get to do so with impunity. This breeds more Lois Lerner's to spread tyranny and further erode our individual liberties.

The only amendment that protects all the other amendments is the 2nd amendment. Back in the day after a county sheriff released a law breaker, the sheriff would give the bank robber or cattle rustle his gun back...'shall not be infringed'.
