Get a house in the country, build it half under-ground, burmmed on three sides, facing south; get a bunch of Solar Panels, a fleet of Electric Cars; hire drivers to taxi and sell the cars. What is the problem?

I hear that the soil is now deteriorating, being contaminated with aluminum and barium for some strange, inexplicable, mysterious, reason.

It does not have to be either/or and that is the point, each moral person IS responsible, and each moral person, by definition, pays their own costs, going on their own authority, not mine.

Again, and I think the passage that goes "give unto Caesar that which is Caesar's" applies. You are not even in the game, so those concerns (how much you can make money make money) do not apply, not unless you figure out how to supply a demand.

added quotes for readability:

I think that there will be a demand for the information you are uncovering. So an investment now may actually be a book and the accumulation of knowledge required to sell the book. But that makes sense to me in the context of my present situation, along the same lines as learning how to work as a Common Law Lawyer or run for office.

modified as follows (put back some of the commas you original had and I think it works better the way you had it as one long sentence :) )

I think that the most important power required, stored in your mind, is knowing that a fork in the road may arrive too soon and the right way has to be taken because the wrong way is too costly. And by that I mean that a person can become their own worst enemy if they are not prepared mentally for very challenging situations where doing the wrong thing may appear to be an easy way out, including doing nothing.

Added that and removed And:

You are invited to listen in as Joe sets bear straight on what is tax and what is voting and what possibilities might constitute paying or not paying taxes. bear is amazed as Joe can take a single word or phrase or question and dissect the concept into many different possibilities. bear laughs reading Joe’s words, “I'm not buying the premise of the question - at all.” bear never imagined that such a question would not be bought! If Joe were a fish, he would be colossal indeed, as he never seems to swallow hook, line, and sinker! bear didn’t even imagine that a bait and switch routine was offered. I think that is partly what intrigues bear when dialoging with Joe, as simple questions are asked, one never knows what multi-faceted, educational reply will return!

added commas:

JOE, I miss this: "I think that is partly what intrigues bear when dialoging with Joe, as simple questions are asked, one never knows what multi-faceted, educational reply will return!"

I know times change and we find ourselves in different places these days, but I sincerely miss those precious spoons offered to me. I even hoped today that all that I had woken up to was maybe just a mistake, but reading the exchange in this comment reminds me that things are not as I once thought they were. But I sure wish I still enjoyed that "pie in the sky" that I thought I was living under. I guess it is a different kind of pie, perhaps a cow pie as it seems in this dialog you remind me that crap rolls downhill.

I hope all is well with you and yours.  I will hit page 100 soon!

These symbols in English were arranged and published as currency, verbal currency, equitably transferred on the Forum called The Daily Paul, over a span of many months. Since then, and credited to bear’s diligent help, I’ve made major breakthroughs in thinking – I think.

But any outward communication that may signal to other people that questions are being asked internally, may, fearfully and terribly, cause that person tons of stress so internal power is spent destroying the internal power to judge right from wrong.

Person C, yet again altogether different, pretends to pay taxes while keeping two sets of books: one set of books to remain in business, the other to fool the fellow criminals. One set of books is to balance the income and costs, while knowing the nature of the game to do unto other people before they have a chance to do unto me. And so the idea is to cheat and steal. And that is an investment. Pretending to pay taxes, while creating and employing every conceivable loop hole; at the same time promoting the concept of forcing other people, less inclined to "join ‘em," to pay "their fair share" or else. Do as I say, not as I do, but don’t let the cat out of the bag.

If from cradle to grave a person like Ben Bernanke, a typical welfare mama, or papa, who knows these days, but typical welfare baby anyway, draining the productive capacity of those who actually produce, does not pay taxes. Ben baby does not pay taxes. Then the poster boy of welfare, Ben baby, is on the receiving end of the extortion racket. So they don't pay taxes, but do they vote?

If you can offer up an example of what you mean by the term non tax payer, a person with a name, then it can be understood better what your question intends to answer - with an accurate answer.

"Society in every state is a blessing, but Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one: for when we suffer, or are exposed to the same miseries BY A GOVERNMENT, which we might expect in a country WITHOUT GOVERNMENT, our calamity is heightened by reflecting that we furnish the means by which we suffer."
