Hugo: The Bible teaches about tithing and the flat tax

在IRS大樓上,茶黨鳥對烏鴉說,“現在‘So many Americans’的交稅已超過了70%,‘So many Americans’已被‘Big Government’ and ‘High taxes’奴役了,不是嗎?”

烏鴉說,“《The United States Declaration of Independence》(July 4, 1776)指出,‘We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.’,那麼‘U.S. tax policy’怎麼可以違反此宣言?”

“《Holy Bible》說,‘And every tenth part of the land, out of the seed of the land and the fruit of the tree, belongs to Jehovah. It is something holy to Jehovah.’(Lev 27:30)與‘BEHOLD, then, how great this man was to whom Abraham, the family head, gave a tenth out of the chief spoils. True, the men from the sons of Le´vi who receive their priestly office have a commandment to collect tithes from the people according to the Law, that is, from their brothers, even if these have issued from the loins of Abraham’(Heb 7:4-5),‘The Bible teaches about tithing’(Gen 14:20-23; Lev 27:30-34; Deu 14:22-29; Deu 26:12-14; Deu 12:10-12; Deu 12:17-19; Deu 12:26-27; Deu 12:32; Deu 26:13-14; Deu 27:26; Deu 28:58-68; Mal 3:7-12; Num 18:21-28; Neh 13:5; Neh 12:44; Matt 23:23; Heb 7:1-10; Luke 11:42; Matt 8:3-4; Luke 18:12)不就是可以用於人類的最合理‘Tax police’?人類應該以‘The Bible teaches about tithing’來建立‘Flat tax policy’,不是嗎?”

“《Holy Bible》說,‘God thunders with his voice in a wonderful way, Doing great things that we cannot know.’(Job 37:5),耶和華的智慧存在於宇宙的每一處(Ps 83:18; Rev 15:3; Ps 90:2; Rev 4:11),耶和華的智慧存在於人類文明的每一處(Ps 147:5; Rom 11:33; Isa 40:28; Job 12:13; Job 36:5; Prov. 4:5-7; Rom 11:25-36; James 3:13-18; Isa55:8-9; Job 28:12-28; Jer 51:15-17; Rom 16:25-27; 1 Tim 1:17; Jude 1:25; Dan 2:20; James 1:5; Jer 10:12; Jer 51:15; Luke 1:17; 1 Cor 1:24; 1 Cor 2:5; Col 2:3; Rev 5:12; Rev 7:12; Eze 11:5; Luke 5:21-22; Sam 23:10-12; 2 Kings 8:10; 2 Peter 2:9; Rom 16:19; Ps 104:24-26; Ps 111:10),耶和華的智慧也存在於人類的‘Tax policy’裡,不是嗎?”

Ps 1, A true flat rate tax is a system of taxation where one tax rate is applied to all income with no exceptions.(“Flat rate tax”符合“All men are created equal”的原則)

Ps 2, “十一稅”是“十主人供養一僕人”,“十一稅”符合“A slave is not greater than his master”(John 15:20; John 13:15-16; Matt 10:24)的原則(僕人的工資不應高於主人,僕人的權力不應大於主人)。

Ps 3, 美國的稅,現已超過了70%,這些稅,包括各種不符合道德原則的高“個人所得稅(State and federal taxes, Social security and Medicare tax, Every year tax season)、Company Payroll Tax、購物稅、餐廳點餐稅、房屋稅、土地稅、公司稅、執照稅、行車牌照稅、企業所得稅、關稅、公私立學校經常性要求學生家長捐款”等。這些都是屬於“僕人大於主人”的制度,這些都是違反《United States Declaration of Independence 》(July 4, 1776)裡的“All men are created equal”與違反“Spirit of Liberty”原則的制度。

Ps 4, 羅斯的福新政(Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal, 1933-1936)對美國稅制進行改變,它根據納稅能力納稅,分級徵收公司所得稅與過分利得稅等,這種稅制完全違反“All men are created equal”的原則。
