The "Special" Humans and Their Illusory "Magical" Powers + Exposing My Own Error

The people have no power except what congress can change. The government is already operating at a loss and has no problem (has already planned for and has the infrastructure to do it) incarcerate a 100 million people should they band together and stop paying taxes. Whether we all decide to boycott the state statistics says 2/3rds will choose to obey and incarcerate the remaining 1/3 absent a civil war - Funded by who? Putin?

Actually, the people have the power. They've just been kidded into believing they have no power so that they'd be easier to manipulate and control through fear based propaganda. Even if they imprison 100 million people, it's still a loss for the government because then they have to feed and shelter those people within the prisons.

If those people all refuse to cooperate with the wardens' attempts to force them to work, even if they kill the prisoners, they'd still be at a loss. Actually, if they do imprison the entirety of the population, the control system would almost immediately collapse, because there'd be nobody to work the jobs and pay the taxes (provided the population stays united in mind, heart and action). Incidentally, and I find it rather amusing and ironic, if you go to jail for tax evasion you're technically living off taxes as a direct result of not paying taxes (albeit not in particularly comfortable conditions - but comfort, while it can easily coexist with freedom, it does not imply the latter).

If people just stopped giving a fuck about words on paper called "laws", we would easily turn this situation around. Think about it. If the manipulators were so "powerful", why would they waste time trying to manipulate the population? If they had the manifested ability to overpower the population, they wouldn't waste all that time and all those resources to stimulate public perception in their favour.

Again, calling congress to "fix it" or saying that "oh, we have no power" is likely merely an excuse that people use to mask their complacency and perhaps cowardice, aside from being ignorant to the infinity that everything is.

In my country, people have already started organising themselves to start refusing to pay at least some of the taxes.

Anyway, once one remembers that this life is but a game and there are infinities of others, as well as that everything is genuinely infinite and veyond, all of these little issues, while relevant to have as experiences to learn from, will seem trifle in comparison to what we and everything else is.

Great Points but You lost me at the end there.
