Actually I was wondering about CSE Transportation. That would seem to indicate that they own a fleet, or sorts, and charge people to transport them or material.

OK, I'm going to go against the general consenses and say that it's bad that this guy lost.

I haven't really followed who Ken Hovind is, what he wants or why the IRS is after him. However, it would be great if you could just not pay your taxes and get away with it by posting a sign on your door saying that the IRS can't come in.

I love that idea and would be happy to team up with creationists to make it happen.

Think a bit past that to what allowing that would bring as well.

Tell me... if no-one paid taxes... Where would the money for roads, police, fire departments, etc etc etc come from?

Even if it was legal, no sane judge would ever set a precedent just that.... stupid by ruling in his favour.

bring the country's economy crashing down at a stroke.

Most of the politicians and people who work for the government pocket our taxes anyway. They get to choose their own income (and they’re constantly raising there wages).
