Has anybody else noticed the parallels between slavery in the 19th century and taxes today?

http://www.lewrockwell.com/burris/burris16.1.html There is an ominous historic parallel between the way taxation is viewed today by our three major political groupings – Democrats, Republicans and Libertarians – and the way those same groups looked upon chattel slavery on the eve of the nations most disastrous civil conflict – the War for Southern Independence. In 1861, America faced a crossroads. The issue was slavery – the forcible confiscation and ownership of other human beings and the fruits of their labor. The Democrats believed slavery essential to the economy, that you could not run the economy without it. Slavery was in the nature of things. The Republicans, a minor party of diverse, disaffected elements, thought there was something wrong with slavery, but they did not want to take any drastic action. They did not want to abolish anything. They just wanted to slow the further extension of slavery into the territories. Republicans then, as today, were composed of craven corporatists, belligerent nationalists, "Know Nothing" nativists, fanatical moral reformers, and a few wayward, courageous souls dedicated to the constitutional vision of a decentralized republic of the framers. Republicans called for a decrease in the increase of slavery – much as modern Republican presidents since Ronald Reagan, never really wanted to cut taxes, but only decrease the increasing amount that is taken out of your paycheck each week. Reagan sponsored the largest tax increase in American history in a move which pleased the pro-tax bipartisan majority in Congress. Present-day embryonic "tea partiers" within the GOP are comparable to this "free-soil" element within the party of yesteryear. They know something is not right about confiscatory taxes and run-away spending but have not quite worked out a comprehensive frontal attack strategy and systematic analysis of the problem. Now if Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and all the rest of the South wanted slavery – fine. Lincoln and the Republicans supported a constitutional amendment to permanently guarantee slavery in the South. In fact, this amendment passed the Congress, and was ratified by three states before the war began at Fort Sumter. Today it is impossible for us to imagine that a majority of our fellow Americans held these opinions on this barbaric institution, that slavery virtually went unquestioned for thousands of years. The Libertarians of that day – the abolitionists – were vilified and attacked by the press as impractical idealists or worse. As the conscience of America, they believed that slavery was an affront to Almighty God and a gross violation of the essential individual human rights and dignity that were the glories of Americas heritage. The abolitionists demanded that slavery be immediately and unconditionally ended. In 1861, America was at a crossroads. Today we are again at a crossroads. The paramount issue we face is a parasitic system of taxation draining the economic lifeblood of our ability to feed, care for and clothe our families. Politicians have long led us to believe that individual freedom and self-reliance can only bring chaos, while taxation and centralized government planning are essential to impose order. In truth it is liberty and the competitive free market that gives us a productive and harmonious economic order; it is government and confiscatory taxation that bring chaos, corruption, and arbitrary power. According to published accounts, millions of Americans are engaged in active tax resistance, refusing to participate in their further enslavement by a government out of control; millions more are engaged in passive tax resistance in the "underground economy" – much as their predecessors used the "underground railroad" to escape slave masters and their governmental hirelings.

Would someone edit my essay? I need it a bit longer.?

At noon on April 22, 1889, cannons resounded at a 2-million acre (8,000 km²) section of Indian Territory, launching president Benjamin Harrisons "Hoss Race" or Land Run of 1889. During the next six hours, about 10,000 people settled in what became the capital of the new Territory of Oklahoma: Guthrie. Within months, Guthrie became a modern brick and stone "Queen of the Prairie" with municipal water, electricity, a mass transit system, and underground parking garages for horses and carriages. Hobart Johnstone Whitley, also known as HJ and the Father of Hollywood, built the first brick block building in the territory for the National Loan & Trust Company. He was asked by the local people to be the first Governor of Oklahoma. Whitley traveled to Washington, D.C. where he persuaded the U.S. Congress to allow Guthrie to be the new capital of the state of Oklahoma. By 1907, when Guthrie became the capital, it looked like a well established Eastern city. Statehood, however, meant that political control moved from the national level to state government. Without the protective arm of the federal government. three years later Guthrie fought and lost its battle to retain the capital. In the middle of the night, on June 11, 1910, the state seal was moved to Oklahoma City, and along with it, Guthries entire economic base. Guthrie soon slipped into an economic sleep lasting seventy years. Guthrie prospered briefly as the administrative center of the territory, but was eclipsed in economic influence by Oklahoma City early in the 20th century. Oklahoma City had managed to become a major junction for several railroads and had attracted a major industry in the form of meat packing. A successful campaign was started by Oklahoma City business leaders after statehood to make Oklahoma City the new state capital, and it was moved in 1910. As a result of the sudden loss of its administrative function, Guthrie began to dwindle in size and soon lost its status as Oklahomas second largest city, first to Muskogee, then later to Tulsa. Guthrie was named for John Guthrie of Topeka, a Kansas jurist. Guthrie post office was established April 4, 1889.[3]Guthrie was designated a National Historic Landmark by the National Park Service in 19. The happy result of Guthries misfortune is that the city is a perfectly preserved Victorian enclave. While growth and poor urban planning caused other Oklahoma towns such as Oklahoma City to destroy much of their early downtown architecture, much of the entire central business and residential district of Guthrie is totally intact. Guthrie is the largest urban Historic district in the United States, containing 2,169 buildings, 1,400 acres (6 km2) and 400 city blocks. Historical tourism has become the new industry for the town. Guthrie is home to several museums, including the Oklahoma Territorial Museum, as well as the National 4-String Banjo Hall of Fame and the Guthrie Scottish Rite Masonic Temple. Guthrie also claims to be the "Bed and Breakfast capital of Oklahoma". Guthrie is a Certified City and has received a Community Development Block Grant to inventory infrastructure features for Capital Improvement Planning (CIP). Guthrie has two lakes south of it called Liberty Lake and Guthrie Lake. The city hosts the Oklahoma International Bluegrass Festival, which draws 15,000 visitors annually. Guthrie is also the home to Oklahomas oldest year-round professional theatre company, the Pollard Theatre Company. With an emphasis on creative story-telling that illuminates the shared human experience, the Pollard produces six or more plays and musicals annually, enlisting the talents of skilled artists from all across the country. Through its season of diverse theatrical fare which includes A Territorial Christmas Carol, the annual holiday favorite, the Pollard Company continues to set the standard for theatrical production in the Sooner state. Its about Guthrie btw. Ill give you really good ratings from time to time if you help me out on this.
