To suggest that taxation is insufficient for the rest of us, as he has

That's nice. You heard about this on SW right?

Alex Jones touches on these themes from time to time. Like William
Cooper used to; but he was full of crap too, right?


Yes. That guy was a nut and it got him killed for no good reason. What a

I listened to him (on SW of course!) for the humour. I picked up a copy of his
book, 'Behold a Pale Horse' I think it was, and was amused by it as well.

He was a real goofball.
