I think that is great! Trump is going to need more volunteers to work on the chain gangs he has planned to work fields that the illegals are no longer available for.

“What are all these clowns going to do in a few years when not even the MSM can cover up how much better things are?”

He’s a moron. He never thought of that.

Still, he probably owes some as a high paid professor.

The Guardian is a leftie Brit rag trying to stir up dirt in the US.

“If we don’t have full control of government, we’ll dissolve it!!!”

or in other words...

“Nobody move or the [sheriff] gets it.”

That worked for Cleavon Little because the town was dumb. The town isn’t dumb. the lefties trying to collapse the government are the dumb ones. Go on, I dare ya. If you’re feeling froggy, jump.

Considering that a large number of these “Progressives” are on the dole, this isn’t much of a threat.

"This guy will pay. It will just be when the IRS levies on his bank account or lines his house. And they won’t care that he doesn’t like Trump."

He'll pay. Plus interest. Plus penalties. Plus he'll need to pay a tax attorney to keep him out of the hoosegow.

If it wouldn't have hurt me more than Obama, I would have been doing this for the last 8 years. Stupid futile gesture.

This guy can’t be this stupid. He will not prevail. Not paying your income taxes is not a form of civil disobedience. The voting booth is.

So, if this boob tries this, he will incur considerable legal expenses, and everything else. It might take two years before they catch him, but he’ll pay.

Super. Trump can tweet the blame lies on the left who won’t pay the EPA salaries.

Donald Trump:
What a shame. Due to shortages in money we will have to dismantle 3/4 of the Federal Government.
Thanks to the left withholding their taxes.

“The government wants our money and if a lot of people were thinking about this kind of peaceful protest, it would get their attention,”

LOL...it sure will get their attention. And after they impound your bank account, take your car and change the locks on your house you'll wish it hadn't. You can get by with a whole lot of bull crap these days but stiffing the IRS isn't among that crap. They take their entitlement to your hard earned money very, very, seriously.

Watching these nut cases unravel has been the most fun I have had in 8 years.

Parasite Democrats living on welfare who never pay taxes are going to withhold paying nonexistent taxes?

Never going to happen.

He’ll pay his city and state taxes but will refuse to pay federal income tax as a cry of civil disobedience against the president and his new administration.

Image result for applause gif

Good for you sir. I hope many more of your type do exactly the same thing. The more idiot liberals that are rounded up and sent to jail for these actions - the better.

Conservatives and libertarians go ‘Galt’. They live on what they have already accrued and stop producing for a socialist state.

Liberals just run a tantrum hold there breath till they turn blue. Make a statement by refusing to pay their legal due. Then cry when they’re convinced of tax evasion.

Andrew Newman always pays his taxes, even if he hates what the government is doing with them. But not this year. For him, Donald Trump is the dealbreaker. He’ll pay his city and state taxes but will refuse to pay federal income tax as a cry of civil disobedience against the president and his new administration.

This is entertaining.

If you propose to deny the IRS its pound of flesh, you had better be prepared to Go Big.

Guess what? The Internal Revenue Service always gets the money - one way or another.

The IRS always gets their man and will win in the end.
