What we need is a revolution...Easiest way to do that would be to get rid of employer withholding and compel Americans to write a whopping check every April 15th.

IMHO, the people would revolt. That, and the budget would be dramatically reduced every election year as pols would magically find fat to trim, to 'buy' votes with lower taxes. :-)

BTW, I can't STAND idiots who give me the 'look how much I got back' line in Feb/Mar of every year. Fools, all of them.

I agree. Get rid of tax whithholding, move tax day to 1 week before federal elections, mark incumbents on the ballots.
