“How many on this forum will NOT pay their taxes on April 15th?”
How many besides those so locked down they didn’t HAVE an income?
Not many. But that’s the quickest way out of the oblivion this republic faces. The most painless by far. 70 million refusals would end this predicament within the month. SCOTUS won’t, Congress won’t, they got theirs and they don’t care about you.
Nor can 70 million people be locked up. The government would surrender before there was time even to write the threatening letters. Who’s going to do it if there’s no money to pay their salaries?
However, 70 million are likely too inert for that, and/or too fearful.
If you have to stay legal, whittle down the taxable income and the resources. Yes, that will be very inconvenient. But if enough people do that, the threat of economic collapse will still suffice, government will back down.
Government fears loss of revenue most of all. Bullets they have. Money they have not. Without us they don’t even have credit, never mind bleeping money.
