The following was from Kjono's web site forces.org:

The tax collectors vow to be relentless but deny that the primary motive is to collect the back taxes. The real purpose is to "educate people so they realize they're breaking the law."

Two words come to mind and it rhymes with bull shit.

Agreed, its all about money.

The goobermint thinks we're stupid. Unfortunately, for the most part, they are correct.

I agree.

Washington is just one of many states with an out of control tax system. My wife and I live in Idaho. She works in Washington, which has no state income tax. Idaho does, so of course we pay Idaho state tax. However, many people who love in Washington work in Idaho. And yes, they, too pay Idaho state income tax.

Now, it seesm to me it ought to be one or the other-you pay tax to the state you live in, but not work in, or vice versa.

As an aside, I was amused to discover that the Boston Tea Party was held because the tariffs went up to a whopping 5%! That would be a steal these days...
