Too bad we can't just organize a massive tax boycott - if there were a way to cut off funding to the government, even for a short time, maybe it would wake them up.
Unfortunately, the answer would be the government siezing our property. So we would have no impact.
Actually I've thought for years now....one reason the WWW causes some people in power some worry..is how it can "connect" people.
After all...what better way to rally like-minded people to a common cause.
If a million folks adjusted their tax obligation to having to pay more April 15th...but held it back for a month or so....I expect that would gain some attention....
It would have to be done carefully though....
Oh well....a person can dream......Ha!!
massive tax boycott
Actually, in an indirect way, it can be done. Stop having the payroll dept take out extra dollar for taxes. Start educating people that it is actually better to OWE tax than get it back. The american people have been duped for years about refunds
One year I had to pay a combined state and fed tax of $800. I was so mad about it when I got back to work but my boss said look at it this way, the gov't didn't get to use your money for free. This way they will only get what they actually need.
