Tax revolt would work if people were ready to accept the same fate as our forefathers did. Many of them lost their property, their families, and their wealth.

If they were wiling to die for us, why aren’t we ready to do the same?

If enough of us would transfer our property to trusted friends or relatives, refuse to pay, and be willing to go to jail, lose our jobs, etc., we could stop this insanity. We could get conservative lawyers to take our cases pro-bono, conservative friends to shelter us (underground railroad) and perhaps really make some change.

That said, it would take an organized movement for the congress to get scared. A nation divided will not stand. What will we have left, and how to rebuild?

That’s true..., it would be a sacrifice for a certain number. How a large group of people are “held in check” is that no one wants to be “out in front” and take the “hit” for everyone else.

You’ve seen this idea at work in the “Westerns” that we see on TV. The sheriff is standing in front of a large crowd of people saying that they may get him, but he’ll take down those guys in front first... LOL..

No one wants to be the ones who get “taken down”... and that’s the problem...
