Jim,
Screw emails and phone calls, screw tea parties and going to DC, etc. They aren’t going to listen to us, period.
It’s time WE organize against them. I propose, beginning Monday we have a general strike in the US
Do NOT go to WORK
DO NOT buy ANYTHING
DO NOT go ANYWHERE except for a protest/civil disobedience, etc
DO NOT spend a single penny on anything.
We starve the bastards while we prepare to take our country back.
Will you support doing this?
I am planning to put my tax payment in escrow, have it documented as in escrow, and attach the documentation along with a nice note to the IRS and mail it in on April 15th.
My nice note will explain that my check will remain in escrow until all members of the present administration who owe back taxes, pay their back taxes...at which time my payment will be mailed!
I would certainly understand working folks wanting to take part in a work strike, provided it didn't cost them their job. You can be sure if ones boss is an Obama supporter, he/she may fire an employee for taking a day or more off from work.
I see it as very difficult to get folks to jeopardize their jobs by striking when it is hard times and jobs are already hard to find and also to keep with so many layoffs.
My action on April 15th as described above may be easier for folks to consider. After all, Tim Geithner, our Sec.of Treasury, still owes back taxes for 2003 along with several others in this administration who also owe back taxes.
Don't you think it is reasonable for us to demand that those who work in the government pay their back taxes before we pay ours? :)
