Perhaps "rebellion lite": just ignore them and don't participate. See how bad the feds want to make an issue of it and what they're willing to do to enforce it. Nullification. It's been tried. I think politically, it would be as effective as shutting down the Congress was. Meaning, the dumb people of America wouldn't like it. But who knows? Times are hard, maybe people are grumpy enough to go along.

Meaning, the dumb people of America wouldn't like it.A little different situation here, though. If we accept the notion that there are red and blue states, then statist tyrant-fellators aren't evenly distributed in all 50 states. So in the states that might try this, there is probably a majority of voters who would approve. I sense resentment of federal overreach growing every day. Hell, Obamacare/deathcare is so unpopular even liberals might boycott it!
