What if?

[TribalPrincess2U]

I’ve said that all along. Want to cause some really tough love.
Don’t pay.

[TribalPrincess2U]

It’s like Lerner saying, “I didn’t do anything wrong”.
Okay, who are you shilling for that did do something wrong?

[cripplecreek]

I wanna plead the 5th exemption.

[donmeaker]

There is witholding that most of us pay month by month or even week by week.

If we just stop withholding, that will give a large message long before April.

What If We Don’t Pay Taxes Next April?

That, my friend, would require conservatives loving their families more than worshipping Mammon.

Through my long years as a village and county council representative, I can assure you that most conservatives care more about dollars for themselves than freedom for their children.

How do I know that? Well, property taxes have been increasing for 30 years, and conservatives haven’t objected.

If you are STILL working....up your exemptions to 9....that way you can reduce the amount the IRS receives each paycheck (but plan to set aside enough to pay next April....unless of course you don’t)

[joshua c]

Per the W-4 instructions, you can claim up to 10 exemptions without calculation. Over 10 you have to justify the number you are claiming.

[little jeremiah]

I’ve read that about 20% (or is it 25%) of people who “should” pay taxes - just don’t file.

How many people can they arrest/jail/etc? There are only so many of them, and almsot unlimited amounts of us.

[little jeremiah]

I don’t think that no one cares, but no one knows what to do. Look what happened to Col. Lakin - one man stood up, and no one supported him. Well, a few did, but no one who could do anything. And he got the shaft.

Strength is in numbers.

[joshua c]

I dont think anybody is suggeting not filing, but increasing exemptions could send a message. It would push revenue into the next fiscal year, post 9/30.

When April comes around you could pay the shortfall or request an installment agreement. However, the IRS may request you withhold at a certain number of exemptions.

It is a short term strategy to send a message that we want action on the IRS scandal.

Plan to set aside enough to pay your liability in April *plus* the penalty for under-withholding. Yes, there is a penalty for being under-withheld. I got nailed a couple times by that one.

[donmeaker]

Be advised that if sufficient tax is not paid into withholding there may be a penalty. I am not a tax guy, and am not qualified to give tax advice. I just want folks to know that the IRS doesn’t have much sense of humor.

See, they figure they can play politics with taxes and noone can stop them, but if we was to do it, they would feel it their right and duty to stop us.

[SunkenCiv]

Thanks 2ndDivisionVet. If anyone thinks the Partisan Media Shills and spinmeisters aren’t salivating over that prospect, they’re nuts.

[Trailerpark Badass]

Be advised that if sufficient tax is not paid into withholding there may be a penalty.

Oh, well, then, forget it.

[Conservative4Ever]

Not only as you have said, your employer can be sent a withholding order from the IRS to mandetory W-4 filing of single/0. The IRS doesn’t play well with others.

[Secret Agent Man]

what if all taxpayers didn’t pay. and defended each other when irs came by.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Sorry: It’s irrelevant; I didn’t know; I just found out about it; It’s a bump in the road; It was a long time ago; I’m investigating myself to make sure it doesn’t happen again; Whether I forgot to pay or not, at this point what difference does it make; It was the video?

I doubt any of those would work.
