Also something to think about, change your tax status to the maximum exemptions so the gov doesn't garnish your wages every paycheck. It's totally legal (afaik), just make sure you file and pay by April 15. For the more hardcore among us, if financially possible, ask for a pay cut to your state minimum wage. They can't tax it if you're not making it. Obviously not everyone can do this, if not maybe look into an IRA or some way to squirrel away money before it's taxed. (Not an attorney or financial advisor, proceed at own risk, check all state and federal laws)

This could be an effective, peaceful manner. But the participation numbers would have to be high.

Just farmers and truckers, 1/3 of each would remind people land does in fact vote. Just give me a heads up so I can prep better lol

You know what though, it's an individual thing too. If you are angry enough and refuse to pay for socialism, you will find a way to pay little or no taxes. Living a low income life is one way, or starting your own business. Also you can pay net zero taxes if you find some gibs you can qualify for.

I don't know about the rest of you, but I refuse to pay for socialism!!!

If we do something, the left will just do it back - but worse because they have the media and big corporations backing them. “Our company will pay you to sit at home and not do your job so you can protest Drumpf”. Expect that from every woke company out there until only Walmart and Amazon are left standing.

if it goes to SCOTUS and that fails, then sorry your ONLY option is 2a.

The founding fathers have made it clear as to why it's there. It's your God given right to set yourself free.

It's not pretty but its the only thing that will work if all ls fails.

You had a preview of this last spring didn't you? You have had all summer and fall to stock up and 'feed your family'

Sorry, but -- UserNameFail.

Meh. It's unamerican to not work. May need to get a job with the Trump Admin. That would do the trick.

Ah, a city boy. Ain't your job right? Has nothing to do with 'unamerican not to work'. It is what we do to maximize the potential for our own/children's survival. Harvest moon ring a bell? It wasn't tradition to stock up for winter. It is a primary survival skill employed by people for thousands of years.

City boy for way too long. First, I'm stuck in CA and my line of work is shut down anyway. STILL. Second, it's going to take a year, but we are moving to SEC country next January (that's the plan). With the equity in our house, we can buy a house outright. I can not WAIT to escape this Communism.

But you're right about the harvest...and not just food. Money, ammo, supplies...I've fallen too far behind, but I'm scraping up and saving where I can.

Farmers are America's lifeblood. No, it's not my job. It would probably kill me.

By SEC you meaning south central usa ? Network your way east young man. City folk can and should practice self-efficiency skills. Learn how to supplant your income by trading skills for items or growing some of your own families food. Locals are gonna notice if your just a transplant or a viable community member. Good luck to you!
