I pay my taxes because I think it goes back to the community, goes to police salaries, goes to public schools, public parks, highways, etc.... ACTUALLY... just recently found out that my hard earned money and paid tax dollars are mostly going overseas to Gender Study programs, researching a Smart Toilet Seat which takes an impression of your anus, and to Peloci's 20k freezer filled with ice cream....Taxes seem so fundamentally built in to the system, automatically paid from paycheck, automatically paid when added at a retail store, automatically paid when paying mortgage... So how does one even begin to think about not paying it???

I dont know about you, but if my tax dollars are being spent on people we employee and they treat us like shit, i'd say we stop paying. Sounds crazy? Well, if you had an employee who was treating you like shit, takes your money, causes damage, talks a big game but does not deliver, what do you do? you'd fire him. Most likely on the spot... ultimately cutting off their salary. Not such a crazy thought after all

If we stop paying together it will be a force to be reckoned with. Try to fund anything without the taxes of 90 million patriots

Ya I get it you can't do it one at a time... that's why I said 90 million. It would be the greatest social disobedience protest ever in the history of the world

If we can all mobilize in that way, all 90 million people (maybe even more), we may have a real shot and I would certainly jump on board.

This right here is the only way it will work... A 1 on 1 basis, you're screwed

Stop spending. You still have to pay income an property tax, but it we all go on a spending fast then sales tax and business income tax decline. Steve Bannon is putting together a campaign if things don’t work out. Economic warfare, organized and legal. Boycotts and economic sanctions.

OK, if anything, most working class Americans receive money back because they "overpaid" in taxes, right? Well, essentially, what the IRS is doing is theyre charging you more in taxes, basically taking a loan from you, and then sending whatever they owe you back... they do take more from you for 2 reasons, 1, they use your money to do whatever they do with it rather than you using your money, and 2, if you forget to file, or pay a certain year, or get in trouble, or die, or whatever the case may be, well, then they just keep it... IF YOURE GOING TO BE PAYING TAXES, DO NOT GIVE THEM A PENNY MORE!! I rather pay at the end of the year (or not) than be receiving a check back.

That ship has sailed. They will seize your bank accounts, assets, or garnish your wages. That happened to a friend of mine.

Go exempt

I do that already... But, the amount of times i exempt only balances out what im supposed to get back at the end of the year.
