APRIL 15TH------TAX DAY WITHOUT REPRESENTATION....
Portland Couple Has Refused to Pay Taxes for 30 Years to Protest Military Funding
"In Fiscal Year 2006, the U. S. Government spent $406 Billion of your money on interest payments to the holders of the National Debt."As of early 2008, the total U.S. federal debt is around $9.5 trillion, about $31,100 per U.S. citizen. Of this amount, debt "held by the public" was roughly $5.3 trillion - this is the amount of money owed by the U.S. government to its creditors.
Since much of this debt was run up by delivering fraudulent and bogus contracts to giant international corporations like Boeing, Lockheed, etc., there is a very good argument that this distribution of taxpayer funds represents "taxation without representation".
Furthermore, the tax burden falls most heavily on the shoulders of the middle class, while the wealthiest benefit from tax cuts across the board.
Furthermore, the present President is a fraud who only gained office via a stolen election - an election stolen with the overt assistance of a right-wing, politicized Supreme Court. Under such conditions, citizens are entirely justified in paying their taxes to their local or state governments. There's been the equivalent of a fascist coup in the executive branch of the federal government, so anti-war tax protest is more legitimate than ever. Again, it has to go to your local government - not into your pocket - for it truly to be tax protest.
