Look at your pay stub. Not your 'take home' pay amount. But your total earnings before any taxes are taken out. Now add in another 7-plus percent taxes paid by your employer.
Imagine getting all that gross income. Imagine not having to worry about 'net' income ever again. Except for the deductions you choose to make.
Look at your tax return as you prepare it this spring. Not at the $200 or $2000 you might get back. Instead look at the thousands of dollars they take from you. Every day, every week, every month, every year.
It is time to tell them no more. It is time to remind them they work for you not you for them.
It is time for you to educate yourself about the true cost of our current tax system and the inequities and outrageous impact it has on every citizen of the country.

Visit Online Tax Revolt dot com and join up. Sure it is a superficial, silly effort ...perhaps in the end meaning nothing.
But ya gotta start somewhere.
Just like Peter Finch in the old school film Network ...as some point you have to get up, go to the window and shout:
" I'M AS MAD AS HELL, AND I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS ANYMORE! "
It is time people. Let's stop the nonsense.
