Ho-Hum...more outraged hand-wringing, more impotent inaction. Wake me up when someone stands up to this tyrant

As long as we rely on “elected officials” there will be no standing up to tyranny. It is We the People who give them power and it is “We the People” who can tell them to pound sand.

I often wonder what a month without a conservative (not a day) would do to the coffers of the elite. If we neither bought or sold, nor opened the doors of our business, or went to our jobs.

What would that do, if We could commit to it?

that would be ‘going Galt’... and it takes the money out of their hands

but it only works over time, as they can survive a single month

it’s time for an outright tax revolt. to quote NReagan ... “JUST SAY NO!”

to make this work, it would probably require the states to jump onto the 10th amendment bandwagon and stipulate that the citizens of their state pay NO federal taxes. the tax obligation is on the state, not the individual... as the founders intended. this would drive power from washdc into the hands of state officials... and you can always trust people to do what’s in their best interest. the only thing holding this back would be the commies/ progressives/ socialists at the state level that are working for the big picture
