The Bipartisan Oligarchy has really, deliberately disenfranchised THE TAXPAYING portion of the electorate....there really is no obligation to continue to pay taxes as our claim to representation has been revoked by them.
“Direct” disenfranchisement refers to actions that explicitly prevent people from voting or having their votes counted, as opposed to “indirect” techniques, which attempt to prevent people’s votes from having an impact on political outcomes (e.g., gerrymandering, ballot box stuffing, stripping elected officials of their powers).

The issue of taxation without recourse to representation is of course the basis of the Revolutionary War.
Only We the People can fix this. It is difficult for those of us growing up in the USA to believe we have been dealt out of government. But Barack Obama has been the best thing for DC since FDR..and nobody -Republican or Democrat -there will let him go that easy.
Since the Bipartisan Oligarchy...
