I just wanted to add that Im 100% behind you on this one Johnny.


I am sick of being extorted by these Harvard pirates in $2000 business suits who believe that they hold the authority to fleece hard working Americans who are already struggling to survive.

Take your foot off of our throats you treacherous, lying, scum swallowing beuracrats. We are not your slaves, we are not your tax mules. We are human beings and free under our Constitution and as such we demand absolution.

No taxation without representation, our sons and daughters will be your endentured servants no more.

Death to the criminal Fed and the wicked IRS

When I converse with the freest of my neighbors, I perceive that, whatever they may say about the magnitude and seriousness of the question, and their regard for the public tranquillity, the long and the short of the matter is, that they cannot spare the protection of the existing government, and they dread the consequences to their property and families of disobedience to it. They are not yet aware that it costs them less in every sense to incur the penalty of disobedience to the State than it would to obey.

If a thousand men were not to pay their tax-bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood. This is, in fact, the definition of a peaceable revolution, if any such is possible.

As for adopting the ways which the State has provided for remedying the evil, I know not of such ways. They take too much time, and a man's life will be gone. Men generally, under such a government as this, think that they ought to wait until they have persuaded the majority to alter them.

I saw that, if there was a wall of stone between me and my townsmen, there was a still more difficult one to climb or break through, before they could get to be as free as I was. Under a government which imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison.

I did not for a moment feel confined, and the walls seemed a great waste of stone and mortar. They had resolved to punish my body; just as boys, if they cannot come at some person against whom they have a spite, will abuse his dog. I saw that the State was half-witted and that it did not know its friends from its foes, and I lost all my remaining respect for it, and pitied it. It is not armed with superior wit or honesty, but with superior physical strength. I was not born to be forced. I will breathe after my own fashion. Let us see who is the strongest!

If you have to go to court, I think you have the right to demand a jury... right? I think you'd have a chance to win then.

I don't see how this is much of a stand to be quite honest with you. You've stated that your jobless, have no income and don't really own anything. This begs the question, what exactly are you witholding that you would otherwise be paying? The answer to this question is clearly nothing. I assume by your attitude and statements you will not be working anytime in the near future either. I understand why paying money to the government without direct benefits being directly in front of your eyes is frustrating though. Good luck anyway, though I doubt you will get much in the way of response or result.

I was about to post the same thing...Unfortunately, I do not emote any sort of patriotic support for him. I am actually sympathizing with him because of his deteriorated financial/mental state. His incidental attempt to compensate for financial ruin through a futile revolt creates an illusion for himself. I do not intend to sound harsh, but you have to face reality. Please, for all our sakes- go out and search for a job. You cannot possibly live a happy life in this condition. Copping out like this is not what anyone wants for you, and I believe that deep down, this is not what you truly desire either. The kind of revolution required is not against the state, but possibly against yourself. Challenge the somewhat depressed side of yourself with the conviction that tomorrow will be the day you turn things around for yourself, building the path for a bright future. Finding a job and ensuring financial responsibility are crucial. I hope this advice was insightful, and that things work out for you. But please, do not go down this road. No one wins.
