OK, let's stop paying taxes.
Fire all the cops. Crack heads breaking into your home and raping your kids? Use your gun and defend yourself! And even crack whores need a place to ply their trade. Your front lawn will work very nicely.
Fire all the fire fighters. House on fire? That's what garden hoses are for!
Fire all the air traffic controllers. Good pilots don't need no stinking ATC!
Fire all the municipal road crews. Fix your road yourself!
Close all the prisons and turn loose all the inmates. Every man, woman and child for themselves!
Fire all the public transport drivers. Hey, you don't have a right to a bus!
Close all the public schools. You're edumaketed. Pass it onto yer kidz yerslef.
Fire all the housing inspectors. Landlord won't fix the hole in the bathroom wall where the pervert in the next apartment watches your daughter? Too bad!
Cancel welfare, unemployment and Social Security. If you can't pay your own way, you deserve to die!
Close all the public run hospitals. You're sick? Too bad! Survival of the fittest is the rule of the day.
Turn off all the traffic signals on the streets. Who needs them anyway? We can take bets on which car will make it through and which ones won't. Run up the body count!
Turn out all of the street lighting at night. You have no right to see where the drug dealers, crack whores and child rapists are!
Fire all the power plant inspectors, FAA flight examiners and road safety engineers. This could really be fun! I'd love to fly a 747! I did pretty good on MS Flight Sim with it! Yeah! Don't bother with your seatbelts ladies and gents. There's no way this thing will get down in one piece anyway. Oh, and the flight attendants are all terrorists so even if I knew how to fly this thing it really wouldn't matter.
Now, see how long society will last. We'd decend into anarchy in a matter of days. Gee, this will be FUN!

The people in their wisdom have enthusiastically encouraged Big Government to build the largest gulag of prisons since Stalin and today the US has 2.5 million locked up--more people than any other country in the world, even more than Communist China! And the people love it, they like long sentences and easy rules of evidence for prosecutors. Why? I don't have a clue. But the point is, there is lots of prison space available for the people who voted the prison state into being. That was the point of building it. So the question becomes, who will be the 1 or 2 million that are the first to get locked up and have their houses and cars and everything else they own taken away. Do not hold your breath.

Yes, this is a government by the people for the people and our greedy politicians have forgotten that they are nothing without our support. I would like to see us try a few different approaches before we resorted to that extreme but it would for sure get them to listen.

with a nation like ours split 50/50 it going to be hard to get people to side with you. but I am for it, God only asks for 10% gov. wants 35%? we should rise up and revolt, how many Americans will do this I wish all or most but people just don't care anymore.

They get it before you even see it. Many do not pay taxes, however. If you are a service for cash person, you pay no income taxes. But there is no way you can pay none--- gasoline is taxed, food, is your phone, property, no way can you not pay taxes -- some taxes
