I remember way back when, the Reagun years, that the very first tax-protestors I heard of where people who were deducting the 40% (or whatever it was) of thier income tax for the same percentage of the budget that went to the military and paying the rest. I don't remember any specifics, but a lot went to jail. It's tough, and yeah it helps to own your house outright (how do they pay property taxes?) but the other option is to have your heart broken by joining some sort of peace movement.DVD Burner wrote:Hey,
What about my taxes. I really dont wanna pay taxes for any of this shit any more. I've said this plenty of times on this board. Does anyone have any ideas about this thought? I dont like what's being done with my taxes.

Where can I get a windfall like that? I'd like to build one of those really efficient, off grid homes (or one which feeds power INTO the grid!), and live a really cost effecient life style. The trouble is, it seems you need to be rich in order to SAVE money! At least here in the USA....blyslv wrote:There's a couple in Alb. NM who live on less then $5000 a year. They raise a lot of their own food and can a lot of fruit for trade from their backyard orchard. They rarely buy anything. They chosse this life so that they wouldn't have to pay taxes. They also had a windfall that allowed them to purchase their own house, AND then take the pledge of poverty.

See, that's exactly my point about my wasted taxes. I can do better. What would Burningman have to do to become the recipient of my taxes? In other words, I'd rather pay taxes to Burningman. I'm not talking tax write off. I'm talking I want to stop giving my taxes to this government and give it to Burningman.
