It’s a parasite. <\/p>\n
It will always be a parasite, and nothing will stop this. Ever. A parasite dies usually only when the host dies. <\/p>\n
One of the ways to get rid of a parasite is to starve it. What if we all stopped our withholding? “We’ll pay you at the end of the year” and at the end of the year, nobody write the checks. Would it crash? would we all crash? Would the person die of starvation? <\/p>\n
Americans are pretty fat. Myself included. If you wait until a person with a tapeworm is rail-thin, starving them to kill the tapeworm will kill them. If a fat person develops a tapeworm, starving them to kill the tapeworm is only a minor inconvenience. Nothing illegal is required, nothing violent. Paying taxes is voluntary, right? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
