Your government is taking the tax dollars you are paying, and laundering it through AIG to send billion-dollar checks to foreign bankers. It’s is not sustainable.
Going Galt is not easy, but you can make a contribution in small, unexpected ways:
1) Defer your income – If you are already very well off, and you can afford to have your employer defer your income to a future year, DEFER. Work for free now and pay no tax while they are in office, with the promise that you’ll get income down the road. Then, make it clear to the government that you will continue to defer your income until these billions are reclaimed.
2) Have your wife (or you) re-engage your children: Most spouses work for very little money by the time you pay for the child care expenses, plus the taxes on the second income, plus the additional taxes you pay on the first income because the second income pushes you into a higher tax bracket. RUN THE NUMBERS – you’ll be surprised how very little your second wage-earner is actually making while someone else raises your kids. QUIT THE SECOND JOB. Forgo that income. Defy Obama. Take back the tax dollars on that income and instead, put it to your children’s future by raising them yourselves.
3) Stop spending! Unnecessary Spending = unnecessary sales taxes. Most of the products you are buying are made in China, so every dollar you spend on such items is shipped out of our country. Stop doing that. The side benefit is that you deprive badly run bloated state governments of sales tax revenue.
4) Keep some cash at home! It’s just a good idea to have a few thousand dollars at home anyway for emergencies. Get a fire safe for several hundred dollars and put away a few thousand dollars. Obama and Bernanke are printing money hand over fist using inflation to make your present dollars worth less. We can fight them back by taking some cash back out of circulation and not putting it in the banks. Plus, what they can’t find, they can’t tax and they can’t redistribute.
5) Work for cash, if you can. Tim Geithner had it right: Cash incom (like his reimbursements from his employer) are frequently not taxed. Keep that cash at home, spend it on everyday expenses, like our Treasury Secretary did for years and years and years. It’s how he became a millionaire. He knows the ins and outs. Follow his lead.
Going Galt doesn’t mean quitting your job and putting your family in jeopardy. It means depriving the government of your services in every way possible that you can without putting your family in jeopardy, while at the same time being very vocal about why you’re doing it. You have to deprive the government of your taxes, and then vote them out at the same time. VOTE ALL OF THEM OUT. Republicans and Democrats alike. They’re all in it together anyway.
Signed,
John
