Executive Summary:
Americans for Tax Reform is printing a card on their website that reminds people of Candidate Obama's campaign pledge to not raise taxes on anyone who earns less than $250,000/year. This card, they (jokingly) suggest, could be shown to anyone trying to collect any of the new taxes that are being imposed on those in that income bracket.
Opinion:
I have been thinking for a while that the party running Washington D.C. is not going to stop their out of control spending and power grabbing unless people engage in some (hopefully polite but meaningful) civil disobedience. This isn't quite the kind of civil disobedience that I had in mind, but it is a good start. Anyone out there have any ideas?

I've been thinking of arguing that the new Washington state candy tax is discriminatory because it exempts candy with flour in it, and I'm allergic to wheat. I can't decide if I would be happy or not if I won that argument with the state.
ReplyDeleteMaybe we should each sign one of those cards and send them to the White House. If enough of them pile up, someone (if not Obama) will get the picture...
ReplyDeleteSounds good to me! I think I will go get a few of them now...
