#1 David Gross, you are a not particularly useful idiot and sucking up oxygen.

#2 I'm sure the self-righteousness keeps him warm and well-fed. Just wouldn't want to be in his shoes when the IRS comes a-knockin'.

#3 Remember your smug remarks when the IRS seizes your bank accounts and home.

#4 > I don't believe in transfer payements and government-run health insurance. How much can I save on My taxes?

Yep, we should encourage the left to advocate more "moral" tax cuts. Then the right can have some fun too.

I'd say that because he won't pay the tax to defend the value of his property, he should lose the protection of the property.

Time to squat in Dave's house

#5 He lives in the San Francisco area and lives on about $15K a year?

I wonder how much of his 'contract based work' is paid 'under the table' and thus, not reported to the IRS? I think both he and his employers could get in trouble.

Time to fire up the Auditors.....

#6 LOL The IRS goons are going to decen upon him like Rosie Odonnel on KFC. Thanks for playing our game "Who Is More Stupid" and your this weeks whinner.

#7 Just hope the IRS goons don't throw him in jail. I don't like the idea of my tax dollars subsidizing his breathing. Maybe deport him to the EU?

#8 He lives in the San Francisco area and lives on about $15K a year?

No Way CrazyFool, I agree. He's getting subsidized in a big way if he is. I spend that much on food. LOL!

#9 I'll bet that he lives on that amount because Mom/Dad/Boyfriend pay his living expenses. Even in Richmond you can't rent a lean-two for 1k a month.

#10 if he is not being carried by Mommy and Daddy and is in fact getting paid 'uder the table,' then when the IRS knocks on the door, they will have 2 counts (at least) to play with: not paying tax and tax evasion. Wasn't it Al Capone that got taken down by evading taxes?

#11 Yes, Big Al went down for tax evasion and for several years. Non-payment of taxes as a form of "social protest" has NOT been upheld by the US Supreme Court, so these fools can be gutted by the IRS at any time over this. One thing that will REALLY piss-off a government is someone who tries to deprive it of its taxes - and that holds true all over the world. This idiots ought to take a look at what happened to the "Fiat money is unconstitutional" crowd over non-payment of taxes : they lost everything of value, have liens on them for all future earnings, and several wound up doing time over contempt of court for comments made to federal judges.

#12 "One thing that will REALLY piss-off a government is someone who tries to deprive it of its taxes - and that holds true all over the world."

What pisses the IRS off even more are the ones who do it publicly ;).

#13 The IRS has refined and refined over the years the ways they can really mess with your life and make it difficult if you don't play the game.

#14 figured out he would have to make less than minimum wage.

More like four times the minimum wage. Hell, nearly half the households in the US don't owe or pay any Federal income taxes, and some get money back via EIC.

#15 Every dollar he does not earn is another dollar he can not redirect to MorOn.org or the Dhims.

#16 "and last year he refused to pay self-employment taxes'

What kind of a war protest is that? Is the Social Security Administration arming the troops these days? He's just a deadbeat hiding behind a lie.
