Let's Take the 4th of July Off!

I know many of us will be off from work on the 4th of July, as a paid holiday, but I say we take a tax free day on the 4th. Much like the Boston Tea party our goal will be to show the government we are so against taxes we will spend the 4th of July finding ways to not pay taxes. Here are a few tips:

Dont buy anything on the 4th of July! We can eliminate a significant amount of tax revenue and can raise a whole lot of awareness from those in Washington.

Do not go to work on the 4th of July! I don't mean take a vacation day or holiday, I mean for you to tell your employer that you do not want to be paid that day and you can work if you want too but the impact it could have on society if you didn't, would be great. The amount of income tax revenue from this action would be significant enough to let our elected officials remember who put them in office.

Kevin

Very interesting idea. Most employers will not allow someone to work for free... workers compensation laws, insurance claims, etc. Just taking an unpaid day off would be the best idea. Also, you can change your W2 form so that you pay the minim amount in taxes each month. Ask your accountant or employers human resource department on how to do this. I want to pay a fair amount in taxes because I want to support our fireman and police force. I believe there are a few people in government who are working to better our country. Don't give up hope that good will prevail.
