What if 200+/- million tax paying citizens refused to pay federal taxes? Kick all congress members out of office and hold special elections for members WE vote for and choose!
You fill out a new 1040 fed tax form for Zero withholdings. This is done in some instances, as an example; Husband is in highest tax bracket & wife is in low or zero tax bracket due to husband's income/high tax bracket. Or both can actually have ZERO fed taxes withheld and only pay 7.5% to FICA (social security) to fed. But each will receive a fed income tax notification of fed taxes owed. Also, once a certain income is reached throughout the year, 7.5% is no longer deducted, which means that income earner has reached the limit for FICA deductions for that year. Personal knowledge...
Plan to defund the Fed Gov't - Therefore the 200 +/- million fed tax-paying US citizens go to their current employer personnel dept and fill-out new 1040 forms for ZERO fed taxes withheld (with the exclusion of the 7.5% for FICA/social security deduction, which is mandatory) and VOILA! The American tax-payer shuts down the FEDERAL GOV'T by proxy by not paying fed taxes!
