Today, February 18th, 2010, Joseph Stack, a 53 year old software engineer few his small plane into the Austin Internal Revenue Service Offices at full throttle. Before he crashed his plane into the IRS Office, Mr. Stack also set his house on fire with his wife and 12 year old daughter or stepdaughter inside. Lucky for them a neighbor got them out before it was too late.
I think it's obvious Joseph Stack had an issue with taxes.
I think it's also obvious he had some other issues as well.
It's a sad situation. Others were killed and critically injured besides Mr. Stack.
But... here's the thing... people loath the IRS so much that there are already jokes about it...
THE IRS IS THE MESSENGER... DON'T SHOOT THE MESSENGER.
If Mr. Stack wanted to target the source of tax problems, then he should have targeted Congress - not the IRS. The IRS is just enforcing the laws that are passed by Congress. I'm not condoning what he did or suggesting that someone fly a plane in to Congress at full throttle - let's get that clear right now.
If you're fed up with taxes, then use your VOTE, not Violence to make a stand and to make a change.
Pick up the phone and call, fax, email. Get out a sheet of paper and write a letter. Contact your elected officials and let them know that you will not stand for any more tax increases what-so-ever.
No More Tax Hikes: plane, hidden, lied about, whatever.
What's more, we need tax CUTS and NOW.
Email, write, fax, call, and then when election time comes around, vote conservative and get the tax loving liberals and democrats OUT of Office. But don't wait until then: start contacting your elected representatives NOW!
I've heard it said that if the average American actually had to hand over their money to the government, instead of payroll deductions making it numbingly overlooked, that we'd have a revolution in this country right away. That's why small business owners all scream for tax cuts - they actually see and feel what the government shakes down from each of us.
I always shake my head when people are happy that they are getting money back on their taxes! It's a brainwashed and uneducated euphoria of ignorance! They need to look at what they actually handed over to Uncle Sam and that happiness would be replaced by outrage, insult, and anger. WAKE UP AMERICA!
You can get your elected official's contact information from www.usa.gov
Until Next Time,
Fred
