Just a thought RE a possible civilly disobedient action
What would happen if all democrats "forgot" to file their income taxes (bar those who would get significant refunds, natch)?

Just a passing moment of whimsey... :evilgrin:

1. The people who actually did it would probably be much less than 1%
but those who proposed it would probably by inclined to carry through on the thought. The Feds would arrest and prosecute them and then you would have to change your name to a more realistic number. :evilgrin:

3. It would be fine if it gained enough critical mass
It doesn't take much to throw 100,000 people in jail though.
