        What’s my option to not pay taxes? Go on hunger strike and starve to death, or be thrown in prison by the IRS?

          No one pays tax, they take tax. You can’t be held accountable for what your mugger spends your money on.

          That being said Charitable donations are tax deductible. My goal each year is to donate as much as the government takes in tax so I know they’re doing something good with my share at least. (Union dues may also be tax deductible)

        Don’t speak for others, please. I personally don’t fancy a lunatic deciding I should get a nuke dropped on me. If you want to be suicidal, do it without harming others. Or even better - get professional help.
