War Tax Resistance IS Courage

Cindy Sheehan's Soapbox
Community Call-in Show

“If a thousand men were not to pay their tax-bills this year, that would not be a violent and bloody measure, as it would be to pay them, and enable the State to commit violence and shed innocent blood. This is, in fact, the definition of a peaceable revolution, if any such is possible.”

Henry David Thoreau

    When Thoreau languished in jail for nonpayment of taxes Emerson happened by the jail on his morning walk. Espying Thoreau at the window of the jail Emerson asked,"what are you doing in there, Henry?" The response came quickly,"what are you doing out there, Ralph?"

    I plan to call in. I found out about this on The Picket Line, a blog by David Gross that focuses on war tax resistance. It's worth taking a look:

This Blog Will Become Inactive Soon (Message from Cindy)

    Still Truth-seeking After All These Years!     6 August 2022   Dear Loyal Soapbox Reader/Listener,   I have had this blog for 13 years now and there are almost 2k posts and 400 podcasts.    This service has become very unwieldly to use with the functionality becoming archaic and as a google product, it has begun to "unpublish" some posts that it deems inappropriate.   However, I will leave it up for eternity because it does have valuable archives and historical relevance, but I won't be updating it.   Please follow me at my new home at Substack   Cindy Sheehan's Soapbox Newsletter    There, I have found renewed motivation and vigor to attack the people and systems of our oppression and I am posting new Soapbox podcasts and have a new Video Cast called: Shee-Lilly which is a weekly collaboration between me and my co-host Dakotah Lilly (a Soapbox friend and favorite).   If you have not already, please check out our new home, and subscribe to get reminders every time

  SheeLilly#2 Cindy and Dakotah Rate the Final Season of the USA Cindy Sheehan Jun 10 Share This week on SheeLilly, Cindy Sheehan and Dakotah Lilly analyze the very collapse of the U.S. Empire that is happening right before our eyes. From Sloppy Joe Biden’s insane war against Russia in Ukraine and the Sanction Chickens coming home to roost here in the U.S., there is very little to be hopeful about, but we find something; If the U.S. collapses, how can we work in our communities to overcome the collapse and come back stronger!
