Is it time for California tax payers to lead a financial revolution?

California has passed a budget, with tax increases and failure to utilize resources at hand that would have reduced the budget deficiet without cuts or tax increases. This coupled with the federal goverments, punishing hardworking, honest, tax paying citizens and rewarding those that refuse to work, enter illegally, and fail to pay taxes or their credit cards, cell phones, or home loans. I for one am sick and tired of supporting people that merely take advantage of a system. I will give and help those that need it, through no fault of their own should I decide too. The goverment forces me to take care of people, who's families have chosen not to after they have used and abused them. Why should we any longer pay taxes or any other payments. Give me a free home, car, credit cards, health care and spending money. What, they would put me in prison? Yes maybe one person, but 100,0000 never happen. Am I sure, Yes. Look at how many criminals we are about to release because we can no longer aford all the social programs along with the prison system. Criminals represent what 10% of the population? What would happen if 30% of the law abiding citizens decided to no longer pay taxes. Remeber the Boston T party was started over a whole lot less. Our Goverment no longer represents the will of the people, we are their boss, if they refuse to do the work for us that we require and is set forth in the constitutions, State and Federal, don't pay them. What would you do? Do we as citizens have the courage of our convictions, to use the same tactics that the free loading minority of our welfare state has used for generations to take back our country and state? What say you?

They dug their own grave. They have repeatedly elected incompetent congressman, senators and governors. Their last governor was impeached for destroying their economy while letting their infrastructure crumble and Arnold's been trying to fix it unsuccessfully for years. Anyone dumb enough to vote in the people who did this to their state deserves what they get. They wanted a socialist state where the rich are funding the lives of the poor and they got it. The state's with the worst economies are consistently blue states.
