Some links from here and there:
- There’s a new issue of NWTRCC’s newsletter out, with content including:
- a recap of the on-line lecture on tax resistance tactics I gave for the #MoneyRebellion group of environmental activists from the U.K.
- an overview of the last NWTRCC national conference
- counselors’ notes, including:
- The IRS is still (improperly) threatening people with frivolous filing penalties if they send letters of protest along with their tax returns.
- The new QR-codes that the IRS has started to include on past-due notices present a possible security issue for some tax resisters.
- An appeals court affirmed that you cannot discharge federal tax debt in bankruptcy if you have willfully “attempted in any manner to evade or defeat” the tax.
- Ruth Benn shares her thoughts on how “all-or-nothing syndrome” keeps some people from considering resistance, and Ilene Roizman shares her struggle to purchase health insurance as a self-employed non-filer (both of these have appeared previously on NWTRCC’s blog).
- Traffic ticket robots continue to succumb to attacks of enraged motorists, lately in Canada, France, Reunion, & Germany, and France, Reunion, Guadeloupe, & Qatar.
- Meanwhile, I’m starting to think it would be more newsworthy if there weren’t another tax strike brewing in South Kivu.
