There were choices to be made prior to that point.

At lease there's responsibility. It seems you want me to conceed that Rick is not responsible in any way for his lot.

Tell me, is there on line access from jail? I like the amount of freedom that I have!

How is that?

TRUTH! Did you decide to quit your job today and go sell drugs? Rick's only choices in life were not made in that jail cell on that day. TRUTH!

Stop paying taxes? Are you crazy? And go to
jail like Rick? What is that going to solve?

This parrallel is an atrocity! I am SO familiar with the Civil Rights Movement that I am floored by you comparing going to jail for the right to vote with going to jail for selling drugs or even tax evasion.

The American Revolutionaries

I don't think you are in a position to "judge" (isn't that what this debate is about - from your stand point? or was it Koala's?) my level of courage or committment.

And since you brought up history, the American Revolutionary War was about taxation without REPRESENTATION - and for wherever and whatever it is at this point, YOU have the opportunity or choice (boy, there's a good word) to be a participant in your representation. And the war was a concerted effort. Find me some more people that have such an effort for ummmm, what should I say....TAX EVASION. At that time I will examine it and then CHOOSE if I want to participate.

Why don't you get the ball rolling. Email me from Federal Prison. OK?

And I have sacrificed drug dealing and jail time for my principles.
