Shit's all sorts of different now.

I don't think so, too. It's much bigger than a paper bag, and he's STILL working on that.

Thrive to spite them

Snipes is involved with Guiding Light Ministries a "church" that just teaches people how to avoid paying taxes. This is a pretty good article about the situation. [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I had a coworker whose line on tax law sounded mightily like Guiding Light Ministries. Creeped me out, he was so intense and wanting to convert.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Those people are weird/scary. Years ago I worked for a credit card company - our department would get all the weird cases. There were these people who would get credit cards secured by their houses, borrow tens of thousands of dollars, and then claim that the US money system was unconstitutional or some such BS and as a result they had no obligation to repay the money.

Once I saw a church that apparantly conviced a couple to borrow $80,000 against their house - the church attempted to legally represent the homeowners in their assertion that they didn't have to pay the money back. Of course, they lost their house.
