Malkin posts an email from a frustrated business-owner in Californicate.
You know what would almost overnight put this country back on the right track? If even a small but healthy percentage of small business owners such as myself banded together and told the local, state, and federal governments that we are no longer going to play tax collector for them, pay their fees, permits, etc., we could bring them to their knees and force “real” change in this society. It might get to that sooner than later here in California anyway. There’s already talk around business organizations and associations to send IOU’s to Sacramento since they seem to think those are ok. I’m seriously considering paying my employees directly and refusing to collect payroll taxes to see what happens. Who knows, maybe I’ll end up in the news and it will start some momentum. They can’t put us all in the pokey, especially since those are also broke and have no room left!!!
Interesting. Any odds?

I'd be bang along side this. Mass civil disobedience is a great, effective way to get the government to act according to the will of the people.
I'd like to be alongside this, but I get the feeling that, in this instance, an uprising would be ruthlessly crushed.
Can't ruthlessly crush 100,000 small businessmen.
And you don't think others - conservatives, etc. - would stand along side them.
It wasn't just businessmen buying guns after Nov. 4...
