How do I stop paying taxes? They are automatically deducted from my paychecks before I see any money myself. Also stores will refuse to sell to me if I don’t pay sales tax.
Assuming you’re on a W2, add deductions until your tax per paycheck is 0. You’ll get a bill for the full amount next time you file. You’re free to not pay it, get charged huge fines, and possibly end up in federal prison like Nico198x apparently wants you to.
They can also just empty your bank account, and then possibly send you to federal prison. No big deal
Good point, I forgot about garnishment
Isn’t there something with exemptions you can do so you don’t send them money ahead of time?
And yeah, only income tax do you have any control over.
Yes, v you can adjust your w4 withholding deductions with your employer. But there’s a penalty for underpaying to specifically prevent you from doing this. And unlike for rich people, w2 worker audits can be done basically automatically without any human input because it’s super easy to calculate, as your employer tells the IRS how much you earned that year
So you have an option.
None of this is ever going to be easy.
If you don’t pay what you owe, they garnish your wages and make you pay even more! Woo, you beat fascism.
Yes, you have the option of going to prison for tax evasion.
