As Richelieu said "Give me six lines written by the most honourable of men, and I will find an excuse in them to hang him."

I pay US taxes and the US government kills people around the world. They also subsidise farmers which puts others around the world at a disadvantage contributing to poorer economic circumstances for them. The US incarcerates a large number of people. If the project benefited me or anyone else paying US taxes, then hasn't it benefited the US government, and hence evil?

I moved far away from family and friends to stop paying US taxes for exactly these reasons.

Vote with your tax dollars.
