WE THE FORECLOSED

Tax protest Honesty Movement leader Bob Schulz doesn't limit his talents to battling the federal tax system. The leader of "We The People" is also taking on Washington County, New York -- with about the same results as he's seen on the federal level:

Last week, Washington County officials initiated foreclosure proceedings against Schulz's Ridge Road property, worth more than $550,000 and located near the border of Warren County, stating that it intends to seize and auction off the unencumbered home and property to collect the unpaid taxes it claims Schulz owns.

Instead of paying the taxes to the county, for the past two years, Schulz in exercising his Right-To-Petition, has deposited $12,000 into a trust account, naming the county as beneficiary, pending a decisive legal ruling by a state or federal court.

I'll have to try that trick in Polk County and see if they will let me withhold taxes until the finances of RACI become transparent. If it works, I'll never pay property taxes again. Of course, it wouldn't...
