far east -“I dont like that America is becoming pro gay…i think im gonna stop paying taxes”
You’re probably being sarcastic, but there are many Halachic reasons you might not have to. Ask your LOR -I don’t give Psokim.
One -it says in SA if they treat Jews differently than Goyim you don’t have to. And IMO they do, but this point I’m not going to discuss now.
My other point is that there is a Shitta out there -that noone is required to pay income tax. The guy has written books and never has paid any tax. He spent a little time in jail -so this might be a good enough reason not to, but as far as Halacha -since this is a valid Shitta amongst Goyim -the Gov. either has to change the law or prove that they are right. I dunno -maybe a VAT tax could be legal or they have to prove in the Supreme Court that this guy is wrong -so far they haven’t. Right now the Halacha wouldn’t require it because Hamotzey M’chaveiro Olav Harayoh.
