A "Thought Experiment"



Imagine that during the period from 04/10-04/15 of this year, taxpayers sent first class letters (not emails, faxes, e-petitions, etc.) to their U.S. Representative, Senators, the heads of key committees (i.e, Ways and Means) and the White House containing a single sheet of paper bearing the following message:

"NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION."

Followed by a "very truly yours" and their signature.

And think about how the collective effect of a large enough number of citizens shelling out a couple of bucks in postage and 10-15 minutes of their time each might be mildly interesting. Possibly even amusing.

Just sayin'...
