Last evening, my teacher in India laid out a positive explanation of my 123 days of fasting against the IRS in 2003 to 2004, as satyagraha, bringing attention not in anger but in pity toward the IRS. The explanation is at TheGandhianEconomist.blogspot.com.
With this in mind, I feel it would be appropriate for a public silent protest/ fast (whatever) to take place in Iowa during the caucuses in January, 2012, a few weeks away, not in direct support of Ron Paul, as this would be partisan, but in recognition that he is the first U. S. presidential candidate who has addressed the most immoral issues of the taxation of labor and the redistribution of labor value from the poor into the whims of the political classes though central banking.
