To get around the do-nothing feds, AL, MS and LA should tell their

feds cannot garnish wages or seize any property of such people for non-
payment of said taxes. If the feds want a fight over the clean up, so
be it.

What your statement says is that you don't know any more about federal
vs. state law than you do about the BP disaster.

I am well aware of fed vs state law and I am trying to use this issue
to push back on the feds. If the feds tried to stop the states from
doing this there would be a firestorm of opinion against them which
might end all the dems ideas of a fed takeover.

Yeah! We don't need gov't oversight for anything. Spill.. I mean Drill baby
drill.
