As the April 15 tax deadline approaches, many social justice people are conflicted about the use of their tax dollars for US mililtarism. Cecil Prescod speaks with Ruth Benn, Coordinator for the National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee about conscientious objectors to paying taxes for war.
The National War Tax Resistance Coordinating Committee (NWTRCC), founded in 1982, is a coalition of local, regional and national groups providing information and support to people who are conscientious objectors to paying taxes for war. On social media NWTRCC is promoting #DearIRS and encouraging everyone to post messages about their own war tax resistance and also released a short video on YouTube and Vimeo called “Letters from War Tax Resisters,” featuring excerpts from letters sent to the IRS, family members, and the local newspaper.

Wrong Program for recording.
Actually this show was the 4.13.15's More Talk Radio Programme, not Ole Mole. Somehow the wrong program was assigned to the podcast.
