One of the people I admire most did the following to protest her payment of taxes to military spending. She calulated the portion of her taxes that would have gone to military spending and put the money in several helium balloons and sent them off into the sky in front of the IRS building in Denver, CO.
Of course the IRS did not appreciate her protest and hounded her to try to get the money or take something of value for her non-payment of income taxes but she was prepared and the next year she worked out a way to stay under the paying taxes amount of her salary.
I realize that most people her would think this is unpatriotic and deplorable but one would have to agree that it is very creative.
