He has repeatedly thumbed his nose at the Federal Government.
Why did he not just pay the 70k and avoid all this?
He had been warned.
Numerous Court orders for him to stop.
Fines and interest
Non payment of taxes.
Avoiding taxes by conducting business in cash.
just to mention a few of the things this fine upstanding CITIZEN has done.
There is a difference between civil disobedience and lawlessness.
I am sorry but IMO he is in the wrong.
