I guess one could either find a job that paid less than the
minimum wage for paying taxes. .  There was an article in the dallas paper about
a minister who left his job because they refused to cut his
salary.  He found a job ministering to the poor in Louisiana.

Or one could give one's money to charity.  I don't know whether
there is a limit on the percentage of your income you could give
to charity but you could at least give up to that limit.

Or you could defer your income.  I worked for a small company for
a while and had them defer large amounts of my income.  I did it
so they could pay it back later when I would be in graduate school
and be in a less bracket.  I guess you could simply permanently
defer it (or at least until you became less concerned about the
defense industry or they stopped doing whatever it is that you don't like.)

I'll stop before I start bring too much net.tax stuff into net.philosphy.
