Synopsis

Are you getting the most out of your tax dollars? Are you well represented by your legislators? In Washington State, citizen activist Tim Eyman has this to say:

“There are thousands of politicians, bureaucrats, lobbyists, and special interest groups working each and every day to raise your taxes. Shouldn’t there be at least one person, one team, one organization that fights to lower your taxes?”

Is Tim Eyman a sly huckster out to hoodwink the public or is he a citizen activist fighting for the public good? The answers may surprise you!

This is a feature length political documentary which depicts the notorious tax rebel Tim Eyman and his battles with government in Washington State. Through the use of revealing interviews and behind the scenes footage, the ‘minutia of politics’ is presented in a most unusual way.

Throughout the film, we see Tim cut taxes, allow more accountability in government and give more direct democracy back to citizens. Taxation without representation, over priced political programs and other issues (such as Boeing leaving the state) are revealed as causes for tax rebels such as Tim Eyman.

Ultimately, this film is a must see for anyone interested in the inner workings of Government.
