Effective Altruists aren't all bad, I guess:

"About twenty years ago, I stopped paying U.S. federal income taxes. By law, the government has ten years to collect an unpaid tax bill, whereafter a sort of statute of limitations kicks in and the bill becomes permanently noncollectable. I’ve adopted the practice of waiting out this ten-year period and then donating the amount of the uncollected tax to charity, typically the Top Charities Fund organized by GiveWell.[1] Over the past six years I’ve redirected over $30,000 from the U.S. Treasury to charity in this way.

In this post I’ll briefly outline the theory and practice of this sort of tax redirection, and address some likely objections. "
