Here's my first draft. I welcome suggestions for improvement and effective procedure to make it real. Let's just keep it simple. I'd like to include a provision for a legal Tax Strike procedure, but I'm observing restraint for the moment. -GaltaRand

“No tax shall be levied in the state of New York nor in any county, city, town, borough, special district, unincorporated entity, nor other administrative entity unless no fewer than 2/3 of the voters or a simple majority of taxpayers therein, whichever is greater, shall first have expressed their explicit consent thereto by vote in the most recent November election.”
