During Polk’s war against Mexico in 1846-48 Thoreau decided that voting was too cheap and feeble a response to the gross atrocities: “Cast your whole vote, not a strip of paper merely, but your whole influence.” He refused to pay his taxes and in 1846 went to jail. Prison was, “the only house in a slave-state in which a free man can abide with honor.”
