There are several debates raging on this forum about the IRS scam over the past several days. If you decide to hop in and read some of them, please don't be intimidated. As you read the arguments of the debaters, put yourself in the shoes of a juror: is this person making sense? Is he using facts and law, or just spouting opinions? Is he in command of his thoughts, or lashing out at the other side with ideas from all over?
Most importantly, think of these two points as you weigh the debate before doing your own independent research: First, is the debater attempting to instill knowledge, or to intimidate you as is the IRS custom? Second and most importantly, does the debater have a conflict of interests? In other words, if he is wrong would he endanger his major source of income?
If you're still a filer (a good number on this forum apparently aren't) be advised that the US Congress has been skimming your paychecks ever since the very first one, without being able to show from the law that the average American actually owes it. If this is true, that's the definition of extortion.
If it's true, then obviously it's also fraud. As the tax Honesty Movement now grows past 67 million non-filers, that case will soon begin to be made across America in many forms. Truth will eventually surface, even as it is beginning to surface about the scamming mortgage and banking industries. After a lifetime of being raped, Americans are just sore.
Millions of Americans are now law-abiding, honest, hard-working Nontaxpayers. April 15th is just another day. We don't keep records for the intrusive, extortionist government snoop who wants to know everything we do, but can't show a law giving him/her the right to have that information. Or a huge chunk of our paychecks.
So millions of us have now completely banished the paranoia and record-keeping from our formerly beleaguered lives under the D.C. al Qaeda. Now, we JUST SAY "NO!!" to terrorists impersonating tax agency employees. As you can see, the letter below is REALLY long. Don't bother with it unless you're interested in leaving the "fair share" line.
If you do, first buy a copy of the Tax Code (the Thompson/RIA single volume edition is about $100 online) and highlight it as I show you how to do on my TaxCodeForAll blog. You won't need to read much at all in the Code itself (about 124 lines) but be ready to perform a few months' due diligence (reading and study) in Tax Honesty.
There are presently an estimated 63-67 million non-filers; many of us are law-abiding Nontaxpayers. You can be a success story, too!]
Since learning about Tax Honesty in 1998, I've been a law-abiding Nontaxpayer. IRS has not taken one dime from me, or harmed me in the least during that time although they sent me plenty of harassing demands and evasions (on fearsome black vulture letterhead! Ooooh!!!). For the past ten years in my family, April 15th is just another day on the calendar; we keep 100% of what we earn. But we pay every federal, state, county, local, and school district tax that we owe by law.
Over the years about every 2-3 months I'd receive another invoice or empty threat from some hopeful IRS employee fishing for cash. I always wrote them back by certified mail right away; but two years ago I sent them this tough, heavily-documented letter showing just how busted they really are.
I have not heard from them since.

Technical Services Manager, Group 18 Gulf States Area

Dear Ms. Borop,
The following is my response on behalf of myself and my wife [name deleted] to your assertion, demand, and evasion received by mail dated May 26, 2006 (copy of which attached hereto, Exhibit A).
The stated Mission of the Internal Revenue Service is to “Provide America’s taxpayers top quality service...” which we don’t expect since we’re not Taxpayers. But it also states that your mission includes “applying the tax law with integrity and fairness to all.” You have neither used integrity nor fairness in applying the tax law; you refuse to cite a section of law that gives you the right to terrorize and make demands of a Nontaxpayer.
In my letter to Queen Vaughn dated April 12 of this year (hereinafter “the 4/12 package”) I asserted (8) elements of your burden of proof to establish that either of us is a taxpayer as defined in the IRC: individuals “subject to any internal revenue law”.
[Those elements of proof can be boiled down to six: the IRS had to prove that: 1) they had subject matter jurisdiction; 2) prove that they could stipulate section(s) of law being violated by the average American; 3) prove that the ‘target’ actually violated said section(s) of law; 4) prove that 26 USC 6020 was even lawfully promulgated, and if so 5) prove that they had made a valid 26 USC 6020(b) assessment of the sums that they demand, or 6) prove that their threatened ‘30-day Letter’ is a lawful alternative to such assessment, or that there's some other lawful basis for ‘preparing’ or ‘making’ returns for an alleged 'taxpayer'. In virtually every case, they can't satisfy even ONE of these elements. But most defense attorneys in tax cases are either lazy or incompetent, I guess. The thing is, most Nontaxpayers -- well over 99% in fact, according to IRS statistics -- never are taken to court, or even close to it. IRS prefers dead meat hanging on the tree...Taxpayers and filers!]
In that 260-plus-page package, I established a mountain of evidence that we are not Taxpayers; the most comprehensive statement therein was our 48-point Affidavit of Material Facts (Exhibit O of the 4/12 package).
[Following is a copy of that Affidavit, filed in my county records and sent to IRS early in my correspondence with them. I received this affidavit from the offices of David A. Champion (d.b.a. 'Nontaxpayer.org') along with other letters and things he directed me to send to different IRS offices. I don't know about all the other things, but the Affidavit is critical.
Any fact placed into the public record in a notarized affidavit is assumed established for the record as long as it remains unrebutted. I'm pretty sure the IRS would never let me stand before twelve of my peers on a jury, to teach them how the corrupt Congress runs their IRS check-skimming scam. But if they ever did haul me in front of a jury, I will have these 48 fact issues established for many years in the record, un-rebutted.
Since corrupt federal judges usually will not allow a jury to rule on law (only on fact matters, while the judge lies to them about what the law says) Dave Champion designed the Affidavit of Material Facts to track exactly with the law: take all the major sections of the Tax Code that establish a legal duty for keeping records, or filing, or paying IRS demands, and demonstrate that you do NOT meet any of those, and thus do not have a legal duty to keep records, file, or pay their demands. This is true for MOST Americans who are still in the "fair share" line.
Filing an Affidavit like this one is the first step in building a defense perimeter around your family against DC al-Qaeda terror attacks. If you're adept in legal procedure and love to "do it yourself", I suppose you don't need anyone's help. But for the first few years outside the "fair share" line, I used the services of Nontaxpayer.org because I was low on the learning curve, and they are very reasonable in pricing their services.]

Ms. Borop, we are not Taxpayers; neither of us has a “taxpayer identification number” nor is there any law requiring us to have such a number. You have offered no citation of law that we are subject to any internal revenue tax, but “Taxpayer” is defined in IRC 7701(a)(14) as any person subject to any internal revenue tax. You cannot by fiat or terror, make a citizen subject to an internal revenue tax; we must be made liable by operation of law.
I reiterate the charges made in that prior correspondence, also made to IRS employees as far back as December, 2002: I believe that IRS employees Session, Thomas, Parizek, Egan, Webb, Metro, Hamor, Coogan, Henderson, Miller, Queen Vaughn, Borop, ex-Secretary Snow, and Commissioner Everson are engaged in conspiracy to defraud the American people via domestic terror, racketeering, and mail fraud.
Your actions suggest that Congress and the IRS are willfully impressing conclusive presumptions on Americans while refusing to provide any citation of law proving the citizen’s legal duty to keep records, file, or pay unlawful IRS demands. My 4/12 package was copiously documented and carefully researched, sent to your office at IRS Nashville. Although you refer to it dismissively, you obviously did not read it.
That 4/12 package with its (26) exhibits is incorporated herewith as if attached physically to this letter.
Please review Exhibits A, B, C, D, E, and F of that package to see the unbroken string of “our dog ate my homework” non-responses and evasions by IRS employees, Ms. Borop. In willfully, illegally forging ahead with your ‘statutory’ calendar procedures while evading basic questions demanded by a citizen, you are in violation of the Internal Revenue Manual, the Internal Revenue Code, the Code of Federal Regulations, and the U.S. Constitution.
Unless you can answer basic questions, you have no authority to attempt to trundle us along your procedural track to the D.C. Al-Qaeda dungeon. IRS has been unable to establish jurisdiction over me or my wife (and our property) by citing liability statutes violated. Since you’re perpetrating fraud on a Texan, the Courts of Texas have jurisdiction in the matter, and Texas Penal Code applies to your actions:
TEXAS PENAL CODE
CHAPTER 32. FRAUD
§ 32.48. SIMULATING LEGAL PROCESS.
(a) A person commits an offense if the person recklessly causes to be delivered to another any document that simulates a summons, complaint, judgment, or other court process with the intent to: (1) induce payment of a claim from another person; or (2) cause another to: (A) submit to the putative authority of the document; or (B) take any action or refrain from taking any action in response to the document, in compliance with the document, or on the basis of the document.
(b) Proof that the document was mailed to any person with the intent that it be forwarded to the intended recipient is a sufficient showing that the document was delivered. (c) It is not a defense to prosecution under this section that the simulating document: (1) states that it is not legal process; or (2) purports to have been issued or authorized by a person or entity who did not have lawful authority to issue or authorize the document. (d) If it is shown on the trial of an offense under this section that the simulating document was filed with, presented to, or delivered to a clerk of a court or an employee of a clerk of a court created or established under the constitution or laws of this state, there is a rebuttable presumption that the document was delivered with the intent described by Subsection (a). (e) Except as provided by Subsection (f), an offense under this section is a Class A misdemeanor. (f) If it is shown on the trial of an offense under this section that the defendant has previously been convicted of a violation of this section, the offense is a state jail felony.
You have attempted to establish a claim on the assets of a Texan and a law-abiding Nontaxpayer, Ms. Borop; see that Texas law classifies such activities as yours as criminal fraud. With respect to federal issues, In the context of 26 CFR §601.105 and §4.10.8 of the IRC, the burden of proof rests on the IRS; elements of a case or controversy arising under internal revenue laws are particularized in §4.10.7 of the Internal Revenue Manual (IRM) which I shall cover presently. But also see the introduction to §4.10 of the IRM, and note that the procedure prescribed by §4.10.8 is mandatory.
Per §1203 of the Internal Revenue Service restructuring and reform act of 1998, IRS personnel are required to comply with procedure prescribed by the IRC, Treasury regulations and published policy including the IRM. Despite many opportunities offered, IRS personnel have repeatedly refused to comply with such, evidenced in Exhibits A-G of the 4/12 package.
Your attempts at extortion and years of evasion suggest that IRS is engaged in terrorism – retaliation and premeditated, willful coercion in violation of law and operating regulations. For years, every IRS employee with which I have corresponded has been criminally negligent, willfully non-responsive, and/or palpably evasive.
As I will now list...every one of you has willfully refused to answer our question: can you provide a citation of law establishing a legal duty for me and my wife, both law-abiding Nontaxpayers, both Texans, both involved in no taxable activity that we can find in the Internal Revenue Code?
Can you cite a law that we have violated, rather than continually passing the buck, evading answers, and repeating inapplicable penalty and procedural statutes for Taxpayers? If we are Taxpayers, can you cite any section of law establishing that we are Taxpayers?
No, you cannot. Viz:
IRS Austin employee Nancy Sessions refused to respond on October 15, 2002 as the exhibit in the 4/12 package illustrates; refused to respond to the most basic question of income taxation: where in the law is our liability, and where is your jurisdiction and authority over us in our fact and employment situations – to harass, terrorize, and make demands of us? Where is the law? No answer from IRS employees.
IRS Austin employee Michael Thomas refused to respond on December 2, 2002 as the exhibit in the 4/12 package illustrates; refused to respond to the most basic question of income taxation: where in the law is our liability, and where is your jurisdiction and authority over us in our fact and employment situations – to harass, terrorize, and make demands of us? Where is the law? Again, the IRS cannot answer.
IRS Ogden employee Dennis Parizek refused to respond on December 30, 2002 as the exhibit in the 4/12 package illustrates. Despite the threatening tone of his 3175 Letter, he refused to respond to the most basic question of income taxation: where in the law is our liability, and where is your jurisdiction and authority over us in our fact and employment situations – to harass, terrorize, and make demands of us? Where is the law? Nothing but more evasion from IRS, in precise antithesis to your stated mission!
IRS Ogden employee Deborah Egan refused to respond on May 19, 2004 as the exhibit in the 4/12 package illustrates. She refused to respond to the most basic question of income taxation: where in the law is our liability, and where is your jurisdiction and authority over us in our fact and employment situations – to harass, terrorize, and make demands of us? Where is the law? As always before, IRS has no answers.
IRS Memphis employee Teresa Webb refused to do so on June 14, 2004 as the exhibit in the 4/12 package illustrates. She refused to respond to the most basic question of income taxation: where in the law is our liability, and where is your jurisdiction and authority over us in our fact and employment situations – to harass, terrorize, and make demands of us? Where is the law? More of the same...once more, evasion, passing the buck, and no answer from IRS.
IRS San Antonio employee Beverly Coogan refused to respond on September 9, 2005 as the exhibit in the 4/12 package illustrates. Sending another copy of a 3175 Letter after three years of IRS evasion and stalling, still refusing to simply respond to the most basic question of income taxation: where in the law is our liability, and where is your jurisdiction and authority over us in our fact and employment situations – to harass, terrorize, and make demands of us? Where is the law? No IRS answers; simply more evasion proving your mission statement is fraud.
IRS Nashville Queen Vaughn refused to do so on March 31, 2006 as you well know because the 4/12 package was a fully-documented, carefully reasoned, legally substantive challenge to the NOD sent to us by the Queen [we’re still a bit flummoxed that IRS Nashville is a monarchy; is the Queen a typo or a joke?]
At any rate, Queen Vaughn refused to respond to the most basic question of income taxation: where in the law is our liability, and where is your jurisdiction and authority over us in our fact and employment situations – to harass, terrorize, and make demands of us? Where is the law? It doesn’t exist! At least not so that any IRS employee can cite it. This is the modus operandi of racketeers, tyrants, and terrorists, Ms. Borop.
Our simple demand to IRS for over six years has been: as law-abiding Nontaxpayers, we want to be left alone in our persons and property from state-sponsored terrorism under color of “tax collection” unless you can show us some law giving you authority to make demands of us in particular...not some penalty statute(s) giving you authority to harass Taxpayers in your “fair share” line.
Your internal operations manual gives you no choice in this matter, Ms. Borop. The IRM speaks to this precise issue, saying that citing the law is imperative:
4.10.7.1 Overview. Examiners are responsible for determining the correct tax liability as prescribed by the Internal Revenue Code. It is imperative that examiners can identify the applicable law, correctly interpret its meaning in light of congressional intent, and, in a fair and impartial manner, correctly apply the law based on the facts and circumstances of the case.
4.10.7.2 Researching Tax Law. Conclusions reached by examiners must reflect correct application of the law, regulations, court cases, revenue rulings, etc. Examiners must correctly determine the meaning of statutory provisions and not adopt strained interpretation.
4.10.7.2.1.1 Authority of the Internal Revenue Code. The Internal Revenue Code is generally binding on all courts of law. The courts give great importance to the literal language of the Code.
For all these years, every IRS employee I have dealt with has willfully violated your IRM, and the law. Please note the chapter title, “Examination of Returns” which means that in the examining process you must first be dealing with a person who is required by law to make a tax return, whether or not the person actually does so.
Because such people as us are not required to make returns, we don’t make returns, obviously. Not only citizens of other lands are outside the grasp of the DC/IRS Al-Qaeda, Ms. Borop, even though the income tax industry propagandizes Americans to think so. Any and all citizens of the 50 sovereign States not engaged in any taxable activity cognizeable under the IRC, are among those whom you have no right nor authority to harass, make demands of, or terrorize.
To reiterate, IRM 4.10.7.1 states that you must identify the applicable law, and that’s all we’ve asked of you since 2002. Identify the applicable law! If it existed, how long would that take? A minute or two, perhaps?
But you’ve willfully evaded responding because such a law doesn't exist. The Congress has been using the IRS as its sleeper cells in state-sponsored terrorism...the largest financial fraud in history.
IRM 4.10.7.2.1.1 states that you must correctly APPLY the law, once you find it. It says you must correctly determine the meaning of statutes – not your strained interpretations of them as you have done – and that same IRM section says that the courts give great importance to the literal language of the Code.
So do we, Ms. Borop; it’s our duty as Americans to know enough of the laws to be able to keep government employees from violating or abusing laws. I’ve told IRS repeatedly, we seek to comply with law and will pay any amount due according to law. I’m a Nontaxpayer providing citations of statute, regulation, high court rulings, and your operating manual; you answer with leaflet propaganda and penalty statute cites for Taxpayers!
Black’s Law Dictionary 6th Edition defines the legal principle inclusio unius est exclusio alterius as dictating that “where law expressly describes a particular situation to which it shall apply, an irrefutable inference must be drawn that what is omitted or excluded was intended to be omitted or excluded.”
There exist many sections of the Tax Code describing domestic income that is taxable; I cited many of them in the 4/12 package. All those sections indicate taxable activities and conditions, but we do not find any section of law indicating that our income is taxable, thus “an irrefutable inference must be drawn” that our income is not taxable. We are Nontaxpayers, according to the law.
IRS is in the habit of repeating a mantra: “the courts have ruled against your position, taxpayer!” While technically this might be so because a Taxpayer has filed self-incriminating documents without an actual duty to do so, the moral issue is one of government theft, entrapment, and unethical behavior.
Any federal judge who agrees with Congress’ and the IRS’s entrapment and fraud tactics in this collection and ‘enforcement’ scheme is a rubber-stamp criminal, unfit for the bench. Although “courts have ruled against you” was the mantra against all Black slaves for a hundred years in America, slavery was always immoral and illegal according to the highest law of mankind.
But things are not that bad yet, Ms. Borop. The Supreme Court trumps the federal district courts, and the Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled against your position, Ms. Borop.
In 1904 it said, “Keeping in mind the well-settled rule that the citizen is exempt from taxation unless the same is imposed by clear and unequivocal language, and that where the construction of a tax law is doubtful, the doubt is to be resolved in favor of those upon whom the tax is sought to be laid.” Spreckels Sugar Refining Co. v. McClain, 192 U.S. 297 (1904) [Emphasis added.]
In 1917 it reiterated the law: “In the interpretation of statutes levying taxes it is the established rule not to extend their provisions, by implication, beyond the clear import of the language used, or to enlarge their operations so as to embrace matters not specifically pointed out. In case of doubt they are construed most strongly against the government, and in favor of the citizen.” Gould v. Gould , 245 U.S. 151 (1917) [Emphasis added.]
The Court suggested in Gould that IRS cannot simply grab people’s money because you want it, or because your superiors command you to grab it. If the law has not authorized a certain action and you know it, then you are to report any superior who directs you to steal and defraud citizens! Fraud and extortion are illegal, Ms. Borop, even if your boss at IRS tells you to perpetrate it.
Most likely, your superiors never taught you the history of the income tax. Did you know that the Supreme Court in Pollock ruled unconstitutional the universal taxing language of the Revenue Act of 1894 and directed the thieving Congress to return the taxes collected thereunder? Notice the unconstitutional 1894 Revenue Act wording, Ms. Borop:
"There shall be assessed, levied, collected, and paid annually upon the gains, profits, and income received in the preceding calendar year by every citizen of the United States . . . from any profession, trade, employment, or vocation carried on in the United States or elsewhere, or from any other source whatsoever, a tax..”
This language was ruled unconstitutional and struck down because its test of taxability did not meet the apportionment and uniformity rules of the U.S. Constitution. Its only test was, “Does the person breathe? Then he owes a tax!” This universal taxation idea is what IRS and the income tax and non-profit industry claims the Tax Code still demands. That is a lie.
Such “enlargement of operations so as to embrace matters not specifically pointed out” is fraud, Ms. Borop...and extortion. I know you're likely doing it unwittingly, but you’re engaged in terrorism as President Bush defines it. You should cease.
While the Tax Code is perfectly constitutional now (it only taxes those activities and sources of income specifically pointed out in the law), most citizens have never discovered this; they've been defrauded and propagandised by Congress, the IRS, and the tax industry -- including the non-profit industry and even spineless, legally ignorant “render unto Caesar” pastors.
Still, the law is in effect and you are not above the law, Ms. Borop. What the tax law does not specifically tax, may be assumed as not taxable – especially given that my requests for legal citation have elicited nothing but evasion from IRS for four years. As I've demonstrated, such evasion by IRS is in direct violation of your IRM 4.10.7.1 and 4.10.7.2. Courts have often ruled against your position, Ms. Borop:
“The taxpayer must be liable for the tax. Tax liability is a condition precedent to the demand. Merely demanding payment, even repeatedly, does not cause liability.” Boathe v. Terry, 713 F.2d 1405 (1983)
“The revenue laws apply to taxpayers, and not to nontaxpayers. No procedure is prescribed for nontaxpayers. Congress does not assume to deal with nontaxpayers, neither are they the subject of nor object of revenue laws.” Economy Plumbing & Heating v. U.S., 456 F.2d. 713
“The sixteenth [16th Amendment] does not justify the taxation of persons or things previously immune...it does not extend taxing power to new or excepted citizens... it is intended only to remove all occasions from any apportionment of income taxes among the states. It does not authorize a tax on a salary.” Evans v. Gore, 253 US 245 (1920) [Emphasis added.]
“The individual, unlike the corporation, cannot be taxed for the mere privilege of existing. . . . The individual's rights to live and own property are natural rights for the enjoyment of which an excise cannot be imposed.” Redfield v. Fisher, 292 P. 813, 135 Or. 180, 294 P.461, 73 A.L.R. 721 (1931)
“In view of other settled rules of statutory construction, which teach that a law is presumed, in the absence of clear expression to the contrary, to operate prospectively; that, if doubt exists as to the construction of a taxing statute, the doubt should be resolved in favor of the taxpayer...” Hassett v. Welch., 303 US 303, 82 L Ed 858. (1938) [Emphasis added.]
“Where administrative action may result in loss of both property and life, or of all that makes life worth living, any doubt as to extent of power delegated to administrative officials is to be resolved in citizen's favor, and court must be especially sensitive to citizen's rights where proceeding is non-judicial.” United States v. Minker, 350 U.S. 179; 76 S.Ct. 281 (1956) [Emphasis added.]
When a citizen provides you with facts and law concerning violations of your Code of Ethics for Government Service and your violations of laws, regulations, and IRS published procedure – it becomes legally incumbent on you to prove or disprove those facts and law. If you find them to be meritorious, your duty is then to take appropriate action to expose the fraud.
The corrupt Congress, using the IRS, is operating a racketeering organization as described in U.S. Title 18 Part I Chapter 96, RACKETEER INFLUENCED AND CORRUPT ORGANIZATIONS. Congress is aware of your different collection schemes, and they support them.
In Exhibit W of the 4/12 package, I describe the simple scam you use to entrap citizens (to manufacture a legal duty and create ‘Taxpayer’ status). You IRS employees listed above have violated 26 CFR §601.105, IRM §4.10.7, IRM §4.10.8, and 26 USC 7214(a) by refusing to meet your obligations set out therein. The federal law categorizes such actions as “extortion” and “willful oppression”. As I said at the outset, your sending harassing “IRS Summons” notices to my clients is categorized in the Texas Penal Code (Sec. 32.48) as criminal fraud, a jailable offense in Texas.
You have failed to comply with procedural due process requirements prescribed by law and published government policy including the IRM. According to RRA98 §1203, such failure to comply with requirements may result in administrative discipline up to and including discharge. According to 26 USC §7214(a), acts of omission and commission are classified as criminal, with penalties of up to five years in prison and significant fines for each offense.
You have an obligation to make comprehensive decisions proving by citation of law, the citizen’s legal obligation. Either that or you can pound sand, madam. For the dozenth time since 2002, we demand that the IRS obey the law; cease attempting to terrorize us and my clients!
We stand on the Constitution of our great and sovereign State of Texas, on the provisions of the Tax Code, the CFR, the Texas Government Code, and the Texas Penal Code.
We demand that a copy of this response be made a part of your Individual Master Files in the bowels of the IRS system under our SSN account numbers.
Sincerely,
David M. Zuniga

Im a tax payer im told by the IRS. My husband drove truck for 4 years and now owes taxes. Ive spent my retirement from a job that I had lost for the tax attorneys. Ronnie Deuotch.
Our attorney settled with a contract on a 5year plan. After 1 month the IRS basically re-nigs on the contract and now wants to raise our monthly payment. Our attorney seems to be agitated and wants to get this negotiation over with rather that resolved it seems. This has been going on for a year now.
We currently pay approx. 550 month now. The IRS now wants to raise our montly payment to 900.00
It seems if the IRS gets away with this terror on us. We will end up homeless and with out a job. We owe 50,000. and im over whelmed with the IRS and they really dont care. Can i get some advice on what to do please. I dont no if I can take it any more, this waiting to see what the IRS says. Please help. anyone. Thanks, Rosalind
rmemde1@yahoo.com
i didnt read through the entire thread. Too much. I wanted to post a couple or reliable resources so that people can research the claims in the original post as to USC.
http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/
Here is the one for the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)
http://www.gpoaccess.gov/CFR/INDEX.HTML
Its important to make certain of things yourself, rather than just taking anyones word for it.
So check the validity of the references in the Original post to the USC and CFR before you go on butting heads with the Fed, the IRS and the US Government.
If you put a noose around the neck of a neo con and put him up on a stool, he'll kick the stool out from under himself because "well for better or for worse I'm already here."
dmzuniga I guess you've seen this a lot, but it was unbelievable to me. My best friend's next-door neighbor has an income tax preparation business in her home. She's a very nice woman, and has done this for many years. My friend asked the tax preparer if she could borrow her tax code to check some of the statements I had quoted from you.
Guess what? The tax preparer DOES NOT HAVE a copy of the tax code. She told my friend that she uses "many references from the IRS, but not the code, directly." Wow.
When they try their threat routine (petty terrorists) saying things like "your ideas will get you landed in prison," or maybe "I take it that you know about Ed Brown? He's in prison!" I always answer the DC al Qaeda operative (IRS employee, CPA, tax attorney, freeloading 'man of the cloth') with the simple fact that I obey the Tax Code, and if (s)he can show me a section of the Code I'm violating, I will immediately stop violating it.
Of course they never have shown me such a section of law, not in the ten years I've been demanding it. I get horror stories about lives ruined and people sitting in prison, but it's a big, fat terrorist FRAUD, for these reasons:
1) every case is judged on its own fact and law situation; just because Smith went to jail does not mean Jones will be hauled in. Smith may have held some ridiculous theories; this was true of Dick Simkanin, Al Thompson, and Ed Brown. Or Smith may have signed up as a 'Taxpayer' and filled out tax returns, establishing a prima facie case that he does indeed owe a tax...as Dan the CPA mentioned about Robert Kahre, the fellow in the BTM article who 'beat the IRS' by paying his troops with gold coins instead of checks. Stupid stunt (yet Kahre still won his case against IRS).
2) there are EIGHT filers on the IRS hit-list for every ONE non-filer on their list. Yet there are about 130 million filers and an estimated 67 million non-filers. That's about 2-to-1, so the average filer is FOUR TIMES more likely to be targeted by the IRS than the average non-filer.
So the next time you hear a terrorist in the income tax industry trying to scare you with his latest non-filer 'statistic'...just remember that he's not telling you about the four filers that got thrown in jail during that same period.
Oh...and I am NOWHERE suggesting that any citizen break ANY law, or even bend any law! We want to beat the DC al Qaeda...not join them.

Now tell all of us how you become a NON-Taxpayer when you already HAVE established a contract with the IRS by simply filing a tax return (contract) one year and then you must try NOT to file for enough years that you become a NON-Taxpayer... Can you inform all us of how long that must take to invalidate that Contract you created?? Or how many years of NON Filing makes me a 'NON-Taxpayer'??
What about loans & social services that some people have to have a tax return (contract) with US Corp to use??
Still waiting!!!!
Love yall!!
I was told and shown that a contractee must be aware of what the contract intails and that a contract is
voluntary. The contractor, by law, must fully in form you. When I got out of the tax scam, I disputed the contract and for 3 year they sent "letters' and did nothing. so the 3 YEAR time period passed and now there is no contract. I was told CITIZEN did't owe an income tax on thier " COMPENSATION FOR LABOR" ( pay check) I was told this is one of thier Achilles' heels . But the most important thing about all of this is WORD OF ART. You must understant what you are reading. I had some great teachers and quickly started to understand what the letters from the IRS corp. actually said, which was really thier company opinion. not once did the EMPLOYEES of the IRS answer one thing I sent, including afidavits and default notices. Remember this, they are EMPLOYEES and there are more laws to cover thier action then ours. I to learned the Law and the truth in 98 and in SEATTLE of all places A great lesson in the WORD OF ART. Are you or someone you know getting demands letters from BILL COLLECTORS, third party. Have you heard of the LAW, the Fair Collection Act. A bill collector will tell a friend to take the demand letter and write on it with a big black marker, DO NOT CONTACT ME AGAIN BY LETTER OR ANY OTHER WAY, YOU THIRD PARTY, I DON"T OWE YOU ANYTHING. PER THE FAIR COLLECTION ACT, mail it and guess what will happen, you will get a letter using WORD OF ART. it is a trick to get you to contact them, if that bill collection co. contacts you again after that letter, they have commited crimes and you can SUE thier a_ _ off. Pay the people you owe. A lesson shared and the employees of the IRS COMPANY do the same thing.
(or do I repeat myself?)
Hey, Dan!
I can only tell you what I have done; I can't suggest what anyone else should do. As for your clients, I think that's your job, right?
;)
Please refer back to my original post, above. Did you read it? If so, then you saw that long 'Affidavit of Material Facts' that I filed with the IRS and with my County Clerk. An affidavit, once it is signed, attested, notarised, and filed stands in the record in each point severally, until that point is successfully contested and disproven in the record.
I sent that Affidavit several times, by certified mail (I have the receipts) to the IRS. As you'll see from perusing the affidavit, it's just a laundry list of stuff that I and my wife have never done. But all of those things are found in the Tax Code, specifically pointed out. So obviously they are taxable and there is no doubt at all about it.
We don't do them, so we don't believe our activities are taxable. If the IRS disagrees, and wants a cut of what I make, then they can show me a law establishing a legal duty for me to give them that cut.
Dan, if that law existed, how long would it take for them to produce it? Believe it or not, they have never just quoted Section 1(A)1 as you did, and as Kelvin did. Isn't that odd? But perhaps they knew that we would answer as we have always done -- that according to well-settled law on taxation, "taxable income" isn't just anything that anybody earns in America -- Congress tried that universal "we want it ALL" language in the 1894 Act, and the courts struck it down because it violates the Constitution.
So they had to build a huge, fat, Byzantine smoke-and-mirrors Code, to employ a big, fat, smoke-and-mirrors CPA industry to "help us through" the maze!
Cool, Dan!
But if they expect to get access to any of my money, they're going to have to show me that the money I make is taxable in the law. That is not too much to ask, yet in ten years and many dozen letters back and forth, they have always evaded answering.
So my Affidavit of Material Facts for me and my wife stands in the record in Webb County, Texas...un-rebutted and admissible in a court of law that way.
As for your plastic-banana nonsense about getting out of some nefarious "contract"...you're like the thug guard standing next to the "fair share" line: "HEY!! What makes you think YOU can step out of line, citizen!!??? You have a CONTRACT to keep walking straight ahead...until that hairy fellow up there spreads your legs and..."
Nope; that's not a contract, big guy. It's something else.
In the Affidavit, I admitted to having ignorantly self-assessed and filed when I knew nothing of the history of their racket. I told them that all such past filings were committed under ignorance and duress. After that, according to the Texas Property Code, the IRS cannot have a choate lien without one of two things:
1) an abstract of judgment from a real, live court (not an administrative tax 'court') saying that I owe the IRS "x" dollars; or
2) a signed agreement (like a tax return where I self-assess)
Without either of those things, any filing in Texas records purporting to establish a lien on the property of a Texan is a FRAUDULENT FILING under our laws.
Further, I sent certified letters to my banks (and spoke to their legal counsel personally) informing them that if the IRS broke into my accounts and tried to "sieze" ONE DOLLAR without a signed order from a judge, that I would hold them personally responsible for making me whole, just as if any other bank robber took my deposits.
This isn't sub-saharan Africa, Dan. If some rogue manages to get you signed up in his scam and you later discovver that it is a fraud and patently, demonstrably unlawful, you are not bound for life -- as you imply -- to that "contract"!
Sheeeeesh. You should apply for a job at Wachovia Bank.
www.americanglasnost.blogspot.com
your American Glasnost blog is starting to make sense. just my 2 cents but you should take out all the religion. i do admit i have a sh!tload to learn about this; ordered the tax code, it was 112 bucks but seems like a great investment in my future.
i will likely have a sales job to do on my family, but what else is new?
thanks for your work
i'm just getting into the job market but i sure don't want to live like my parents have; guess i'll buy a tax code and do the markup. may as well not get in the trap in the first place. thanx for your patriot work, dmz.
"dmzuniga",
I'll second that motion. Thanks for all your work; obviously your websites took some time to develop! I've felt so angry at the IRS and so scared at the same time for so many years, I'm ready to take the red pill for Tax Honesty!
I saw that you have the Dave Champion Show on your links at the American glasnost website. Does his nontaxpayer.org group help you become a nontaxpayer? How does that work?
My employer is a great guy and I think he'll listen if I can show him some facts and the law from the tax code. You provide a LOT of that on your website. I just have work to do like you say, before I step out of "line" becuase I know you say they can't hurt you, but it seems to me that I've read quite a few articles in the news about them putting people in prison. I guess we may have to go to prison to fight for what's right, but I'd rather avoid it if I can. My wife and I have three small children and I sure can't afford to be thrown in jail even for a very good cause of liberty. But you say that I'm four times more likely to have IRS come after me if I file than if I stop filing? That doesn't sound possible!
Anyways, I have homework to do too. Thanks for steering me onto the path to freedom. Can I pick your brain occasionally along the way?
"liberty-4-ever"
You're very welcome; I always feel encouraged when the light turns on in another ignorant Taxpayer's head! Please don't misunderstand; I am using the term 'ignorant' in the strict sense, as one who lacks information...NOT as one who is "stupid"!
Can you pick my brain on Tax Honesty as you learn? Sure; but do it here at Break The Matrix, so others can learn alongside you, and so I don't have to repeat myself so often. I spend a great deal of time every week answering Tax Honesty queries...my design clients aren't served very well by that. I love doing it, but not repeating myself.
Please begin by reading the "Introduction to Tax Honesty" on my American Glasnost blog. It will take you an hour to 90 minutes; a lot less than reading a Tax Honesty book. And I promise I've compended the equivalent of MANY Tax Honesty books in that long article; it took me years to refine and finish it.
RE Dave Champion: he's been a personal friend for years. Dave served on my STIRLING Education board, and was one of my sounding boards on the America Again! project concept. Keep listening to Dave; his radio show archives are the handiest, most envigorating Tax Honesty resource available today...FULL of great information to set you free.
Let me clarify what Nontaxpayer.org does, though. As Dave Champion makes clear on the advertisements for that consulting firm, they do NOT deal with Taxpayers to "help (you) become a Nontaxpayer". Let me explain:
Every American is born a Nontaxpayer, and remains a Nontaxpayer until (s)he become a Taxpayer by operation of law, specifically triggered by a Tax Code section. If your activity or domicile category can't be found as taxable in the IRC, then you are not a Taxpayer. Period. A Chinaman or Argentinian is not a Taxpayer as defined in the Code; they are outside the jurisdiction of the administrative agency called the Internal Revenue Service, as are all Americans who are Nontaxpayers. The courts have ruled repeatedly on this:
“The revenue laws apply to taxpayers, and NOT to nontaxpayers. No procedure is prescribed for nontaxpayers. Congress does not assume to deal with nontaxpayers, neither are they the subject of nor object of revenue laws.” Economy Plumbing & Heating v. U.S., 456 F.2d. 713
“realizing and receiving income on earnings is not a privilege that can be taxed. . . Since the right to receive income or earnings is a right belonging to every person, this right cannot be taxed as a privilege.” Redfield v. Fisher, 292 P 819 [Oreg. 1930]; Cole v. MacFarland, 337 S.W. 2d 456 [Tenn. 1960]
“The sixteenth [16th Amendment] does not justify the taxation of persons or things previously immune...it does not extend taxing power to new or excepted citizens... it is intended only to remove all occasions from any apportionment of income taxes among the states. It does not authorize a tax on a salary.” Evans v. Gore, 253 US 245 (1920) [emphasis added]
"liberty", to show you a duty for an income tax, the government must first show you a statute taxing some activity in which you are engaged; some privilege that you enjoy. No matter how often or how forcefully it may make demands, the government cannot extort money under the guise of taxation; it must show a legal duty for such a tax! No common knowledge – no ‘everybody knows’ doctrine – can create a legal duty, "liberty". Only operation of law or contract between parties can do so.
“The taxpayer must be liable for the tax. Tax liability is a condition precedent to the demand. Merely demanding payment, even repeatedly, does not cause liability.” Boathe v. Terry, 713 F.2d 1405, at 1414 (1983)
Pretty cool, huh!? No matter how angry and terroristic they get, IRS can’t cause a liability for you; they have to show you that liability from the Code!
So the only reason you are a 'Taxpayer' in any given 'tax year' is that you self-assess (under penalty of perjury!) and YOU YOURSELF tell the DC al Qaeda how much you "owe" them! When you sign that promissory document, you are creating a contract with a racketeering-and-corrupt-organization cognizeable under the State and federal RICO statutes: the US Congress in collusion with the IRS!
Could you sue them for entrapment and fraud and stuff all these years they've snookered you into signing those returns? I suppose you could, but good luck; their lawyers will weasel around and paper you into oblivion for years. They'll beat that rap; that's why I think we need the America Again! project going in all 535 hometowns of the members of the US Congress. As Lincoln and his mercantilist cronies did to us in the War To Enslave the States: divide and conquer, baby!
It's payback time. Let's ROLL!

All of those federal court rulings are amazing. I wish my husband and I had heard these things 50 years ago. Now it doesn't matter, but it just makes my blood boil that they're such crooks and get away with it.
I had never known that the courts had been so clear about the IRS thing, such a scam. I also never thought to folow the money from the IRS to the real evildoers in Congress. After all, they wrote the law that way apparently as a trap. And to think we never really owed what they took from my checks and my husband's for over 45 years!
My granddaughter took almost three months to teach me how to simply use a computer to go online and to keep up with things. I'm learning so much here; it's as though I've believed lies all my life, and we once thought the people of Russia and China were duped by their governments! Oh, it's so infuriating and my generation just went along through the tulips.
I think I've learned more on the internet than I ever learned in all the newspapers and from all the politicians in my life. I'm glad we're coming closer to nabbing the bums.
so thanks for that. i'll probably be sending you some private messages tho, becuz my situation is different, i think. if you dont mind, that is.
Go down to my post entitled Taxpayer: "How Do I Begin?" and there; you've taken Step One.
No, joining America's REAL War on Terror is not a 12-Step Program, but learning Tax Honesty is something that takes time. For an adept reader (or a CPA, attorney, etc) it will take months; for an average Joe, it may take years. But my American Glasnost blog can save you YEARS of wading through theories and silver-bullet scams. I could have saved my first 3-4 years, the hardest ones, if someone had done that for me. Because no other concise compendium was out there (that I have found), I developed the American Glasnost site.
The "Introduction to Tax Honesty" is the verifiable, self-evident gleaning from seven Tax Honesty books and hundreds of hours reading cases, Tax Code sections, Federal Regulations, and taxation website claims.
But take your time; it's still months until April 15th, your next Tax Terror Season April Fool's Day.

Everyone who watched J.R.R. Tolkien's stories come alive on the big screen, can remember the gut-wrenching tension before each of the major battles of Good-versus-Evil. But they also remember the ending, withal.
Good triumphs.
As you are hauled by your heartstrings from pillar to post by the mainstream media and the DC al Qaeda in the coming days of financial news, please try to see through the enemy's bluster and bluff, to structural ethics and economics. Try to comprehend the manufactured cycles designed (for generations) to keep unthinking Americans off balance and on the run.
As I outlined to "nwind" in my comment on his "Fannie Mae and Freddy Mac" thread, Taxpayers are in for some heavy sailing ahead because there is much financial corruption that will soon be meeting its just desserts. This shakeout of scams and ponzi schemes is a VERY WELCOME THING.
The structural corruption resides behind the twin pillars of Congress' own Mordor: the Federal Reserve scam, and its siamese twin the IRS check-skimming scam. The Tax Honesty movement is chapping away at the base of both pillars of this domestic enemy's fortress. The mortgage industry, like the banking industry, has been welded to the IRS scam ab initio.
You are feeling the first tremblings beneath your feet, not of America's productive economy, but of the IRS scam and of all the cancerous financial scams whose tentacles intertwine with it.
As you will see years hence: if we are an humble, repentant, and diligent population in the main, America will come out of this period far stronger than we've been since before the world wars. With our wonderful Constitution, rule of law, Christian ethos and work ethic, we can become the economic envy of the earth.
But not before the foundations of Mordor are shaken to the ground.

about as far as we can. I'm surprised 'bobo' hasn't glommed on yet. I guess he's not a big student of the income tax scam.
Look, I'm not sure why I invoked that insipid cartoon-dog's name. It's one of the most vapid cartoon series ever. So yes, by all means: down with Scooby Doo, Too! Awrooo Rooooo!
Have any of you heard of Ed Brown? He was convicted by a jury for not paying the income tax. The last I heard, he was still in jail.
that no law exists making most Americans liable for income tax, and that this has been proven in courts of law all over America, numerous times?
Have any of you heard that there are many categories and activities specifically mentioned in the Tax Code as taxable, but that there is NO LAW making the average person's checks skimmable by the corrupt Congress using IRS as the bag man?
Have any of you heard that Thomas Reeves of Paducah, KY made the same assertion in 1988 and the jury acquitted him!
Have any of you heard that Franklin Sanders and (16) co-defendants in the Memphis area made the same assertion in 1991 and the jury acquitted them!
Have any of you heard that Gabriel Scott of Fairbanks, AK made the same assertion in 1992, and the jury acquitted him!
Have any of you heard that Lloyd Long of Chattanooga, TN made the same assertion in 1993 and the jury acquitted him!
Have any of you heard that Frederick and Christopher Allnut of Baltimore, MD made the same assertion in 1996 and the jury acquitted them!
Have any of you heard that Gaylon Harrell of Logan County, IL made the same assertion in 2000, and the jury acquitted him!
Have any of you heard that Donald Fecay of Detroit, MI made the same assertion in 2001, and the jury acquitted him!
Have any of you heard that Vernice Kuglin of Memphis, TN made the same assertion in 2003, and the jury acquitted her!
Have any of you heard that Dr. Lois Somerville of Lake Mary, FL made the same assertion in 2003, and U.S. District Judge Patricia C. Fawsett acquitted her!
Have any of you heard that former Treasury Department IRS Criminal Investigations Division agent Joe Banister made the same assertion in 2005, and the jury acquitted him!
Have any of you heard that attorney Thomas Cryer of Shreveport, LA made the same assertion in 2007, and the jury acquitted him!
(Yep...IRS has a miserable batting average, and it's getting worse.)
Have any of you heard that you can forget Mr. Mann's Potemkin Village; that Ed Brown notwithstanding, all these other Americans stood up to the fraud and WON in court, and that SIXTY-SEVEN MILLION OF US NO LONGER FILE WITH IRS!!? [There are all kinds of people in the non-filer cohort, as is true among filers. I believe that the vast majority of us are conscientious, law-abiding Nontaxpayers.]
Have any of you heard that the Tax Code is just fine (though Byzantine by design) and that it is 100% constitutional and should be obeyed by EVERY American, including government officials, IRS employees, and politicians? That's right; you see, no one is above the law.
Have any of you heard that nobody here can show me an "unconstitutional" section of the Tax Code, because I can prove that it is indeed constitutional?
Have any of you heard that I'll send a $1000 cashier's check to any tax attorney, CPA, or IRS employee who can post a section of the Code on this forum that proves that the average American* is made liable in the Tax Code for keeping records, filing, and paying?
(* By "average American", I refer to anyone living and working in one of the 50 States, not involved in alcohol, tobacco, firearms, explosives, federal employment, merchant shipping, etc.)
Have any of you heard that according to the IRS's own website, the agency recommends EIGHT filers for prosecution for every ONE non-filer? (There are two filers for every non-filer, so this means that Mr. Mann is FOUR TIMES more likely to be an IRS target this year, than the next Ed Brown is.)
So you see that Taxpayers walk around with targets on their backs for al Qaeda; this is how the corrupt Congress has operated for 90+ years. Since long before Ed Brown was born, we've had crooks in Congress, corrupting the IRS to use them as their terror cell.
Have any of you heard that if you'd rather capitulate to terrorist paper tigers, you're welcome to let them keep skimming your checks... but you then have no right to complain about pork, over-regulation, or big government because YOU are underwriting it though the law never required you to do so!?
Have any of you heard that if you want to be on the right side of America's REAL 'War on Terror' along with 67 million other Americans, I offer a free comprehensive "Introduction to Tax Honesty" at the America Glasnost blog?
I don't know if Mr. Mann works in the income tax industry, but I already answered the Ed Brown straw man several times on this forum: Ed Brown held many loopy conspiracy theories; he lived in a bulletproof fortified rural compound in the woods of New Hampshire. Typical of the first-generation 'tax protestor' movement (which began 45 years ago), Mr. Brown held every loopy legal theory imaginable, rather than simply appealing to the plain words of the Tax Code.
I feel sorry for Mr. Brown and for all others who buy 'Freedom Package' scams, or who believe in stupid theories of Admiralty Law, or the Uniform Commercial Code, or "I'm not a United States Citizen", or "wages aren't income", or umpteen other dopey theories. But adults should know better than to follow legal theories; they should stick to the law as written, and obey it.
Also, any citizen must demand that IRS employees obey it, too, when they receive one of those legally meaningless IRS terror letters. You must answer them with law and Supreme Court rulings, and you must demand that they either show the law that you're supposedly violating, or go POUND SAND. (I give you plenty of ammo for this on the American Glasnost blog).
The DC al Qaeda cannot extort you, if you obey the law. IRS employees must not live by theories, or violate the law; that way they'll stay out of prison. The same thing held true for Ed Brown.
Mr. Mann, in case you're not a careerist in the tax scam industry, here's the scoop on Ed Brown. He was what is called an IRS trophy; every Tax Terror Season (Jan 1-Apr 15) the al Qaeda trots out out a few non-filers that are either very high-profile (Willie Nelson, Wesley Snipes) and/or who believe easily-disproven, loopy theories (Al Thompson, Dick Simkanin, Ed Brown) so as to defraud the public into believing that Tax Honesty is flaky and/or very dangerous in any case. Watch them roll another trophy out in front of the press next Tax Terror Season, Mr. Mann. Like clockwork.
This theatre of the absurd is all they have left because every year there are fewer terrorised, stupid Taxpayers in their "fair share" line. In fact, as I said, there were an estimated 67 million non-filers in 2005 and our ranks are growing by several million per year. So the truth is out, and the corrupt Congress is busted.
The DC al Qaeda can't do a thing about their diminishing targets except attempt to push a Fairy Tax on our backs next. We must throw a few hundred of their butts in prison before they can pull that stunt, because as ignorant as most Americans are, they will consider the Fairy Tax to be a blessing! Little do they know, it's been the preferred system of taxation in Europe, and it has virtually no upper limit and is totally unconstitutional.
American self-government is a duty and responsibility. While not all Americans are fit for liberty, a little reading and study never hurt anyone. It's a small price to pay for freedom.

This is great stuff. I feel so stupid for paying taxes for all these years. I need to get to work on this.
We've all been where you are. And so were our parents, and grandparents, and our great-grandparents! The American people have been defrauded of tens of trillions of dollars by the most efficient financial fraud operation in human history. There's no shame in ignorance; the word just means that you lack information. Stupidity is when you get the information and don't do anything with it. It really isn't hard to join the Tax Honesty Movement; years ago it took real guts, I think; today, one in three Americans is a non-filer. So don't feel stupid; just feel 'brave'; determined to never financially support government corruption again!
Hey, I've had a Christian CPA look me in the eyes almost in tears, saying he had never heard any of this! Can you imagine how foolish a professional in tax accounting must feel, for actually not knowing the history of the income tax scam? But I also know CPAs that now take both kinds of clients (Nontaxpayers and Taxpayers) and let the client make up their own minds; some people will forever be terrorised of threats by their government. Look at the posts by my friend Boris on the other thread; he actually believed that being a law-abiding Nontaxpayer can get you KILLED!
State-sponsored terrorism is very common in history, and exists in many nations today...including America under this corrupt Congress. But when enough of us do the right thing (and make our stand public with our friends and neighbors rather than fly quietly under the radar like a chicken-heart), we will start forcing our government to do the same. Then this game will turn.
The world is not what it was in 1913 or 1941, you know. This time when the game turns, the whole world will gain a useful lesson for dealing with their corrupt governments, too.
I just love the information revolution.

I get emails from Taxpayers that are sore to tears from living in the "fair share" IRS gang-rape line. Seeking to break the heavy curse of IRS terror in their days and nights, their first question to me is: "Will you help me?" If they mean will I give them tax or legal advice, or walk them through, or answer IRS bluff-letters, etc... No; I don't do that.
If you're old enough to sign a W-4 like a dummy, you're old enough to perform due diligence as an American; undo the damage you've done to your family all these years!
I don't offer consulting, but I do have a comprehensive Tax Honesty website that introduces you, step by step, to American civics as applies to taxation.
www.americanglasnost.blogspot.com
It contains no accountant gibberish; just plain English, albeit with a great many citations of law and court rulings. But they're in plain English, too.
On that website, I link to former Iowa Rep. Phil Hart's website, where he sells his excellent historical survey of Congress' IRS fraud; shows exactly who said what, who supported what, and where the bodies are buried. That book is called Constitutional Income: Do You Have Any? and is now in its third printing.
www.constitutionalincome.com
I also link to another of my websites www.taxcodeforall.blogspot.com where I walk you through the 2006 Tax Code, line by line that you need to highlight and color-tab so you can go toe to toe with any CPA, tax attorney, tax preparer, or IRS employee that tries to terrorise you by screaming a falsehood: "the law requires you to file and pay!" but who can't show you where the law requires it.
[Don't fall for the Section 1(A)1 trick; read my "Introduction to Tax Honesty" to see how they built the fraud and keep defrauding you. Even if the actor works for government, fraud is a CRIMINAL act!]
I also offer a link to the offices of David A. Champion at www.nontaxpayer.org where once you have determined from the law that you are indeed a Nontaxpayer, you will get excellent consulting services and help with answering terrorists, letter for letter. The folks at Nontaxpayer.org don't play games, or offer theories, or "silver bullet" Freedom Packages for exorbitant sums. They pretty much just spar with IRS for you, using the Tax Code, Federal Regulations, etc. -- things you'll be able to do on your own after a few years.
I used the services of Nontaxpayer.org for about two years while I learned this stuff; then I realised that I rather enjoyed grilling US Government terrorists, and kept up the correspondence with IRS (answered every letter they sent with a letter of my own asking them to show me a law or GO POUND SAND). This volleying went on for six years until they gave up. I had piled so much legal evidence for Tax Honesty into my correspondence file that surely they determined it would be too risky to take me to one of their federal judges' courts, because I would get twelve citizens...and they would get the Tax Honesty story. No kooky theories; just the facts (IRS refused to answer me for years), and they'd hear citation of the law, and I'd read the many court rulings and past verdicts that I have posted on my website -- all of which are favorable to the citizen, and against the al Qaeda.
At this point in America's REAL War on Terror, it really is US against THEM, with the "them" being a palpably, demonstrably corrupt government. But the law is still on our side because Congress had to make it consitutional. And IT IS.
But like all petty thieves, IRS terrorists know who to hit and who to leave alone. If they feel they can't make money, they move to softer targets (Congress likes it that way with their bag men). Just obey the law; learn the facts well enough to use the law as a blunt weapon against terrorists...and they can't touch you.
Once you see that you are indeed a Nontaxpayer according to the Tax Code, you can begin to defend yourself (with the help of a consultant like Nontaxpayer.org) and start keeping your money that the IRS has no legal right to take.
If you work for someone else, this is a much more difficult process; you should not rush it. In the first place, you really need to own a copy of the Tax Code, and highlight it as I show you on the www.taxcodeforall.blogspot.com website. Then go to the American Glasnost website and read the entire 'Introduction to Tax Honesty'. These two first steps will lift a HUGE weight of ignorance and terror rom your shoulders!
Then go down to my American Glasnost site's article called "But What Do I Tell My H.R. Manager?" and with a consultant's help, you may succeed in getting your boss or HR manager to stop colluding with thieves psing as tax collectors.
Remember, YOU are the one that signs a Form W4 when you take a job (or a Form W9 when you work as a contractor or professional for clients). It is YOU that has established prima facie evidence that you are a 'Taxpayer' (defined in the Tax Code as anyone 'subject to a tax hereunder'); you need to now update the records in your boss' files to reflect the truth, now that you've learned it.
Many 'employers' will simply refuse to let you go free. Ever since Congress shrewdly, corruptly kept the blood flowing after WWII by transforming their scam from a 'Victory Tax' into a nationwide employer check-skimming scam, employers are really 'enforcers' for al Qaeda. The reason most of them will not listen to plain truth right out of the Tax Code is that they are AFRAID; don't think it's because they don't like you!
You were born a Nontaxpayer, according to the Tax Code. You only fell into the 'Taxpayer' category by signing W-4s and signing self-assessments (returns) under the label 'Taxpayer' ...and under penalty of perjury which is a VITAL aspect of their scam, incidentally.
The corrupt Congress' IRS scheme is a rather obvious case of government fraud and entrapment, but you still must deal with public perception, and pay for your own past mistakes. Some Nontaxpayers leave their presnet 'boss' if he won't consider Tax Honesty, and they go search out a 'more courageous company'. Every case is different.
Incidentally: if you've already had your knees busted by the DC al Qaeda, please don't fall for those "Do you owe more than $10,000 in IRS debt? We can help!" ads. They don't help a thing; they're working for themselves, just as the corrupt Congress is. They won't tell you the truth about the scam; only help you stay in the rape line but make the ordeal go a little 'easier'. They're parasites in the rape line right alongside the corrupt Congress.
Don't be terrorised by corrupt people and bullies without bullets. Your employees have gone wild for long enough; it's time to cut off their allowance!

Frightened Taxpayers living in states with totally corrupt legislatures (i.e., states that have an income tax) often ask me, "Yes, but even if I start living as a law-abiding Nontaxpayer and stop paying the IRS al Qaeda, won't I still have to pay state income taxes?"
No; according to Dave Champion of Nontaxpayer.org (go to his Dave Champion Show dot com website, to the archived show from July 12, 2008 and beginning at timer 21:16) all state income tax systems are keyed off of the citizen's Taxpayer status in the IRS check-skimming scam. If you no longer play footsies with the thugs at IRS, then you won't have to worry about the thugs in your own statehouse.
I also list a great number of cases all over America where non-filers have been acquitted by juries (and in one case by the judge) when they simply told the terrorists: "If you can't show me the law I'm breaking by not giving in to your demands, I'm not going to file, or pay your demands! Get lost!"
If you don't file federal forms with al Qaeda, then your state al Qaeda has no gut-hook to grab your family by anymore.
Yes, I know it's scary. I was scared witless for the first few years that I stood up to al Qaeda. But after marking up my copy of the Tax Code (as I show you how to do on my blog) and after reading all the rulings by the federal courts including the Supreme Court...and after seeing all the acquittals of law-abiding Nontaxpayers...and after learning that IRS goes after 400% MORE filers (per capita) than non-filers...I realised that doing the right thing by embargoing the DC al Qaeda really isn't that scary after all.
That's why an estimated 67 million of us -- including millions of us in states that collect an 'income tax' keyed to the IRS scam -- have now left al Qaeda's "fair share" line. Our lives are soooooo much simpler, and for us, April 15th is just another day on the calendar!
Ron Paul, eat your heart out, big guy. You meant well, but you're fighting political battles on yesterday's battlefield. Tax Honesty has the crooks by the short hairs, and we're not taking prisoners. Federal or state, the crooks are busted in our homes. Not another penny.

To those who're asking me to help you 'become' a Nontaxpayer:
a) I don't offer legal, tax, or other such consulting; I design buildings for a fee, and I help spread American civics and history for free
b) you don't become a Nontaxpayer; according to the Internal Revenue Code, you become a Taxpayer when you're "made liable" for a tax
According to my ten years' study of the Tax Code, CFR, and court rulings: one is made liable by either belonging to one of the categories of taxable individuals or engaging in the taxable activit(ies) or taxable event(s) specifically pointed out in the Tax Code. YOU MUST DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH IN THE LAW AND THE COURT RULINGS. NEVER TAKE OTHERS' WORD FOR EITHER SIDE IN THIS CRITICAL NATIONAL BATTLE! That is what responsible self-government is all about.
I don't want to sell anything, and I don't want "followers"; I want an eend to this massive congressional corruption, PERIOD.
The American Glasnost website lays the foundation for you in history and law; plus I offer links to consultants, books, videos, etc for those who want to return to their natural condition of liberty under our rule of law ('innocent until proven guilty'), which is the normal category of American citizenship before Congress became corrupt: that normal category is called Nontaxpayer.

Great work on the IRS and the weasles that work for them. I have a relative that used to be an IRS agent in SLC and found in discussion that she did not know squat or have a clue about the law. She only new what she was taught. What I wanted to share with you is a company called HJRbonds.com has decided to properly bond people from the IRS scammers in the event that corrupt judges do what they want (Some judges and courts are afraid of the IRS). In addition, HJRbonds.com has found a proper way to fund the US treasury to effectively discharge debt (actually pay the bank off) for other debts based on the bankruptcy laws of 1933.
Yes, I found the same to be true. After a dozen interactions with them the first few years, a smile began to break across my face. I was finally able to see through a terrorist organisation that issues rubber guns to its agents. It's really not the IRS that is the culprit; those administrative employees are mere dupes of the crooks in Congress.
The corrupt members of Congress are the kingpins; the IRS is just their bag man. Read Phil Hart's masterful historical survey of the period 1909-1913, a book called Constitutional Income: Do You Have Any? and you will see facsimile copies of countless newspaper articles, internal memos, and excerpts from the Congressional Record from the
