You tell me, you seem to be the prophet.

[sinkspur]

I've been married for 26 years. I have no idea why anybody would marry for six months.

[Bamabunker]

You picked a broad who you could only stand for six months?
What does that say about you?


This is where your 26 years of prophetic experience will come in handy. So tell me about me?

And you REALLY believe that the outcome wasn't determined before the trial ever began? Here is a clue: THE JUDGE WORKS FOR THE GOVERNMENT!

Here are some links for income tax info.

Real Truth Archives. And especially this one Tax Evasion Video

My favorite download is the video where the comissioner of the IRS is asked a direct question as to whether or not there is a law requiring a citizen to pay income taxes. His response, and the fact that his veteran-IRS-employee sidekick has to come in to defend, is simply dumbfounding.

Go on, educate yourself. I dare you!

[sinkspur]

I don't know you.

Forget it.

If we accept this tyranny, it will only spread.

Then address the souirce of the poison, Congress.

You are so busy fighting the cape, that you miss the matador.

Only Congress that has the authority to change the statutes you complain of.

 

PACIFIC INS. CO. v. SOULE, 74 U.S. 433 (1868),7 Wall. 433

• "Congress may prescribe the basis, fix the rates, and require payment as it may deem proper. Within the limits of the Constitution it is supreme in its action. No power of supervision or control is lodged in either of the other departments of the government."

Springer v. United States(1880), 102 U.S. 586

"The central and controlling question in this case is whether the tax which was levied on the income, gains, and profits of the plaintiff in error, as set forth in the record, and by pretended virtue of the acts of Congress and parts of acts therein mentioned, is a direct tax."

"Our conclusions are, that direct taxes, within the meaning of the Constitution, are only capitation taxes, as expressed in that instrument, and taxes on real estate; and that the tax of which the plaintiff in error complains is within the category of an excise or duty."

"If the laws here in question involved any wrong or unnecessary harshness, it was for Congress, or the people who make congresses, to see that the evil was corrected.
The remedy does not lie with the judicial branch of the government."

Champion v. Ames(1903), 186 U.S. 321

• 'But if what Congress does is within the limits of its power, and is simply unwise or injurious, the remedy is that suggested by Chief Justice Marshall in Gibbons v. Ogden [21 US 1, 9 Wheat. 1, 6 L. ed. 23], when [195 U.S. 27, 56]   he said: 'The wisdom and the discretion of Congress, their identity with the people, and the influence which their constituents possess at elections, are, in this, as in many other instances, as that, for example, of declaring war, the sole restraints on which they have relied, to secure them from its abuse. They are the restraints on which the people must often rely solely, in all representative governments."

Tax evasion websites are a dime a dozen.

I don't care. If you want to not pay your taxes, go right ahead.

But don't be surprised if you are dealt the same fate as the cretin at the top of this thread.

I wonder who these anti-tax nut jobs think is paying for the policeman they would call if they had a traffic accident, the firefighters they would call if their house was on fire, the ambulance they would call if their wife fell and broke her leg, the Army, Navy, USAF, Coastie and Marine personnel and machinery standing watch for them tonight, the highways they drive on, the traffic lights at the intersection, the Thorazine they should be taking....

Seriously, don't bother arguing with these idiots. They area bunch of spoiled children who want us to pay for their free ride.

Be well.

Obvously this guy never read Cervantes.

[VRWC_minion]

He can imagine the clear meaning of the law doesn't say what it says, it ought to be easy to imagine his stay in prision is simply a long vacation to a spa.

[sinkspur]

Galactically stupid analogies.

[natewill]

Look, we all pay taxes. There is a difference between taxes and the income tax. That distinction is not made most of the time. Sales tax, Gasoline tax, Communications tax, Luxury tax, etc, we all pay far enough taxes to run the federal and state governments. What is the problem with questioning authority? I pay plenty enough tax, without having to pay taxes that I am not supposed to.

I just sent the IRS a letter saying that I do not have to pay the income tax, based on the fact that my IMF code is MFR-01, which I found out through the FOIA. Instead of rippin' me a new one, they agreed with me. I pay taxes. I just don't think I should pay a tax that I'm not liable for.

PS, friend in Orlando fell for their BS, paid about $36,000.00 for their tax advice. Lost business, wife etc. Jail for 7 years.

When he sued the "Brave Patriots" who promoted the plan, found out they had filed a standard deduction return every year for past 11 years... while they were making a living by telling others not to pay taxes!

[Blood of Tyrants]

Really? What would happen if you decided not to pay your taxes and that you would NOT answer to the government?

You would end up as dead as the 80+ people in a church in Waco.

You should be allowed a deduction in the year you repaid it under the claim of right doctrine. See your accountant.

[VRWC_minion]

First person to invoke hitler in debate, loses.

[MindBender26]

I just don't think I should pay a tax that I'm not in your highly distorted selfish thinking liable for.

Tell it to Corporal Tillman.

[MindBender26]

You wisely mention an accountant. A good accountant can save you 50% on your taxes every year, and do it perfectly legally!
