in which case definitions and the law doesn’t matter.

up is down and red is black.

why are we following tax law?

i feel as tho i shouldn’t pay. isn’t that enough?
i think it is. therefore i owe no taxes.

in which case definitions and the law doesn’t matter.

Speaking of definitions, here are 52 of them in the law.

USC 8 Sec. 1101
(3) The term "alien" means any person not a citizen or national of the United States
(23) The term "naturalization" means the conferring of nationality of a state upon a person after birth, by any means whatsoever.
(such as one of the several States of America issuing a birth certificate to a child of two aliens, perhaps? hmmmmm)

Those two are a couple of my favorites. Here are two more...
(21) The term "national" means a person owing permanent allegiance to a state.
(such as "foreign" national? hmmmmmmm)
(22) The term "national of the United States" means (A) a citizen of the United States, or (B) a person who, though not a citizen of the United States, owes permanent allegiance to the United States.

That's pretty much right. The only thing that matters is what Judges want to enforce. What the law actually says, and was actually intended to mean, cannot override how a judge wants to twist it into what he wants.
