I have never heard a good answer as to why we have to pay Income Tax.

I'm not sure if I was in this guys place I would do anything different.

Show me the law!

Unfortunately, they're confusing the words "Morality" for "Legality."  I will never question that income taxes are legal, because they are.  You'll never get me to say that taxes are moral.  Or even all laws for that matter.

They legalized theft, but that doesn't mean it's a moral action.


But this guy has the right idea.  He will make the government take action by force, or do nothing.  If the government wants to steal his money, it will have to do it by the tip of a gun.  And it will show itself for what it truly is.

I'm all for repealing the income tax 'law'.

Afterall, what do we need a strong military, mail delivery, federal law enforcement and other things like bridge and dam inspectors the FAA for?

Gosh, it would be good to get rid of the financing of all these waistefull government agencys.  :rolleyes:

The person who pulls the trigger.  If it was 50 years ago I'd say all police officers would be hesitant to go in, much less shoot.  But with the ninja clad *******es we have now, I don't think any one of them would hesitate, even going in guns blazing.  Sad state of affairs when we use military on our own people.

Odd that they would go to the legal code and not the constitution...

The 16th amendment grants to congress the right to collect income tax but it doesn't spell out the details. That's where the USC comes in.

The 16th amendment does not grant the government the right to collect income taxes.
