Answer 1

There are many videos out there that tell you can do illegal things without getting in trouble. They are wrong.

26 USC 7203 -- makes it a federal crime to fail to pay taxes, or fail to file an income tax return.

And it gets enforced, harshly.

Answer 2

I didn't take time to watch the video... but it has been my observation that the people that claim that Americans don't have to pay income taxes are either in jail or soon will be. It's a lost cause... governments, including this government, won't give up the ability to tax... Better is to abolish the IRS and institute the Fair tax (consumption tax)... at least that way there will no longer be favors and rewards passed out by the Congress... and those whose wealth isn't derived from income will then be taxed as the rest of us... No more free ride for illegals, drug dealers, those that inherit wealth from trust funds (Kennedy etc)... and more. Don't fight the system, change it.

Answer 3

It's complicated, but here's your answer:
http://www.cptexas.org/taxbasics101.shtml

"Note that there is no authority in the Constitution for Congress to directly tax the citizen, nor has it ever done so, making the Internal Revenue Code one-hundred percent constitutional in its application.

The U.S. citizen becomes liable for internal taxation only when engaged in an activity not of unalienable right - i.e., one which can be regulated and licensed by the federal government. All laws pertaining to property being the sole jurisdiction of the states, occupational licenses such as are applied for by a beautician, a real estate agent or a chiropractor, are state-issued and are not a federal matter."

Answer 4

this video is correct, however the gov, don't need a law passed by congress or anyone else as they will do as they please, and it pleases them to take every cent they can from the poor slob who works, their theory is anyone stupid enough to work should haft to pay the price for stupidity, as you know we wouldn't; need to work so hard and long if we didn't pay this illegal income taxes they collect for the Zionist who were sly enough to steal our country, and even when the American people are shown this they still don't have enough courage to make a stand and refuse to bow down to them,.
as one lady stated on answers the fighting blood has been bred out of American white men , our forefathers would have been up in arms long ago,
corygraph is right , however this law was never passed by a majority of the states, which makes it illegal, it was passed only by the ones who sold out to the Zionist Bankers, and these bankers are the only ones who get our tax money, free

Answer 5

I don't like taxes either, but don't bother following any of that tax protester fringe propaganda. Much of it's based on half-truths and outdated case law, and it won't work in court. They've seen it all before and trying to use any kind of pseudo-constitutional defense against having to pay any taxes will actually result in increased penalties and possibly jail time.

Answer 6

Many people know this. Though one could argue not enough, as it doesn't stop the IRS from convincing juries to sentence people to years in prison for failure to pay taxes, etc.

It's also completely voluntary to participate in Social Security (while being almost practically impossible not to), but once they've assigned a number its like the Hotel California.

Answer 7

PLEASE read the US Constitution, especially the XVI Ammendment (16th, 1913) Which does indeed give the Congress, with these bills originating in the House of representatives, the right to levy income taxes against US citizens, before you decide that it is illegal for the government to levy and collect taxes.

This argument has been out there for decades and has gotten lots of people into serious financial trouble.

I have seen the films, read the literature and checked the "facts" most of them are wrong in their interpretation, or just wrong. Please do YOUR homework.

Answer 8

I wish the people who answered the question watched the video, it says that there is no law that you have to pay labor tax. Doesnt mean its right or wrong, it means there is no law.
