Yes, there is a law saying that most people have to pay taxes. That law can be found in Title 26 U.S.C.
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode26/usc_sup_01_26.html

Specifically, § 1, § 61, § 62, § 63, § 3402 and § 6011 apply to most individual's situations.

Title 26 is the codification of the various income tax acts that have been passed by Congress over the years. The structure of the current tax laws originates from the Internal Revenue Act of 1954. That can be found in the U.S. Statutes at Large, Vol. 68A, beginning on page 3. The U.S. Statutes at Large can be viewed at Federal Depository Libraries. You can find a Federal Depository Library in your state at http://www.gpoaccess.gov/libraries.html

BTW, "Freedom to Fascism" is full of inaccuracies and misconceptions. Many of the quotes in the movie are taken out of context. Also, many of the so-called "experts" the movie interviews are either ex-cons or have current tax problems. Irwin Schiff, is currently in prison serving his THIRD conviction for income tax evasion. Bill Benson has also been in prison. Joe Bannister, while he hasn't been convicted, has lost his CPA license. Sherry Peel Jackson, has recently been convicted of willful failure to file. Vernice Kuglin was acquitted of willful failure to file, but she ended up settling with the IRS for $520,000 on the $960,000 in income. The amount of income taxes she would have paid would have been about $280,000.

In summary, the income tax law does exist and it is legal. Pay your taxes and stay out of trouble. You will be better off in the long-run.

If you have other questions from the movie concerning income taxes, I suggest you look them up at the following website. http://evans-legal.com/dan/tpfaq.html

One way to find out all the laws is to not pay the taxes. If there was no such law, do you think all the rich people would be paying them?

Why don't you just go ahead and send a letter to the IRS telling them you refuse to file your 2007 return because of a video you saw. Make sure to put your name and return address on the letter.
