The bottom 38% of Americans pay no income tax. Soon to be the bottom 50% with Obama’s new law.

Read the tax code. The only ones that have to worry about evasion live in DC or work for the federal government or informed the IRS that they are required to pay taxes on said money.

The IRC redefines half of the words that it uses to mean the exact opposite of what it sounds like. They aren’t imposing any taxes on me. By filling out a W2 I am stating that I am liable to pay taxes on this “income” and that they are supposed to be imposing this tax on me. Don’t fill out a W2 and you’ve never volunteered to have that money taxed.

The right to work an live and eat and find shelter is older than the United States. Read some history.

Snipes, who has starred in movies such as “Blade,” “Major League” and “Murder at 1600,” had been charged with felony conspiracy counts for participating in a scheme that rejects the legal foundation of the tax system.

Yes it is law. There are penalties, jail time etc. Avoidance within the rules is legal and is what these corporations (normally) do. That is why they have $0 tax liability.

Can’t get any simpler then this. Just search the internet.

“Federal tax law is governed by the Internal Revenue Code (IRC), which is the codification of the rules and regulations promulgated by the United States Congress, and enforced by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).”

As for jursdiction:
26 U.S.C. 7201 makes it a crime (felony) for any person to willfully attempt to evade or defeat a tax imposed by Title 26. 26 U.S.C. 7203 makes it a crime (misdemeanor) for any person required under Title 26 to make a return (report) to willfully fail to make such return. These are just two of the many crimes listed in Title 26.

The Criminal Code, Title 18 of the United States Code, grants federal district courts jurisdiction concerning criminal violations of Title 26, to wit:
The district courts of the United States shall have original jurisdiction, exclusive of the courts of the States, of all offenses against the laws of the United States. 18 U.S.C. 3231. (In Part. Emphasis added.)

It is law and federal courts have jurisdiction.

Further, the key word no one has used is JURISDICTION. Do you pay taxes to Ireland if you earn income in the USA? Of course not. So the “IRS Code” (NOT A LAW by the way) only applies to those who have subjected themselves to the jurisdiction of the Code (Codes & Policies do not apply to everyone. Do you have to obide by GE’s Corporate Policies if you work for IBM? Of course not).

Also, Income tax avoidance (Not evasion) is perfectly lawful. As I pointed out in the beginning of this post. Further, the Federal Government can not impose a tax on a private man who lives in a State (ie Not the District of Columbia), who does not act in inter-state commerce, who does not work for a corporation (ie a creature of the state), who does not have a Social Security #, and who uses Private Money (ie NOT Federal Reserve Notes but Gold, Silver, etc or better yet BARTER – and does not use a bank account). I’d like to see the IRS even be able to identify those who are able to go under the radar let alone claim they owe money. Actually, at the end of the day it doesn’t matter. What matters is who has the most guns. All governments are only able to maintain their power through force or the threat of force. Only “Self-governance”, ie a voluntary society where one is free to leave the system, is truly lawful. And that, went away w/ the Civil War.
