The IRS = crooks

The definition of robbery is "The act or practice of robbing; specifically: larceny from the person or presence of another by violence or threat". Pretty much sums up the IRS doesn’t it? I just got done watching a documentary by Aaron Russo called “America – Freedom to Fascism” Here is a trailer:

Many Americans do not realize that the income tax we pay is illegal, and there is NO LAW what so ever saying you have to pay the tax. The 16th Amendment of the constitution was never fully ratified. A lot of states (PA comes to mind) did not ratify the income tax amendment. Also the Supreme Court in two cases struck down the 16th Amendment as unconstitutional. Go Google it if you don’t believe me. They said if you weren't taxable before the 16th you aren't taxable after the 16th. The constitution is very clear on who and what can be taxed.

The IRS was set up in 1913 I believe to start collecting taxes on the wages of citizens. The government per Article 1 section 8 and 9 can tax people and companies based on gains on profits. Not income. The sales tax is legal, the gas tax is legal, and these are what are known as excise taxes. They are avoidable taxes, or indirect. The government can legally tax corporations based on profit. Let’s say XYZ company makes 50 Billion a year. And they use 40 Billion of that to pay employees, create new product etc… that would leave 10 Billion in profit. That legally could be taxed. The government cannot tax the whole 50 billion because that is total income. It’s the same if I worked for someone. If I make $500 dollars a week for trading my work for money, that’s not profit, that’s income. I’m giving something for something. If I won the lottery for example that is profit. That legally can be taxed.

Just remember this… our nation made it from 1776 to 1913 without an income tax. We won many wars and created this great nation without robbing the people of this land. Why do we need to do it now? Also note that half a dozen or so states have no state income tax.
