What a wuss you are Rat.
I ask if the SC agrees with your belief that MY views on how the INCOME TAX LAW work are wrong, and I get a non answer.
Well, that's a trolls answer, guess I'll have to get a hold of TraderNik's troll translator to understand...

mate, very informative and thanksQuote from Haroki:
FOMC day, markets are flat, so Iâll answer your questions :
1- why does the irs dodge that one simple question?
4- why doesn't the irs commissioner answer the question instead of dodge it with his lame curly shuffle?
5- why can't you show me the law?
The IRS does answerâ¦.

The "IRS refuses to say what law makes U.S. citizens liable for income tax" argument
Some tax protesters argue that the Internal Revenue Service refuses to disclose the laws that impose the legal obligation to file Federal income tax returns or pay Federal income taxes -- and conclude that there must be no law imposing Federal income taxes.
The official Internal Revenue Service web site contains references to specific code sections and case law,[6] including 26 U.S.C. § 6011 (duty to file returns in general); 26 U.S.C. § 6012 (duty to file income tax returns in particular); and 26 U.S.C. § 6151 (duty to pay tax at time return is required to be filed)[19] and 26 U.S.C. § 61 (definition of gross income) and 26 U.S.C. § 6072 (timing of duty to file).[19]
The year 2006 instruction book for Form 1040, U.S. Individual Income Tax Return, on page 80, contains references to 26 U.S.C. § 6001 (relating to record keeping); 26 U.S.C. § 6011 (general filing requirement); 26 U.S.C. § 6012(a) (specific income tax return filing requirement); and 26 U.S.C. § 6109 (duty to supply identification numbers). The IRS web site includes a section on tax protester arguments with citations to statutes (including the 26 U.S.C. § 6151 duty to pay the tax) and court decisions and a 64-page downloadable PDF version of the data, entitled The Truth About Frivolous Tax Arguments[7] and a page with a link to the entire Internal Revenue Code as published by the Legal Information Institute at Cornell University Law School.[20]
2- why did the judge refuse to show them the law?
3- same with the browns.... why wont that judge show them the law.
Like I stated before, the judge DID give the law. That Russo, Brown, and Harlan (? The trial that Marcy served on) disagree that this is the law doesnât make it so. Theyâre just in denial about thisâ¦.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/America:_Freedom_to_Fascism
Under the U.S. legal system, the general rule (with exceptions) is that neither side in a civil or criminal case is allowed to try to prove to the jury what the law is. For example, in a murder case the defendant is not generally allowed to persuade the jury that there is no law against murder, or to try to interpret the law for the jury. Likewise, the prosecution is not allowed to try to persuade the jury about what the law is, or how it should be interpreted. Disagreements about what the law is are argued by both sides before the judge, who then makes a ruling. Prior to jury deliberations, the judge, and only the judge, instructs the jury on the law.[
The New York Times article of July 31, 2006 states that when Mr. Russo asked IRS spokesman Anthony Burke (who according to the article was credited by Russo in the film) for the law requiring payment of income taxes on wages and was provided a link to various documents including title 26 of the United States Code (the Internal Revenue Code), filmmaker Russo denied that title 26 was the law, contending that it consisted only of IRS "regulations" and had not been enacted by Congress. The article reports that in an interview in late July 2006, Russo claimed he was confident on this point. In the United States "statutes" are enacted by Congress, and "regulations" are promulgated by the executive branch of government to implement the statutes. The statutes are found in the United States Code; and the regulations are found in the Code of Federal Regulations. The Treasury regulations to which Mr. Russo may have been referring are found at title 26 ("Internal Revenue") of the Code of Federal Regulations [6], not title 26 of the United States Code.[8]
.........
What this all boils down to Rat, is the inability of some to understand how laws work and are enacted. That some donât understand doesnât make them rightâ¦

mate, very informative and thanks
just one comment though, and not particularly directed at you personally, and this is by no means a US-IRS-only type problem, but... when are u guys going to SIMPLIFY your tax code?
i mean, how fair is it to expect every single citizen no matter how (un)educated to be able - am not saying "willing" - to cut thru that jungle in a less than exhorbitantly taxing amount of time by themselves?
having said that, people who refuse to pay their taxes after all legit recourses have been exhausted should go to jail, NOW!
Quote from Haroki:
Ok, finally a statement.
So McFadden's speech was on the Fed, and how they're a bunch of crooks interested in enriching themselves. If it's relevant to whether or not the current tax laws are legal or not , I sure don't see it. Rather, it looks like you're trying to make a connection between the Fed and how taxes wouldn't need to be paid if the Fed was abolished, or something similar. That's a different issue, hence, off topic.
