Federal Reserve & Unconstitutional Income Tax

MeatProduct

I've heard a few times in the recent past that there is no legal requirement for people in the USA to pay a tax on their earnings. Every time I heard this I just thought it was nonsense and didn't pay much attention to it but it seems to keep coming up.

Last night I came across an interview with a guy who's made a film that addresses this - link to interview. Link to website.

I find myself being more and more convinced that this is real but I'd like to hear from people here that are better informed than I on this subject. If true, it really is rather unsettling and it could make people in the USA quite upset, I certainly would be if that was the case in Ireland. Which is something I've never investigated, I just assumed that there is a legal requirement to pay income tax in this country.

Thank you all for your time,

Nick

Haha, not paying income tax is the issue which deserved highlighting in the film?

You could do an Irish version based on VRT ;-)

Lets face it, if TPTB want to fleece their populations for their bread and circuses programs, there is not alot you can do about it

brilliant attitude.

Meh

This is pure crackpottery. These "tax protesters" regularly end up in jail for nonpayment of taxes despite their spurious legal arguments.

I believe the film you're referring to is America from Freedom to Fascism, i saw it while i was over in the states this summer, it was intriguing and better than any of Michael Moore's works put together. According to russo the director there is no law requiring people to pay an income tax and that according to U.S. constitution taxes only apply to businesses and profit making not ones labour. It also raises questions about the IRS, whilst being interviewed in the film former IRS head Sheldon Cohen claims that the Supreme court does not apply to the IRS, the same court has ruled that the income tax is unconstitutional yet the it has also ruled that the IRS is not required to prove that it is allowed to collect tax. Basically according to the film the IRS is a secret, unaccountable organisation with no legitamacey.
