Dont Get Discouraged by the IRS

...Yes, all of you be submissive to one another, and be clothed with humility, for God [and his followers] resists the proud, But gives grace to the humble. Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time, casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you. Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. Resist him, steadfast in the faith, knowing that the same sufferings are experienced by your brotherhood in the world. But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you. 1 Peter 5:5-9, Bible, NKJV Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; Genius will not; Education will not; Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. Calvin Coolidge The chief IRS weapon is fear. Fear is the best weapon they have to, in effect, compel people to voluntarily comply. How do they perpetuate this fear? 1. By making your experiences with them so painful, complex, costly, and time-consuming that you try to avoid the hassle by just paying the claim and dont question authority; as we encourage you to do in this document. 2. By trying to shift the burden of proof to the taxpayer. By default, if you dont dispute prima facie evidence presented against you about your alleged income tax liability, then they are guaranteed to eventually win their case. As soon as you learn that your gross or taxable income is misreported by your employer, you should promptly bring it to his attention and raise a formal complaint, and submit evidence to the contrary that he cannot refute, with the law. 3. By abusing the due process rights guaranteed to you by the 5th and 14th Amendments to U.S. Constitution. This means they will try to take your property from you without a hearing or a trial. Then after they have taken your property, you cant afford to litigate to defend your rights, so they have won. 4. By refusing to discuss the legal aspects of the tax laws with you. We called their 800 number and were put on hold for almost an hour and then an arrogant agent came on the phone who wouldnt even give us his name for fear of retribution. Do you think if they were really focused on helping people, and telling them the truth about the tax laws, that they would need to worry about retribution? Then he proceeded to tell us that he isnt there to give me legal advice. I didnt ask for legal advice; I asked him for what legal authority makes me liable for income taxes as a citizen of the united States (not a U.S. Citizen, big difference!) who has income only from within the 50 states. I asked him what his interpretation was of 26 USC 861 that justified his position, and he got belligerent and tried to hang up on me. Then I asked him who, in the IRS, can answer my technical (not legal) questions about 26 USC 861 since he refused to do so. He said the courts. I said who specifically, and what is their phone number. I dont have a name. Youre not being very helpful. Give me a name and phone number and email

address of someone in the IRS who can answer the technical question that you currently refuse to answer, I said. He wouldnt help me. I was polite but never wavered off the point. 5. By not being legally responsible for any of the advice they might give you when you call them for help. 6. By making the tax laws as long and as complicated as they can to discourage you from reading and understanding them. (Title 26, the Internal Revenue Code, is 9,500 pages!) And then when you do the research and interpret them correctly, they try to use scare tactics that are just meaningless babble, including: I believe your interpretation of the law is wrong. When you hear this kind of nonsense, then ask them What interpretation of 26 USC 861 supports any your position or any position but the one I have mentioned? and watch them tapdance around the issue and tell you that you need your own attorney, as though attorneys are the ones who hold the truth hostage for a ransom that equals your income tax check. The courts have consistently ruled against that issue. Ask them for just one Case citation that proves their theory, and ask them if it has ever been appealed or overruled. Then look up the case on the website at http:// www.findlaw.com and call them back about it. The 26 USC 861 - the source position advocated in this document - has never been ruled on in their favor by the U.S. Supreme Court, but there are many of examples where it has been ruled against them, most notably in the case of Evens v. Gore, 247 U.S. 165, where the Supreme Court ruled: After further consideration, we adhere to that view and accordingly hold that the Sixteenth Amendment does not

authorize or support the tax in question. (A direct tax on salary income of a federal judge) You are going to end up in jail if you pursue that course of action. More scare tactics to compel you with fear to be compliant. 7. By using confusing terms and language in the tax code obfuscating it. 8. By obfuscating the issues raised in this document by creating a series of IRS publications that conflict with the tax laws as written (the Internal Revenue Code, in particular), and claiming plausible deniability by pretending they are unfamiliar with the issues you raise. Of course they are going to do this, since they know that they can be fired, and the IRS criminally fined up to $1 million dollars for wrongful taking of taxes if they try to collect more taxes than they are due. Ask them when you call them what takes precedence, the Internal Revenue Code or the IRS publications. They wont tell you that the IRS publications dont have the force of law and arent usable as evidence of reasonable cause in a court of law. The IRS publications are simply hearsay not admissible as evidence, and are subordinate to the Internal Revenue Code. And yet when you talk to the IRS, they will refuse to discuss the IRC and the fraud it exposes, and will try to steer you to the IRS publications instead! 9. By firing their own IRS historian so citizens cant find out the history and the truth behind the IRS and how the truth about income taxes has been buried and hidden deeper and deeper with legalese in the tax code every year. 10. By hiding any evidence they might have about you from the discovery process. Refusing to show you the evidence that they have against you and not giving you a chance to cross-examine any witnesses who are testifying against you. Refusing to respond to your

Freedom Of Information Act queries for their files on you. 11. By mailing you legal notices that expire in 10 days and dating them ten days before they actually mailing them, so that they are expired before you even get them! You should be on the look-out for this and write the date received and the date postmarked on the back of every letter. You might even want to tape the postmark onto the back of each correspondence you get from them. For all the above reasons, you can expect that if you raise any of the issues in this document, you are very likely to be stonewalled by the IRS, or frivolously and illegally penalized in seeking or applying the truth. Thats the only tactic they can use to stay out of trouble and not play a game they know they cant win. Basically, as the IRS has done to so many others before you who pursued these issues, they will likely refuse to respond to your official correspondence or evidence, or refute any of your claims. As you begin to learn techniques for fighting the IRS, you may encounter occasions when they are attempting to assess you with penalties and compound interest. This has happened to us. The IRS has no lawful authority to assess such penalties or interest for Subtitle A income taxes. The IRS has no lawful authority to assess you with a Subtitle A income tax liability because the only person who can create such a liability is you. You can prosecute these same agents for malfeasance, conspiracy against rights, constructive fraud, obstruction of justice, racketeering, mailing threatening communications, and several other crimes. Be an informed Citizen, pro per litigant, voter, and juror. Know your rights and understand the law. Be more organized and disciplined in your fight than they are! Then they will lose the biggest weapon they have to create fear: Your own laziness and ignorance and disorganization. James Madison, one of our founding fathers, said about this issue in a letter

to W.T. Barry, August 4, 1822: Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives. The more you know and the more persuasively and skillfully you can communicate it, the more likely it is that you will win in your fight with the tyrant thieves at the IRS. This world would be a pretty dreary place without hope that things could ever get better and that freedom was the light at the end of the tunnel that we are all heading for. But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and always be ready to give a defense to everyone who asks you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear; having a good conscience, that when they defame you as evildoers, those who revile your good conduct in Christ may be ashamed. For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil. 1 Peter 3:15-17, Bible, NKJV God bless you for your diligence in learning and spreading the truth. Keep up the good work, my friend. Therefore, when you are ever discouraged about our present situation and the slavery to the legal field that we

find ourselves under, read Matthew 5:112 in the Bible, where Jesus offers encouragement to all those who believe in him. Pay special attention to Matt. 5:10-12, which are the last three verses: 3 Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 4 Blessed are those who mourn , for they shall be comforted. 5 Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth. 6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. 7 Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy. 8 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. 9 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. 10 Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 11 Blessed are you when they revile and persecute you, and say all kinds of evil against you falsely for My sake. 12 Rejoice and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you. See 1 Peter 4:12-17 for more inspiration. It is good for me that I have been afflicted, that I may learn Your

statutes. The law of Your mouth is better to me than thousands of coins of gold and silver. Psalms 119:71-72, Bible, NKJV Do not worry what you will say when you go up in front of the judge: Now when they bring you to the synagogues and magistrates and authorities, do not worry about how or what you should answer, or what you should say. For the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say. Luke 12:11, Bible, NKJV And remember that Jesus is your Lawyer and your Counselor!: And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6, Bible, NKJV You will be blessed for fighting the IRS monster and for doing what is right above and beyond your own selfish interests. What greater honor could there be? This life is only an illusion and a test of your faith to see if you are worthy to survive the judgment talked about in Revelations and be rejoined with God. Dont be discouraged! Todays mighty oak is just yesterdays nut that held its ground.
