I'll bite. What's the Title/Code reference or name of the US LAW that says
I have to pay Income Tax on my wages?

Cite SPECIFIC LAW, not the bogus IRS code.

Go ahead, we'll wait.............(sound of crickets chirping)


Sorry, it took a little bit of time to pull up the relevant bits.

* United States Constitution -- Article I, Section 8, Clause 1
* 26 U.S.C.

There is NO LAW that requires you to pay INCOME TAX, an UNAPPORTIONED,
Unconstitutional tax on labor.


....what?!

try this Larry. they no longer have controll of the republican party,

you now at this moment have a bible fundimental that thinks the

Says plenty. Just because you're too blinded by ideology to understand
how running a HUGELY successful campaign makes one a leader doesn't mean
he isn't.


I don't recall saying anything about his leadership ability. I may be
blinded by my progressive liberal ideology, but I stand by my statement that
running a sucessful campaing and being president of the US have little to do
with each other. They require different skills and different abilities.
Apples and Oranges.

June,
I do not dispute your observations, but they are too superficial and
incomplete. First there are no successful government supplied health
systems....anywhere. They are all bankrupt and unaffordable. Secondly, you
may shop at K Mart, but you would not do that for your health. The free
health care these systems offer are less than adequate. The treatments
offered are subject to cost and limited to only those approved by the
government. Do you think it is OK to limit procedures based on age? It
happens. Of course there should be universal health care, but it must be
based on affordability, efficiency and offered quality. The plans offered
are not even close. They are in fact, pie in the sky. Change is great. We
certainly need it, but only if it adds value.

Please ask yourself why we pay such a high rate of tax. Are you aware of the
percentage of our taxes that are used just for the maintenance of our
federal debt? How about state, county or city debt? This debt has been
created by selfish, irresponsible lawmakers we voted in. Look at your own
debt. Consider the cost of interest you are paying for your mortgage, your
car and your credit cards. What percentage of your income do you pay for
debt maintenance? Both the American Government and the American population
have been and still is, living beyond their means. Please address that
problem.

Before you criticize the war efforts and their cost, please realize the cost
of losing our financial stability by attacks on our financial system or our
currency. Our national strength and in fact, our entire way of life is at
stake. You cannot see these problems because our media is restricting this
critical information by exclusion. You live in the States and are oblivious
to this. I live in Europe at the moment and in Asia before this. I get to
see the difference, you don't. Please notice that I have not asked you to
vote either way, that is your business. Neither candidate can fix this. It
may not be fixable. This problem will only get worse with time. Each one of
us must change the way we do business and force common sense onto our
leadership by voting for common sense and fiscal responsibility, not free
lunch. This is not a time to let emotion override logic.
Steve

actual minutia is the IRS codes.

Dave M.



The 16th Amendment was never ratified, rendering it moot. Amendments
must be ratified, according to the constitution, protecting states
rights to NOT become slaves of the central government.

The Supreme Court also pointed out that the 16th Amendment did NOT grant
the government any NEW taxes, such as the Income Tax on INDIVIDUAL
Americans.

It IS legal to tax income from GAINS of corporations. That's not in
question. What IS and has been since 1913 in question is there is no
law that gives the government the power to make UNAPPORTIONED taxes on
PERSONAL income....and never has been.

The IRS code is NOT US law. The IRS code is REGULATION by BUREAUCRATS
who were told they had this power to unapportioned taxes on individuals.
Because of a lack of enabling legislation, IRS code is null and void.
Bureaucrats cannot and SHOULD NOT have any power to enable anything
outside US CODE. If they can...we're DOOMED!

If any of you have not seen Aaron Russo's great movie about income tax,
the IRS and other issues, it's MOST enlightening. NOONE would discuss
with him, especially on camera, anything about the enabling law of the
IRS and its taxes.....good evidence, itself, that there is no law....or
they could simply hand it to him in a little booklet IRS is SO good at
producing by the ton!

The movie has long lists of case law about the 16th Amendment to refresh
America's shortness of memory. The voice vote during Christmas recess
that enabled the Federal Reserve Private Bank Corporation to rob the
nation of its money supply and hand control over to the Jekyll Island
Bank Billionaires never had a quorum vote, either. It was a great case
of trickery by the bankers and their cronies in Congress.

Um. The 16th Amendment WAS ratified. In 1913. Which you mention below.

June,
Your comments here are not incorrect, but they are irrelevant. It's not
about the man. It is about policy, beliefs and the trust in the honesty he
speaks. History has taught this lesson many times over.

You show amazing ignorance. Maybe you ought to research Obamas
education, his honors at Harvard (1st Afro American to be appointed
head of Harvard Law Review), his opting to not take all the big money
jobs offered and decided for a career in service. He even taught
constitutional law for a few years. 12 years in the Illinois
legislature and a couple years as a US senatory. The man has character
and intelligence. Things lacking in his opponent. Think on this:



What if things were switched around.....think about it. Would the
country's collective point of view be different?
Could racism be the culprit? Ponder the following:



What if Barack Obama finished fifth from the bottom of his graduating
class as did John McCain?

What if McCain had only married once, and Obama was a divorcee?

What if Obama was the candidate who left his first wife after a severe
disfiguring car accident, which McCain did.?

What if Obama had met his second wife in a bar and had a long affair
while
he was still married, which McCain did.?

What if Michelle Obama was the wife who not only became addicted to
pain
killers but also acquired them illegally through her charitable
organization, instead of Cindy McCain?


What if Obama had been a member of the Keating Five and been chastised
by his peers, as was McCain.?
(The Keating Five were five United States Senators accused of
corruption
in 1989, igniting a major political scandal as part of the larger
Savings
and Loan crisis of the late 1980s and early 1990s.)

What if McCain was a charismatic, eloquent speaker?

What if Obama couldn't read from a teleprompter?

What if Obama was the one who had military experience that included
discipline problems and a record of crashing seven planes?

What if Obama was the one who was known to display publicly, on many
occasions, a serious anger management problem, including calling his
wife a c**t in front of a group of reporters?

What if Michelle Obama's family had made their millions from beer
distribution?

What if the Obamas had adopted a white child?


What if Obama was 72 years old with 4 bouts of cancer behind him,who
is periodically showing signs of confusion because of what some have
said is the onset of dementia, and irresponsibly picked the least
qualified VP choice and without even properly vetting her, as did
McCain.

You could easily add to this list. If these questions reflected
reality,
do you really believe the election numbers would be as close as they
are?

This is what racism does. It covers up, rationalizes and minimizes
positive qualities in one candidate and emphasizes negative qualities
in
another when there is a color difference.

Educational Background:

Barack Obama:
Columbia University - B.A. Political Science with a Specialization in
International Relations.
Harvard - Juris Doctor (J.D.) Magna Cum Laude

Joseph Biden:
University of Delaware - B.A. in History and B.A. in Political
Science.
Syracuse University College of Law - Juris Doctor (J.D.)

vs.

John McCain:
United States Naval Academy - Class rank: 894 of 899

Sarah Palin:
Hawaii Pacific University - 1 semester (left because she didn't like
the weather)
North Idaho College - 2 semesters - general study
University of Idaho - 2 semesters - journalism
Matanuska-Susitna College - 1 semester
University of Idaho - 3 semesters - B.A. in Journalism

Education isn't everything, but this is about the two highest offices
in
the land as well as our standing in the world. You make the call.


June

Obama has had passing grades with LCV for the environment. Clean air, water
and such are concerns of many people for their grandchildren. McCain scored
0%.

Obama was promoted as support for guy with connections to terrorist. It
turns out McCain gave much larger some of money to same group.

McCain voted with Bush 90% so he claims or brags.

Obama is going to be president as well has an asset to the American people.

I am friends with a guy, lets call him Bob the manufacturer. He has
received many awards for creating jobs in USA and shipping products abroad.
He also does not mind paying taxes.

Obama will be a great president exiting the Bush politics which McCain has
proven 90% of the time his true standing.

BTW please explain what McCain is going to do to break from Bush.

What specifically has McCain done positive for the environment our grand
children will inherit?

What has he done?

What has Palin done good for the environment.
Please list date and action.

My claim comes from 25 years of personal experience. I have lived and worked
all over Europe and I am telling you public health IS a failure everywhere.
Your opinion is based on what? Perhaps books, magazines, TV or was it some
idealist talking trash. Please note my previous comment about the American
biased media. You are being sucked in. Come over here and experiece the
failure yourself. Pay the 55% tax, experience the waiting lines or the
denial of treatment or a drug, because it isn't approved. Watch your
neighbor suffer for a year or more because there is no room in your
designated hospital or die because the appropriate treatment is too
expensive for a person of age. Public health is not the solution for
universal health. This lesson has been learned.
