Sophistry | Income Tax Laws not real? |
I hear that it is not in the constitution that we must pay income taxes. Is this true? |

No, it is not true.
Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution states, "The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes,..." There are only two limitations on that power. First, the above mentioned taxes must be uniform throughout the United States. Second, Article 1, Section 9 of the Constitution states that "direct taxes" must be apportioned amongst the states.
The 16th amendment states "The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration."
What that means is that even if some types of income taxes are considered direct taxes, they do not have to be apportioned.
http://www.senate.gov/civics/constitution_item/constitution.htm
Arguments about income taxes being unconstitutional or income not being defined or any of the dozens of other arguments that people come up with to not pay taxes have all been debunked in court. Many of the arguments are because of out-of-context quotes and fundamental misunderstandings of law and procedure. You can read more about why those arguments are wrong at http://evans-legal.com/dan/tpfaq.html
Accept the fact there is a law concerning income taxes and don't fall for the gibberish floating around the Internet. Trust me, you will be happier if you keep paying your taxes.
EDIT: Re:IRS was setup as a temporary agency for the war.
Someone doesn't know IRS history or the history of income taxes. The first income tax laws in the U.S. were enacted in 1861. The Bureau of Internal Revenue was created in 1862. The income tax laws were allowed to lapse by Congress.in 1872, but the Bureau of Internal Revenue continued to be the collection agency for the various other taxes imposed by the government. Our current income tax laws were imposed in 1913. Since WW1 didn't start until 1914 and the U.S. didn't enter the war until 1917, Congress must have used their time machine to look into the future to enact the taxes before the war even started. The Bureau of Internal Revenue changed its name to the Internal Revenue Service in the 1950s. |

Have you even READ The Constitution? I'd guess not if you have to ask that question! Look at Article 1, Section 8. It grants the power to lay taxes to Congress. It doesn't specify what type of tax; it leaves it ENTIRELY to Congress to decide. And that includes ALL income taxes!
Due to a controversial court decision in the late 1800s, the income tax law on the books at the time was declared Unconstitutional. The court ruled that it was a direct levy and therefore subject to apportionment among the several states. That was impossible back then, but would be child's play in the modern computer age. Effectively it killed off the Federal income tax at that time. In 1909, the 16th Amendment to the Constitution was proposed and eventually was ratified in 1913. It states that incomes from all sources may be taxed without apportionment or enumeration. That trumped the court ruling from 20-odd years earlier and the rest, as they say, is history.
The clowns who say that the income tax is illegal are the ones who are not "real." Tax law damn sure IS real. |

Have you checked out the 16th amendment? That authorizes the income tax, which Congress has imposed. |

Nobody ever really landed on the moon - it was a giant hoax. What you saw on TV was filmed in Utah.
Elvis is still alive, and performing marriage ceremonies in Las Vegas.
It is unconstitutional for the government to tax your wages (income tax), the 16th amendment was never ratified, and most of what we think of as income isn't really income anyway.
Excuse me now....I just won 2 million pounds in the online UK lottery when my email was randomly selected, and I have to go answer the email.....

There is a group that states that the 16th amendment was never properly ratified and that therefore, all laws based on the amendment are "non-law" and unconstitutional. They point to past Supreme Court rulings and other documentation. I have read and listened to their argument which is very credible and persuasive. If it is correct or true, I have no idea.
I still pay my taxes. |

the IRS was set up as a temp agency during the war to fund the war, when the war was over the govt. saw how much money they were getting so they kept it going. now it is one of the most powerful agencies of govt. there will never be any politician who would dare to take on the IRS. oh by the way if you do not pay your taxes you will wind up like WESTLEY SNIPES- 3years in jail for not paying taxes. |

Sure it's true. Actor Wesley Snipes didn't file any income tax returns for the past three years!
OCALA, Fla.(AP) Wesley Snipes was sentenced to three years in prison on tax charges Thursday, a victory for prosecutors who sought to make an example of the action star by aggressively pursuing the maximum penalty.
U.S. District Judge William Terrell Hodges said Snipes exhibited a "history of contempt over a period of time" for U.S. tax laws, and granted prosecutors the three year sentence they requested _ one year for each of Snipes' convictions of willfully failing to file a tax return.
So go ahead. Don't file. |
