What is the tax law?
After nearly 5 whole generations of people, in the USA have been conditioned to pay income taxes, can ANYONE, anyone at all, show, in the federal lawbooks, where I or anyone else MUST pay an income tax?

Please do not give me any answer that is not where it is listed, bucause nothing else is an answer.
"Because the IRS says so." is NOT an answer.
"Because it is the LAW". is NOT an answer.
You see, I can, with very little research, find out which laws are on the books that define what homocide is and that it IS against the law (that, being that homocide, as defined, IS a crime).
Anyone who wants to, can go to their local law library and find out what the law is. So here is the question, for all of the scholars, pundits and know-it-alls out there:
WHAT IS THE LEGAL CODE, IN THE FEDERAL LAW, THAT STATES THAT I OR ANYONE ELSE, MUST PAY INCOME TAX?
Additional Details
The supreme court, many times ahs ruled the following:
the 16th amendment does not create a new type of tax
2. labor is personal property
3. barter or sale of labor in NOT INCOME, but a fair EXCHANGE, causing no increase.
4. income is, basically, money that your money makes= like capitol gains, lease income, usury (loan interest), but not bank account interest.
5. that, constitutionally, ALL taxes MUST be evenly spread, by either a flat rate or percentage (our sliding scale of percentage that is the income tax is against the courts declarations of what the constitution states!)

anyone who thinks that I am a crackpot, or wants to know the truth about the fraud called the income tax, should view this video:

Its a very difficult question to answer, some say yes and some say no. As of right now I am paying taxes but I have been looking at all the arguments and doing the research myself. If you go to losthorizons.com they seem to have some success in getting all the money back paid in by people. They even have the checks listed as proof.

Some questions that I have since I have been looking into this is why is the code written so complicated that the average person could not possibly understand it? I do not have a law degree nor am I an accountant so how am I expected to understand what this all means? its written in the most complex garbled legales I have ever seen.
In reading the constitution it appears that a tax is legal if apportioned among the states. However the way the tax is collected now does not appear to be in conformity with our constitution. An apportioned tax from what I can understand is this; Congress would decide how much money is needed to run the governement and then would need to go to the states to collect that money. The states would then apportion that tax among its citizens.

The way things are done now seems to be exactly what our founding fathers tried to prevent and in fact started a revolution over. Only then it was a 3 percent tax imposed by the king.. We naw have a much higher tax imposed by the government..

Here is part of the code
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode26/usc_sec_26_00003401----000-.html

It defines wages and also defines employee.. I guess if you are not an employee as defined the the IRS codes than you do not in fact owe any taxes which is what you will learn if you do your homeowrk.. The lonks I have provided are a good start

1. The United States Constitution, Article 1, Section 8, Clause 1, states “The Congress shall have the Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States.”

2. The Sixteenth Amendment to the Constitution,
ratified on February 3, 1913, states,“The Congress shall have the power to lay and collect taxes on
income, from whatever source derived, without
apportionment among the several States, and without
regard to any census or enumeration”.

3. Congress used the power granted by the Constitution
and Sixteenth Amendment and made laws requiring
all individuals to pay tax.

4. Congress has delegated to the IRS the responsibility
of administering and enforcing these laws known as the Internal Revenue Code. Congress enacts the tax laws, IRS enforces them.

5. Courts have historically held there are no Constitutional
or legal grounds for failure to file tax returns and
failure to pay taxes.

6. The term voluntary compliance means that each of us is responsible for filing a tax return when
required and for determining and paying the correct
amount of tax.

7. Failing to file required returns and failing to pay taxes may result in criminal prosecution and/
or civil penalties.

8. While taxpayers have the right to contest their tax liabilities in the courts, taxpayers do not have the right to violate and disobey tax laws.

Title 26, U.S. Code, Subtitle A, Chapter 1, Subchapter A, Part I, Section 1 title Tax Imposed. The language in this first section of the Internal Revenue Code says "There is hereby imposed on the taxable income of . . . ." And that's just for individuals, estates and trusts. Other Code sections cover other entities. But Title 26 is the Internal Revenue Code.

If anyone tells you “Anyone who says that income tax is "illegal" is full of crap” start your own investigation, do your own homework, and see the reality. Reading can be done all over the internet but start here for some insight.

Read the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. The Constitution allows the government to implement a taxation system and to collect the monies.

Anyone who says that income tax is "illegal" is full of crap. Just ask Richard Hatch (the first Survivor winner). He is in Federal Prison for not paying his taxes.

I just pasted my answeer to your follow up question. I can't print out the tax code because there is not enough space. You can find it yourself.

Apparently you didn't do any research yourself. The IRS does not make the tax code. Congress makes the tax code. IRS enforces the Federal Tax Law just like the EPA enforces the "Clean Air Act" another Federal Law.

The question you are actually asking does the 16th Amendment allow for the Federal Income tax?

From Harvard Law School:

II. Federal Tax Legislation: Internal Revenue Code (United States Code Title 26)
Prior to 1939, Congress passed tax laws in the form of a series of self-contained revenue acts. In 1939, Congress passed the Internal Revenue Code of 1939, which was the first wholly organized federal tax law. The Internal Revenue Code has been reorganized twice: in 1954 and in 1986. The Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (IRC), as amended, contains the existing federal tax law and is codified in Title 26 of the United States Code. The IRC contains most of the statutes pertaining to income, estate and gift, excise and employment taxes. The IRC is divided into eleven subtitles, which are each further subdivided. Click on the following links for information on locating, updating, and citing sections of the IRC.

Depending on when your controversy arose, you may need to locate prior versions of the tax laws. For example, for a tax event occurring in 1985, the controlling law would be the Internal Revenue Code of 1954, as amended.
