I have know for a long while that many people in this country find that paying taxes are unconstitutional. I have just seen a movie that I have most interesting and would like to share it with whom would like to see it .Its called"Zeitgeist the Movie" |

If you haven't found one, you haven't looked very hard. Or....you just don't want to find one:
Here it is:
Title 26 - Internal Revenue Code
http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode26/usc_sup_01_26.html |

The 16th amendment to the Constitution
"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." |

Title 26 of the US Code is the codification of the Internal Revenue Act and is the prima facie law covering taxes.
http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/uscode26/usc_sup_01_26.html
Specifically, section 1 imposes the tax.

Section 61 defines gross income.

Just for the points, I will point out that Title 26 of the US Code IS the law you can't find. searching YA for similar questions will find several with answers that included actual bills passed by the US congress to create and amend the code over the years. I doubt you will actually read them. If you actually wanted to know, you would have done that much work on your own. |

26 U.S.C. § 7201 |

The 16th Amendment, and Title 26, the internal revenue code, are the laws that require payment of federal income taxes and set the specifics. Some tax protestors argue that there are reasons not to pay federal income taxes, but so far they have lost their cases in court. Tax evasion is a criminal offense, according to TITLE 26 > Subtitle F > CHAPTER 75 > Subchapter A > PART I > § 7201 Attempt to evade or defeat tax (see last link in list).

You haven't looked very hard! Title 26 of the US Code. Here's a link: http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/uscode26/usc_sup_01_26.html
Keep in mind that there's no way in hell that the government can levy any tax whatsoever if there is no implementing law. There are morons out there who would have you believe otherwise. Ignore them. |

Haven't looked very hard, have you?
Ok, there really isn't one. Call the IRS, give them your name and social security number, and tell them you are onto their little scam and won't be participating any more. Even better, don't just call, send them a letter. |

Instead of getting into arguments on this point file your returns regularly, pay taxes and relax. |

There really is none. People have just been filing tax returns and paying billions of dollars or going to jail for not filing returns for over 90 years just because it feels good and they don't want all that money and the the tooth fairy tells them too. |

How long have you been looking? |

the problem is that there is a law, that would send you to jail if you did not pay income tax. however you can fight against the government and bring up very useful points. first how would they kno how much you make, 4th admendment requires them to have a warrant for searches and seizures, 5th you wouldn't have to tell them coz it would be self incriminating evidence. not to mention congress shall make no law that imposes any direct tax. |

Or visiting a park . . .
A fool's quest is at least free in this case !
