Try not paying taxes to the IRS, or filing a return with one of those "frivalous tax arguements" attached to it, and you'll find out very very quickly exactly what statute/law specifically requires that you pay taxes to the IRS. Hope though that you've got some spare money to pay the fine that the IRS/Tax Court will hit you with for that frivalous argument. And by the way, the fine will not be tax deductible. |

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. |

The Constitution authorizes congress to levy and collect taxes. Their collection agency is the IRS. |

More specifically the sixteenth amendment:
Amendment XVI
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. |

Congress did not establish the Internal Revenue Service by direct statute. The IRS is a bureau of the US Department of Treasury. Department of Treasury regulations give authority to assess income taxes, and collect taxes to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue. This position was created by an Act of Congress, The Revenue Act of 1862.
There is no law stating that the Internal Revenue Service, or other Bureaus or Agencies of this nature, must be created by statute, or by a single specific Act of Congress.
However, all our laws have been interpreted and tested through court decisions over time, and the courts have consistently held that the IRS has the responsibility and necessary authority to enforce US tax law. |

Why don't you just not pay and discover the laws the hard way. Lack of knowledge is not a defense for breaking the law. Do you really think if it was not a legally enforcable thing, millions of people would pay without requirement? |

Trust me, they don't care whether or not you do.
If you don't, they won't mind - though they will most likely take all of your assets instead. |

It starts with The Constitution. It granted the government the right to levy taxes.
The 16th Amendment allowed the government to levy income taxes as "indirect" taxes instead of as "direct" taxes as they were previously considered. Direct taxes must be apportioned among the several states based upon population. That was too unwieldy for an income tax, which the courts had ruled to be a direct tax. Hence the 16th Amendment
The legislation, or law, that covers Income Taxes is Title 26 of the United States Code. |
