tax protest case goes to trial

[Paul Taylor]

As I said earlier, ignorance is bliss.

Read up on the Whiskey Rebellion if you want to know what our
forefathers thought of taxes. Most people neglect the fact that the USA
existed for over 150 years without any form of income tax and we were
debt free for majority of it. Why only the past 60 years and we've been
in debt the entire time...doesn't take rocket science.

Keep in mind, I read anything and question it because the person giving
out information has an agenda. Here is the best national newspaper I've
ever read. I still question things, but they report on a lot of
interesting stuff.

I'm done with this thread. :o)

I'm not sure why so many people take the income tax personally.
The income tax (distinct from the capital gains tax, even though they're
paid on the same form) is completely paid by employers.
If you go to a company, and say "I'll do that job for $1", you're an
idiot
if you think you'll have a dollar in your pocket.  If you wanted a
dollar in
your pocket, you would say, "I'll do that job for $1.60 (or something)."
Then, you wouldn't get the job because someone would come along and do
the
job for $1.
If there were no income tax, then you would still only get about 60
cents
for the job, because that's what people are really willing to do the job
for.
Of course, that would also make things like DVD players cheaper, but
then
you would have trouble finding a policeman to track down the guy who
steals
it...
