[Magical Mystery Media 10/12/2016] Is Income Tax Illegal? AMERICA: FREEDOM TO FASCISM

from The Stories We Tell in the Dark

Is the federal income tax unconstitutional? Is it a fraud perpetrated by a cabal of sneaky elites pushing their self-serving agenda through nefarious means? That would be nice, wouldn't it?

He put this thing together in the last years of his life as he struggled under a $2 million tax debt. He was certain he had found evidence of the unconstitutionality of the United States Federal Income Tax, and was determined to spread the word far and wide, calling for nothing short of revolution.
