No. You may win your court case, but your legal fees will bankrupt you. You are going up against a kangaroo court. The judge, prosecutor, and IRS are all the Government.
The USSC also made unconstitutional asset forfeiture the law of the land in the Kelo decision.
Kelo was eminent domain to benefit crony capitalists, not asset forfeiture.
SCOTUS actually pushed back against forfeiture in Honeycutt.
Regarding federal taxes, beware that Congress is the real enemy concerning unconstitutional federal taxes imo.
From related threads …
More specifically, note that the Founding States had established the federal Senate partly to kill House appropriations bills that not only steal unique state powers, but also steal state revenues uniquely associated with those powers.
In fact, a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting Supreme Court justices had clarified that Congress is prohibited from appropriating taxes in the name of state power issues, essentially any issue that Congress cannot justify under its constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."—Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
The problem is that the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Senate now not only helps the likewise corrupt House to pass unconstitutional House appropriations bills, such revenues arguably stolen state revenues, but the Senate also confirms activist Supreme Court justices who declare that those unconstitutional appropriations laws are constitutional, likewise confirming judges who order citizens to pay those unconstitutional taxes.
What a scam ! :^(
The Senate, not the Oval Office, is the most unconstitutionally powerful office of the corrupt federal government imo.
And speaking of unconstitutional appropriations bills, Obamacare is a good example of unconstitutional federal taxes imo, the states having never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend in the name of INTRAstate healthcare.
In fact, regarding the constitutionality of the Obamacare insurance mandate, lawless Obama’s state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices wrongly ignored that a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting Supreme Court justices had clarified that the scope of Congress’s Commerce Clause powers (1.8.3) does not include the power to regulate insurance contracts, regardless if the parties negotiating the contract are domiciled in different states. (See the excerpt from Paul v. Virginia below.)
"State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]." —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"4. The issuing of a policy of insurance is not a transaction of commerce within the meaning of the latter of the two clauses, even though the parties be domiciled in different States, but is a simple contract [emphases added] of indemnity against loss.” —Paul v. Virginia, 1869. (The corrupt feds have no Commerce Clause (1.8.3) power to regulate insurance.)
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Drain the swamp! Drain the swamp!
Remember in November ’18 !
Since Trump entered the ’16 presidential race too late for patriots to make sure that there were state sovereignty-respecting candidates on the primary ballots, patriots need make sure that such candidates are on the ’18 primary ballots so that they can be elected to support Trump in draining the unconstitutionally big federal government swamp.
Such a Congress will also be able to finish draining the swamp with respect to getting the remaining state sovereignty-ignoring, activist Supreme Court justices off of the bench.
In fact, if Justice Gorsuch turns out to be a liberal Trojan Horse then we will need 67 patriot senators to remove a House-impeached Gorsuch from office.
Noting that the primaries start in Iowa and New Hampshire in February ‘18, patriots need to challenge candidates for federal office in the following way.
While I Googled the primary information above concerning Iowa and New Hampshire, FReeper iowamark brought to my attention that the February primaries for these states apply only to presidential election years. And after doing some more scratching, since primary dates for most states for 2018 elections probably haven’t been uploaded at this time (March 14, 2017), FReepers will need to find out primary dates from sources and / or websites in their own states.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.
Patriots also need to find candidates that are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers listed above.
This same horseshit gets recycled every 7-10 years.
Ask Willie Nelson, Chuck Barry, Al Capone, et al,... he he
Ed Brown never committed armed robbery. I don’t know where you found that. His wife was a dentist and Ed spent his life trying to prove that as a citizen,he did not have to pay taxes. He was a staunch libertarian. He did mine his property when the ATF and IRS agents came to call. They found a way to get an agent/ mole in to the house and took them down.
Sorry,He was convicted in 1965 and PARDONED by Gov. Ducakis. He was 23 years old. He’s 75 years old now.
