All the more reason to abolish the Income Tax, go to a flat rate user tax and abolish the IRS. Now all we have to do is elect some members to Congress who have backbones.
Does she even have a lawyer?
Well, when you start off with a premise as odd as that one, you've already got two strikes against you.
Allegedly...supposedly...
That doesn't generate a whole lot of confidence that their method actually works.
Well... this seems the manner of courts, to declare things based on what they believe the law to be, not necessarily what parties before it believe the law to be. An implied declaration that I am a Federal employee is a new one on me, and as for taxpayer comments, they are always free to include those on a separate sheet in the bundle, inserted in an order corresponding to the form to which they pertain.
STILL, if she paid in a timely fashion all the taxes that a proper form would have shown, why all this folderol. She owes nothing, there is nothing to calculate a penalty or an interest on.
And Lois Lerner and Hillary Clinton remain free women.
I applaud this woman as well. She should be held up in the same way as Rosa Parks always is. She is a hero (heroine?) and if this story ever gained currency it could result in the overhauling of the tax code (flat tax) and significantly downsizing of the IRS.
But, something as relevant as this doesn’t get much milage with the LIV. Plus, it doesn’t fit into the leftist agenda to fundamentally transform America.
Meanwhile Clinton to fundraise at house of tax evading Clinton Foundation donor:
Plus tax cheats Timothy Geithner and Al Sharpton are free men.
If it was conscience and not a gimmick she was after, she could put her comments about coerced signing in a separate sheet in the bundle. And the IRS would yawn and process the payment.
This is the problem in most of these cases. People become convinced by book-hucksters that everything is so simple they can represent themselves. After more than a hundred years of the Federal Income Tax, none of this is simple, new, or untried. There are many decades of case-law precedents on the IRS and taxation. It is a minefield that needs to be tiptoed through with great skill. If anyone thinks they can stroll into a criminal court and cite Constitutional Law without some serious legal representation then they should be sure to wear slip-on loafers on trial day.
Having raised FedGov from a pup, the people are now surprised it has grown into an ill trained monster that growls at its own master.
It started out cute enough as a whelp. It always begged for more, and the Master, being indulgent and of good will himself, obliged. It grew larger and larger over time. Soon it began to growl ominously if meals were not presented on time. The Master grew apprehensive as FedGov was no longer a cute pup but had grown into a beast outweighing the Master and with greater strength.
On a leash, it was questionable as to whether FedGov or the Master was in control. FedGov went where it wanted, when it wanted, with Master in tow. For awhile, Master convinced himself that this was the direction he would have chosen anyway. This fiction was difficult to preserve whenFedGov sometimes decided to veer into a bramble while attempting to chase a rabbit.
The Master grew concerned by FedGov’s behavior, but attempts at controlling it grew increasingly dangerous. Attempting to take away the food bowl resulted in FedGov giving the Master a nasty bite. The Master realized he was no longer the master.
It worked pretty well for her, didn’t it? Tax free room and board for 18 months. It’s my recollection that at the end of the first term, they can repeat the cycle. So she can theoretically spend the rest of her life living off the taxpayers. (Been a while since I’ve read up on federal criminal contempt).
Writeup here is a little more clear as to what happened:
Great, now I have to pay money for this woman to sit in prison and get free food and housing on my tax dollar.
I laud the victim’s refusal to cooperate with the judge’s (an idiot)...
...
Really? You post a one-sided account of how to get thrown in jail and you think the judge is an idiot.
Hell, we shouldn’t pay until Lois Lerner coughs up those emails.
There's a fantasy for the ages.
Bingo. The IRS is a collection agency. period. The IRS is on a leash and the other end of that long leash lays at the feet of Congress. The Uniparty will never give that up. The IRS is their cash register.
