52649, RE: What is the definition of the word Income as used in the Internal Revenue code? Posted by Shelly, Mon Jan-19-04 07:32 PM
"Not one person, lawyer, accountant or tax preparer that I've asked this question can answer it, and I have asked many. Not one. If I called the County Sheriff and asked him what statute would I be violating if I take my neighbors car without asking him, he would say Wisconsin state statutes § XXXXXXXX Grand Theft Auto. The law can be looked up in a book of Wisconsin state statutes. It is knowable. The same cannot be said about the income tax law. I've looked."
That is utter bull, Hal. Your problem is that you have been reading the nonsense from the few nuts that are not already in prison that maintain that there is no legal basis for the income tax and you don't have to pay it. You might be better off actually reading the US Constitution, specifically the 16th amendment, passed in 1913.
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.
