Blah, blah, blah. Check the 16th Amendment.

Quote:
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.
Maybe it's being used arbitrarily and maybe there are agents that are on power trips or don't understand the law, but make no mistake about the income tax's legality.

I'll conceed that I haven't watched any of the videos, but from what else you've said, I have to strenuously disagree based on the fact that the 16th Amendment does in fact exist and has never been repealed.

Also, I find it difficult to believe that anyone's house would be under seige a la Waco for simple income tax violations. I would guess that there's more to the story than you've posted, although the videos may elaborate on that. I'll try to watch them when I get home.
