We all pay income taxes. However it is "voluntary" that you have to file an income tax return. Why is it that they tax us on our labor, when in fact they cannot? However they can tax on corporate gains. So are we in reality considered individual corporate entities? the reason i pose this question is something i found a bit peculiar. If you get a chance pull out your wallet and/or open your purse and look at your name on your social security cards, Drivers license and credit cards. Also look at your marriage licenses and birth certificates as well. Is your name in all CAPITAL LETTERS on all of these documents? They never want to seem to answer the question at the IRS showing a law requiring a person to have to pay an income tax. However do you think by considering all of us as individual corporate entities they construe income made through our own personal labor as in fact a corporate gain? And if this were the case shouldn't a natural born citizen be able to deny corporate status? Wouldn't this in fact free us as individuals from the IRS and Social security as well? We are flesh and blood human beings, not individual corporate entities correct? Wouldn't this in fact be considered fraud? to informat: Can you then show me a law then requiring the average american worker to pay an UNapportioned tax then? Also the supreme court holds that the XVI amendment did not empower the federal government to levy a new tax.
