Currently there is a couple who are protesting their court trial on this premise. They are holed up in their home surrounded by police, DHS, etc and have been for months now. You can search if you want to find it, I won't post any link.
That is correct, on both counts. Income tax never existed in the world until after WW2 interestingly enough started by the good ol' US of A and spread worldwide. Again, EVERY penny that you or I pay in income taxes goes to satisfy the interest covering the loans The Federal Resreve charges our government, right into the pockets of the owners of the Fed, EVERY PENNY and this is a FACT.
The couple you are mentioning are the Browns up in New Hampshire and they are being persecuted in a fascist style which is unreal. Please note many cases came before courts in this country from citizens either being sued by the IRS or vice-versa. No court has ever decided in favor of the IRS when it come to an income tax, why? BECAUSE LEGISLATURE ON IT DOES NOT EXIST.
