If your employer tells you they MUST withhold taxes...

Absolutely. Happens all the time.

>If there really have been cases that determined that normal people have no obligation to pay various types of taxes, then being able to prevent that knowledge from getting out is a big advantage for the regime.

Although there aren't many, if any cases, that say that specifically, the constitutions, case law and statute dance around the truth and are often in line with the constitutions. For example, if I have a **right** to acquire, possess, and protect **property**, no matter what form that **property** is in, whether it's LAND or my LABOR or something else, and it is well-settled that a **right** is not taxable, then... you can find ways to make the proper arguments.
