That's kinda the point for me. I don't care if these people are correct.
  1. I know that taxes are immoral and that the legality of federal taxes is at best unclear.
  2. The tradeoffs of not paying taxes is getting thrown in a cage.
  3. Judges are a mixed bag. You might get lucky. You might not.
  4. I have zero interest in becoming a martyr for this cause.
  5. When the state is wrong, it is dangerous to be right.
  6. The general public will not have your back. They have been mind-controlled into believing taxation is NOT theft. Even those that might be sympathetic to my views in other areas.

That's the question, isn't it?
Part of how they enforce compliance is through making non-compliance very costly, whether or not you're right.

The process is the punishment
Only rich people have the legal resources to fight the IRS.
Scientology anyone?

Yep. The process is the punishment. Selective enforcement is a classic communist method to incite fear. The US has so many laws and even just in the realm of taxes. One has to hire an expert just to avoid screwing it up. It's really sick.
