The News Current Events and Continuing Education for April 2 through April 15, 2018 “Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.” -James Madison
"There are two distinct classes of men...those who pay taxes and those who receive and live upon taxes." - Thomas Paine C'mon! CtC can't be right! You're crazy! If CtC were actually right, it would mean the government's been concealing and denying the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen... (Edward Snowden, come home! It was all just a bad dream; there really is No Such Agency!)
Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?
I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?
Do you know someone like that? Shake them awake with the latest (fifteenth) edition of CtC!

Fear nothing but God *** -Samuel Adams *** An Open Letter To Ron Paul, C4L, The LP, And Everyone Who Fancies Himself A "Real Republican" ...along with anyone else who claims fealty to liberty and the rule of law. Dr. Paul, and all the rest: Though I'm sorry to say it, the subject today is hypocrisy. YOUR hypocrisy. Let me explain. Over the next two weeks, you are going to sign documents giving the federal government permission to use large amounts of your money to finance or support:
YOU ARE GOING TO SIGN DOCUMENTS GIVING PERMISSION to the feds to do all these things with YOUR money. You are going to pro-actively sign-up as a partner with the government in doing all these things, and you're going to do it voluntarily. Oh, you'll try to dodge responsibility. You'll pretend that you are compelled by law to declare all your earnings to be tax-relevant "income" by listing them in the "income" fields on a 1040 and signing it as true, complete and correct. But you know better. It is 2018. At this point, it is not credible that you are unaware of the $BILLIONS in tax refunds secured by readers of 'Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America'. It is not possible that you are unaware of the 250,000+ government admissions of the book's accuracy, or the even more telling admissions in the form of unprecedented efforts to suppress the book. To not know these things at this point, 15 years on since their inception, is nearly impossible. And frankly, even if you happen to have been so remarkably disengaged with current events over that 15 years as to honestly not know about CtC, you're still not off the hook. You're smart enough to have recognized-- all on your own-- that a 1040 is a declaratory instrument. You're smart enough to understand the implications of that declaratory legal character. You're smart enough to understand that what is listed as "income" on such a form is being declared by the signer to be properly subject to the government's tax. You probably even understand that "information returns" such as W-2s and 1099s constitute allegations by those who paid you that you were paid for federally-privileged, taxable activities. You probably have enough legal acumen to be aware that you are encouraged to attach those third-party "information returns" to your 1040 because doing so makes their allegations into your own testimony. You're also smart enough to realize that the signer of a tax return has a choice. He can declare his earnings to be properly subject to the tax by reporting them as "income" on that tax-relevant form. Or he can dispute that his earnings are properly subject to the tax by not doing so. The signer has every right to register his dispute in that fashion, and doing so is completely lawful. Finally, you're also smart enough to realize that engaging in politicking or punditry against the tax IS NOT A MEANINGFUL PROTEST OF ANYTHING. It means nothing when you have signed under penalties of perjury declaring the government's claim to your enabling funds. Protests made afterward or elsewhere are just theater. The notion that it is a valid solution from any kind of personal integrity standpoint to say, "Here's my money, Leviathan... but oh, I don't think you should have it, and the things you do with it are so terrible... blah, blah blah..." is nonsense. It's just a buy-in to some kind of state-empowering "social contract" bs. You know that. You also know you have the option to actually and meaningfully say "No!" as tens of thousands of your fellow Americans do every year (and thereby keep your money in your own hands, but even if you don't believe that, and figure it will just be seized from you anyway is not relevant to the point here). You just don't have the sand to not tug your forelock and say "Yes" when the revenue-hungry state glares and you and demands that you do so. Further, in permitting the government to tax as "income" your unprivileged earnings-- as you have always done, and are about to do again-- you are participating in a federal imposition of an unapportioned capitation, which is a Constitutional violation. You are being party to a truly heinous crime. SO, HERE'S THE THING, MY FRIENDS: You have no business complaining about all the evils of the Leviathan state while at the same time voluntarily PAYING FOR THEM. Such complaints alongside such compliance is HYPOCRISY. Either shut up and go away, OR (and this is very much my preference), start putting your money where your mouth is (to deploy a remarkably apt metaphor). You probably already DO know the truth. Have some self-respect and get on your feet. If you really don't know the truth yet, here is the law in a concise seven pages and here is how the tax structure works, in a concise eight pages. Get up to speed and get in gear. The rest of us have been eagerly awaiting your company on the field. "Resistance to tyranny is obedience to God." -Thomas Jefferson -Pete Hendrickson *** *Because his earnings have been alleged to be tax-relevant "income" on "information returns" such as W-2s, 1099s or K-1s by those who made payments to him, and he has been made aware of these allegations by being sent copies of these forms, a recipient who fails to file at all is presumed thereby to be agreeing with those allegations by default. *** NOTE: When I say "an open letter" I mean a letter for YOU TO SEND to everyone you can. Ron Paul will never see it on my site. He doesn't come here-- that's the problem. A dozen people have given him copies of CtC over the years. He doesn't read them. Dr. Paul apparently needs to be shamed into reading one of those many copies given to him. The leadership at C4L, and the LP, and all those who fancy themselves to be "Real Republicans" dedicated to respect for the Constitution and opposed to the overweening State need to be shamed into facing the truth about the tax and their enabling of the very things they decry. Or, let me be more generous than I am above: People don't know what they don't know, and are pretty skilled at avoiding information that will alert them to their ignorance. Such people have to be helped to see the truth. *** BTW: MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE sits in a federal prison camp right now after a show-trial exercise in judicial corruption staged solely in support of exactly the sort of pretended or willful ignorance discussed above. The idea is to hang someone prominently in the crow-cage to suggest "official disagreement" with what simple logic and the plain and simple facts make perfectly clear to anyone who will consider them (as though that were the relevant measure of the truth or rightness of all things, even if sincere). There is no "official disagreement" of course-- just corrupt official displeasure. This made clear by the broad and deep river of admissions over a decade-and-a-half, by the record of dodges and evasions engaged in by the same hanging government in lieu of actual disputes of anything in CtC, and even by the details of Doreen's victimization. This hideous injustice alone should be enough to turn those to whom this open letter is addressed white as sheets and firmly resolved to man-up-- or should I say, American-up.

The First 2017 Victory Is Posted! A nice, prompt 100% refund from California. ADADRIAN C. has launched the 2017 victory posts with this fine 100% refund of everything withheld from him during that year and given over to California as "income" tax:
Adrian got his educated return in early, and bless him for his refusal to be patient at getting his own money back in his own pocket where it belongs! *** AS LONG AS WE'RE IN A "VICTORIES MODE", let's celebrate a few other recent victories, as well. Roger B. secured this nice victory in January, after challenges to his withholding amounts and a well-answered "frivolous" allegation:
It'll be noted that this is a "change form", by which the United States agrees that Roger is due $17,798 back (which was everything withheld from him during 2014 under Chapter 24 provisions) while trying to keep the amounts withheld under Chapter 21, for no defensible reason. (The validity of the tax related to either withholding protocol hinges on the same facts-- see this for a bit more on the subject.) Here is Roger's filing; here is the initial challenge to his claim of amounts withheld (which was to ALL of the amounts withheld, btw); and here is Roger's response. Months later came this "frivolous" allegation in hope of frightening Roger into withdrawing his refund claim, to which Roger responded with this. After all that, at long last came the acknowledgement above showing the United States admission that Roger had done nothing qualifying for the tax, but proposing to return only two-thirds of his money. Roger has responded with an "I do not agree" which the IRS followed with a repeat of its "frivolous" threat-- we'll watch the further progress of this victory-in-progress with considerable interest. *** SETH shares a victory with the state of Hawaii for 2016:
*** AND SHAWN WEILER shares his federal victory (with interest) for 2016:
(FICA withholdings are not included here; Shawn chose not to pursue his claim for their return for reasons of his own.) ***
Adrian's and Roger's and Seth's and Shawn's victories join those of the tens of thousands of other awakened and activated Americans represented here. Each constitutes another critical step toward the restoration of the Founders republic and the true rule of law. Don't you wish your victories were proudly posted, too? It's easy. Stand up on behalf of the law, and then share the evidence. That's all there is to it!
Set a brushfire-- E-mail this newsletter to a friend The Annual Month Of Claptrap And Disinformation Is Underway It's the capstone of the season of truth and lies. AS OF MID-LAST WEEK, America has been in its annual 30 days or so of serious disinformation efforts by the beneficiaries of the "ignorance tax". These efforts are a little variable in form, but all are intended to discourage folks from filing educated returns. The efforts will include attacks on me and my work, in a hundred different forms and by alleged "tax honesty" people as well as "mainstream" and "official" voices (see some discussion of that latter variety here). Claims will circulate about CtC-educated filers being penalized and prosecuted and kicked out of Kiwanis. There will also be the usual "be afraid of the IRS" messages that will show up even in your local newspapers, and have been doing so since I was a toddler. AS WELL, WE WILL SEE commentaries by every pundit and "guru" from the deepest fringe to the most mainstream-ish who claims to know something about the tax will be thick on the ground. All will be designed-- subtly or more directly-- to encourage non-filing amongst the community of what can be called tax activists. These false and harmful commentaries will include claims that the income tax is unconstitutional or otherwise illegal. They will include claims that the tax only falls on corporations, or on foreigners, or on earnings from foreign sources (or, in the reverse of this nonsense, that it only falls on US citizens, whether spelled with a capital "c" or a lower-case "c"). They will claim that the tax is residency-dependent, or that the tax arises because of one's "election" to be a taxable entity, or because one files a return. Some of these false and harmful commentaries will claim the tax began in 1913. Or that it just exists to soak up excess FRNs. Or that if we didn't have the income tax taking everyone's wealth the government would just print all it needs to stay fat and sassy. Every one of these efforts-- smears, lies, ignorant commentaries and all, will have as their end effect, even if not always their deliberate goal, the discouragement of those taken in by them from learning the real truth about the tax and doing the one thing that empowers Americans against the tax's misapplication: filing educated tax returns. IF YOU WANT TO WIN THE WAR this year (and that's what everyone should be shooting for), you have to respond to these efforts with rebuttal and denunciation. Left un-debunked and un-denounced, these disinformation efforts WILL be effective, and WILL deprive YOU of needed companions on the march down the correct and fruitful path.
YOU CAN'T LEAVE IT TO ME (or anyone else) to do these chores. I won't ever even see 999 out of a thousand of these efforts. When YOU see one of these posts, or get an email spreading the harmful nonsense, you must post a rebuttal and a denunciation, or "reply to all" with them. Each person must choose his or her own expressions, of
course, but in my view it's way past time for courtesies other than
the most rudimentary in responding to these mole, troll and moron
efforts Those claiming guru or pundit status are thereby asserting a background of honest and scrupulous research and knowledge regarding the tax. At this point no one actually so credentialed can possibly be unaware of CtC. Thus, any alleged "gurus" or "pundits" who do anything except direct their readers/viewers to losthorizons.com and CtC should be assumed to be either misrepresenting their credentials or deliberately misinforming those readers or viewers. They, in particular, are entitled to no forgiveness. I FEEL LIKE I AM LATELY asking a lot of everyone. But I do so in the certain knowledge that you all know the stakes; recognize your personal interest in this battle; and have an abiding respect for the rule of law and an abiding love of liberty. If I'm right, you will all step up to this task, as well as to the others I have put forward. We are in the end-game, now. I don't know how long it will take to play out, but I know that it demands a large degree of focus. This means pushing aside the temptation to let attention be sucked into whatever political theater is the news of the day or whatever fake news is being exploited by the mainstream media and derided by the alt-media. We have a transformational opportunity in reach which, once realized, will make all those houses of cards collapse. We WILL realize it, if we put forth and sustain a big effort now. Be the voice of CtC, loud, proud-- right now, and until you are echoed by everyone around you. If you do that, the truth will prevail, and it will set you free.

Those wishing to be free of the hindrances presented by that fundamental legal instrument have succeeded in infecting major portions of the American intelligentsia with such thorough disinformation concerning the Constitution's origins, purposes and principles as to prompt constant articles against it. Many of these screeds, I'm sorry to say, are even churned out by otherwise fairly sound-thinking libertarians. (Some sects of libertarianism seem especially vulnerable to anti-Constitutional propaganda due to pipe-dream delusions about anarchic utopias). We in the grown-up community must stay alert to these erosions of something so important as the written fundamental law. Here is an effort at raising the alarm and passing out some intellectual ammunition against the enemies of the law.

The craziness of the neo-con nutcases in Washington is starting to generate its predictable blowback, but on a much more dangerous scale than in the recent past. Based on relentless hostile rhetoric and steady efforts at military encirclement the Russian Federation Armed Forces Command has concluded that the United States intends to launch a pre-emptive nuclear attack on Russia. While this perception continues to be fed, the risk of a prophylactic Russian first strike exists and grows more perilous. The persistent, recently-escalated, plainly unfounded and deliberately provocative saber-rattling against Iran-- a long-time close ally and buffer-state of Russia's, the destabilization or regime-change within which would be another substantial threat factor-- has magnified the intensity of the peril. So, more than ever...
What You Need To Know If CtC Doesn't Spread Like Wildfire RIGHT NOW So The Nut-Cases Can Be Stripped Of Their Resources: NOT THAT "DUCK AND COVER" would do you or your kids any good, of course... The Russian Federation has 7,400 nuclear warheads and the means to deliver them. China is coming on strong, too, these days. Perhaps you imagine the US has some magical technological advantage that will protect us when all the nut-case bellicosity leads to its inevitable outcome? Read this, this, this, this and this. And in any event, don't forget the inescapable issue of nuclear winter and fallout-- the world-killing harm from either of which doesn't require even a single Russian or Chinese warhead to hit a target. Really, it's this simple:

A Call To Action Or Two Nothing happens if you do nothing.
THE VIDEO OF MY JULY 16 PRESENTATION on judicial fraud to conceal the true legal character of the income tax is posted here. Everyone should see it and share it like crazy.* It is hugely powerful and WILL successfully educate even the most stubbornly skeptical and disengaged. Video of the Q&A session that followed that presentation can be seen here; this is also a "must see". *Here's a sample formulation for sharing: The American people have been victimized by massive and sustained corruption in the federal judiciary in order to fuel the ambitions of the Deep State. See the incontrovertible evidence at https://youtu.be/105GKdmJ9HU. This enormous harm can be remedied, but the path to that solution begins with widespread awareness of the problem. Please watch the film yourself, and please pass this wake-up call along as widely and urgently as possible. If you have a serious-minded group that you think will benefit from an in-person presentation on this long-running assault on the rule of law in America, contact me. Further... A call to action CLEARLY, THE MERE AIRING OF THE JUDICIAL AND EXECUTIVE CRIMES revealed in the presentation discussed above is not enough. What is revealed here is a vicious widespread plot to destroy our Constitutional republic. It can be stopped, and it must be stopped, and all culpable parties-- who have each and every one grossly betrayed and defiled the trust and honor the people of America have bestowed upon them-- should be harshly punished. Therefore... I call on every law-respecting journalist to raise the hue and cry about these outrages. I urge every American reading these words to join me in demanding action. Append this article or this video (or both) to an introductory note and a demand for action, and mail it to Jeff Sessions, Paul Ryan, your federal and state congressional delegations and to every journalist possible. This will ensure that these folks will be made aware of this matter, and cannot say otherwise as an excuse for inaction. Click on the name below for contact info: Journalists (this is a short list-- you may know or have access to more; send to all of them) Your mom, your dad, your sibs, your best friend, the guys and gals at the office or the plant, etc.-- you have these addresses or must find them on your own. ALSO!!! Send to law school faculty!!! Find schools, faculty names and contact info however you can and send! Send to every lawyer you can find. Understand, if YOU haven't shared this film with any given judge, prosecutor or attorney, he or she will not have ever seen any of the information presented. He or she will not only know nothing of the truth about the tax, but will believe the untruths about the tax which the falsifying officials exposed in the film (and in the text treatments of the same material here and here) have been peddling on behalf of the "ignorance tax" scheme. Don't make the mistake of imagining that "they all know the truth, and are part of a giant conspiracy against it." This is not true. Most of those folks have never seen even a single one of the authorities you have seen in these presentations. They never knew there was a reason to look for them. Certainly none of them have ever seen this material knowledgeably assembled and presented. YOU have to show it to them. If you haven't done so, assume that no one has. “Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” – Martin Luther King Jr.

****** On Criminal Complaints For Filing False IRs Getting practical on a core element of the "ignorance tax" scheme.
"A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves." -Edward R. Murrow
What Is Paid For By The "Ignorance Tax" LOTS of very bad things... The U.S. Income Tax: An Excise On The Profitable Exploitation Of Federal Privilege The U.S. Ignorance Tax: The Profitable Exploitation of Confusion About The Income Tax I WAS IN A GROUP THE OTHER DAY in which I overheard, "The income tax just goes to pay the interest on the national debt!" Would that it were so... The statement is a long-standing misconstruction of something said by Peter Grace of the Reagan-era Grace Commission, which had been tasked with an analysis of the federal budget. Grace attempted to illustrate the significance of the federal debt burden by pointing out that the interest paid on that monstrous debt was so much as to more-or-less match the amount taken in by the income tax-- an amount that is a metaphorical synonym for "huge". Money, of course, is fungible, so even if the tax take were earmarked for the interest payment, that would simply free up other funds for other uses. Thus, the "earmarking " concept is illusory at best. Income tax revenue gets spent for any and all government purposes, just as is true of every other dime that goes into the general fund. Further, Grace undervalued the income tax dramatically. This is because Grace didn't understand that FICA (Social security and Medicare) taxes are just income "surtaxes"-- meaning income taxes like any others, despite the misleading application-specific label of "employment taxes". As a result of this misunderstanding Grace failed to factor this additional enormous amount into his casual analogy. The reality is that the income tax take-- by which we really mean the "ignorance tax" take, since we're talking about the amount captured by government through exploitation of ignorance about what is really subject to the income tax under the law-- is many times the amount paid in interest on the national debt. Last year, for instance, the interest payment was about $432 billion. The ignorance tax total was a whopping $3.9 trillion. MY POINT HERE IS NOT TO CRITIQUE THE GRACE REPORT, however. I'm only interested in stopping its mistakes from being repeated and persisting as a false "factoid". The reason I'm concerned is that the throw-off, "It just goes to pay the interest on the national debt..." line, though not meant as, or in support of, anything but a disparagement of the tax, actually serves to minimize or conceal the horrendous evil for which the tax really does pay. Lets look at a small sampling of the things made possible by the ignorance tax:
NOW LET'S LOOK at what preservation of the "ignorance tax" scheme has made valuable to the schemers, and therefore an increasing part of our lives:
EVERYTHING LISTED ABOVE IS what is actually paid-for by the "ignorance tax", either in the conventional sense of being financed with its enormous, corruption-inducing aggregation of wealth into the hands of a political class with feet of clay, or as a price we all pay by the degradation and loss of our principles and our values. Is all this really how a sensible people want to be spending their resources? I think not, but this IS what we're doing now, because of all those not yet awakened to the truth about the income tax. Be an alarm clock.

A Review of CtC by Derek Cushman
You can also find this film at https://vimeo.com/175424277. Regarding Trolleries (Deceitful efforts to discourage Americans from learning the truth about the "income tax")
FOR ALL THE YEARS SINCE 2003 when CtC was first published, the government has engaged in a concerted effort to frighten people away from its truths. This effort involves official government websites and press releases touting an occasional court ruling that appears to be at odds with some CtC-revelation (but without details sufficient to expose the real substance of the ruling)-- and sometimes even more mendacious behavior.

Media Evasion Of CtC Must End, Now Time, unfortunately, is on the side of the well-funded disinformation specialists class
Are You Having Trouble Spreading The Word? SKEPTICISM (SOMETIMES INVOKED BY FEAR) IS TO BE EXPECTED when you're trying to explain to someone that everything they've been encouraged their whole lives to believe about something as entrenched and significant as the income tax is basically nonsense. So here's a way to help cut through the resistance: Ask your listener how he or she would react if you were to show an announcement from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue admitting that the tax doesn't apply to the earnings of most Americans and is misapplied most of the time because people don't understand how it works? Or how about if you showed a ruling from the Supreme Court saying the same? Now you just have to explain that you're going to show exactly those things-- but because the state really doesn't want people to know this, these things haven't been said quite as forthrightly as we would all wish. It's going to take a bit more work to take these admissions in than is sufficient for just reading a press release. But it'll be worth the effort... *****
Real Americans don't accommodate fog, lies and a sliding scale of adherence to the rule of law. Real American men and women stand up for the truth and the law, come what may, knowing that it is only by setting the bar at the top and enforcing it, come what may, that liberties are secured.

PLEASE CONTINUE TO DILIGENTLY SPREAD THE LIBERATING TRUTH ABOUT THE TAX!!!
***** About The Author Pete Hendrickson is possibly the most effective lawyer in history, even while never having set foot in a law school, nor ever being a card-carrying member of "the bar". He is the first American in history to secure a complete refund of Social Security and Medicare ‘contributions’ withheld from his earnings (along with all other property taken for federal taxes); further, since 2003 students of his legal analyses and arguments in ‘Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America’’ (CtC), and its sequel, 'Was Grandpa Really a Moron?' have been routinely retaining and recovering billions of dollars which otherwise-- wrongly, but as a matter of course-- would have gone to federal or state government treasuries. This despite concerted efforts by government to suppress his work, and in some cases vigorously oppose the claims by his students. Hendrickson is also a widely-read essayist on matters of politics, public policy and law; many of these works are collected in his second book, ‘Upholding the Law And Other Observations’. He is a member of Mensa; an award-winning artist; and has paid his dues as a youth soccer coach. He is a long-time political activist as well, and has served as co-chair and platform convention delegate of Michigan’s largest county Libertarian Party organization; as a consultant to the National Right to Work Foundation and Citizens for a Sound Economy; as a member of the Heartland Institute; and as a member of the International Society for Individual Liberty. He is a frequent radio-show guest on stations across the country. Hendrickson's business career has included nearly a decade-and-a-half at the leading edge of the renewable-energy industry, both as Director of Purchasing and Materials Management and member of the R&D board at Starpak Energy Systems, the mid-west's then-largest solar heating and energy-recovery-and re-utilization company; and as founder and president of AFJ Inc., a high-efficiency lighting design, manufacture and installation firm. Beginning in the mid-1990s and continuing for the twelve years before his present full-time focus on the restoration of the rule of law in America, Hendrickson directed purchasing activities for the $84 million-a-year multi-family-housing division of the Farmington Hills, Michigan branch of Edward Rose and Sons, with responsibility for 18,000+ apartments, direct supervision of 35 technicians and agents, and incidental authority over several hundred divisional workers. He also ran the division's 10 cable television earth-station and distribution systems in four states, and designed and administered the company's website. On rather the other end of the spectrum, amidst these more mundane pursuits Hendrickson co-founded and was the primary creative force behind a small board- and card-game company that enjoyed a modest success for several years. Hendrickson makes his home in southeast Michigan, with his wife and two children. He is currently working on his next book. © All written and graphic material on this page and website are copyrighted by Peter E. Hendrickson, unless otherwise attributed. |
