"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...

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 (fourteenth) edition of CtC!

EXPERIENCE HAVING SHOWN that these folks simply will not police themselves; and in light of the fact that the sole reason for them being granted any power at all is the securing of our individual rights;
I INVITE AND ENCOURAGE ALL ACTIVISTS with whom this concept resonates (which should be pretty much everyone) to contact me with (or about) action plans for getting this amendment in front of state legislatures across the country; and I ask all of you to enthusiastically share the entire text of this article around and help get a buzz going about this amendment. The permanent page for this proposal and related resources and information is http://www.losthorizons.com/WatchingTheWatchmen.htm. By the way, I'm calling this "Doreen's Amendment", because it is the rights violations by which she is presently suffering that inspired me to write it. I will appreciate everyone familiar with her case using that as the aka for what will more formally and generally be known as 'The Watching the Watchmen Amendment', thus helping keep Doreen's ordeal in the spotlight. "It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error." -U.S. Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson

Dr. Gary North: Just Ignorant? Or Is There Something Else Going On? HAVE YOU EVER FELT PRESSURED TO PAY AN INCOME TAX you didn't really owe? Have you ever faced bad behavior from a government agency over an illegitimate tax charge-- be it an asserted "penalty" or alleged "deficiency" or even just a protracted delay in getting your legitimate refund? Blame folks like Gary North. To pick the most recent example of which I am aware, in his July 4 column this year, North declares: "Taxation has three main forms: direct (income, property, retail sales), indirect (wholesale sales), and monetary inflation." Is North just this ignorant? That's hard to imagine. Often he writes very cogently on many different subjects. So what's going on here? Here is the truth, as is known to any competent student of the subject (all emphases added): "[The] tax upon gains, profits, and income [is] an excise or duty, and not a direct tax, within the meaning of the constitution, and [] its imposition [is] not, therefore, unconstitutional." United States Supreme Court, Springer v. U. S., 102 U.S. 586 (1880) (as summarized in Pollock v. Farmer's Loan & Trust, 158 U.S. 601, (1895)) "[T]axation on income [is] in its nature an excise..." A unanimous United States Supreme Court in Brushaber v. Union Pacific R. Co., 240 U.S. 1 (1916) "I hereby certify that the following is a true and faithful statement of the gains, profits, or income of _____ _____, of the _____ of _____, in the county of _____, and State of _____, whether derived from any kind of property, rents, interest, dividends, salary, or from any profession, trade, employment, or vocation, or from any other source whatever, from the 1st day of January to the 31st day of December, 1862, both days inclusive, and subject to an income tax under the excise laws of the United States." The “affirmation” on the first income tax return form. "The income tax... ...is an excise tax with respect to certain activities and privileges which is measured by reference to the income which they produce. The income is not the subject of the tax; it is the basis for determining the amount of tax.” ... "[The Sixteenth] amendment made it possible to bring investment income within the scope of the general income-tax law, but did not change the character of the tax. It is still fundamentally an excise or duty with respect to the privilege of carrying on any activity or owning any property which produces income." Former Treasury Department legislative draftsman F. Morse Hubbard in testimony before Congress in 1943 "The [Sixteenth] Amendment, the [Supreme] court said, judged by the purpose for which it was passed, does not treat income taxes as direct taxes but simply removed the ground which led to their being considered as such in the Pollock case, namely, the source of the income. Therefore, they are again to be classified in the class of indirect taxes to which they by nature belong." Cornell Law Quarterly, 1 Cornell L. Q. 298 (1915-16) "In Brushaber v. Union Pacific Railroad Co., Mr. C. J. White, upholding the income tax imposed by the Tariff Act of 1913, construed the Amendment as a declaration that an income tax is "indirect," rather than as making an exception to the rule that direct taxes must be apportioned." Harvard Law Review, 29 Harv. L. Rev. 536 (1915-16) "If [a] tax is a direct one, it shall be apportioned according to the census or enumeration. If it is a duty, impost, or excise, it shall be uniform throughout the United States. Together, these classes include every form of tax appropriate to sovereignty. Whether the [income] tax is to be classified as an "excise" is in truth not of critical importance [for this analysis]. If not that, it is an "impost", or a "duty". A capitation or other "direct" tax it certainly is not." U.S. Supreme Court, Steward Machine
Co. v. Collector of Internal Revenue, 301 U.S. 548 (1937)
(citations omitted.) "The
Supreme Court, in a decision written by Chief Justice White,
first noted that the Sixteenth Amendment did not
authorize any new type of tax, nor did it repeal or
revoke the tax clauses of Article I of the Constitution, quoted
above. Direct taxes were, notwithstanding the advent of
the Sixteenth Amendment, still subject to the rule of
apportionment…" Legislative Attorney of the
American Law Division of the Library of Congress Howard M.
Zaritsky in his 1979 Report No. 80-19A, entitled 'Some
Constitutional Questions Regarding the Federal Income Tax Laws'
SO, IN LIGHT OF THE FACTS, why is Gary North saying the income tax is a direct tax? I suppose I could be mistaken, but it seems to be that to declare the income tax to be a direct tax is a lie, in either of two forms: 1. You know better, and are deliberately mis-stating what you know, or 2. You have no idea what you're talking about, but are deceitfully implying that you do. Which one is it in this case? Dr. Gary North's integrity is his own problem in the most important sense, of course. But his words reach a lot of people. It is because of mis-statements like this from people like Gary North that anyone else is dealing with bad behavior by government actors. The myths about the tax are the cover under which the bad behavior avoids revealing and disinfecting sunlight, and they are also the intellectual undergrowth that keeps the liberating, bad-behavior suppressing truth about the tax from being ascendant and in charge. Every person who hears the lie that the income tax is a direct tax then has no reason to question its application to his or her own activities and the resultant gains. Mis-statements like North's keep juries and attorneys and even judges (most of whom know nothing independently about the tax in any broad sense) ignorant and dangerous to liberty and the rule of law. When it is understood that the tax is an excise (and what that means), suddenly everything else about it can start to come into focus (as, for instance, by following this simple chain of facts and logic). It is to avoid this onset of clarity that the beneficiaries of the tax scam do everything they can to promote the myth that it is a direct tax, with the critically-important help of shills like Gary North (and many others). I hope everyone can help (and
help look out for all our interests) by 1. vigorously countering
these injections of dis-information with rebuttals; 2.
diligently inoculating the body politic with liberating truth;
and 3. encouraging shills like Gary North to find something else
to do.
PRO TIP: The Fourth Amendment does NOT say
that "reasonable" searches can be conducted without
a warrant.
It says that any search conducted without a warrant
is unreasonable, and
forbidden.

Let's Celebrate More Victories By The Red-Pill Brigade! Bill and Della Cheney know the facts about the law, and have acted accordingly. Here is their latest victory in holding the state to its proper limits-- an acknowledgement by the federal government that nothing they received in 2014 was "income" as that term is meant in the law, or subject to the income tax, and the return of every penny that had been withheld from them under their payers' misunderstandings to the contrary:
Here is Bill and Della's filing that produced this acknowledgement and refund. *** Ed _ has applied the law in South Carolina and secured the state's agreement that he did nothing taxable as "income" and the return of everything withheld from him against the possibility of a state claim to the contrary:
Ed's filing that produced his debut complete refund can be seen here. *** Steven Jones has won another victory for the law-- looking back to past years from before he learned the facts about the tax, Steven has secured a complete refund of everything withheld from him and given to New York in 2011, plus interest:
Steven secured this victory by way of this amended return. *** Paul Anderson has also secured another acknowledgment and complete refund, this one from the feds and for 2014:
Here is the filing that compelled Paul's latest refund, in accordance with the law, and after the same rigorous vetting to which all such claims are subjected. And finally, Christine Schrock shares her journey to the truth about the tax, and urges everyone to come along. Enjoy Christine's inspiring message at http://youtu.be/ogbRQPwregY. (Additional video inspirations and victory announcements can be found under the first graphic on http://losthorizons.com/BulletinBoard.htm.) Join me in celebrating and honoring these heroes of the republic (and all their fellows)-- real American men and women who know what it means and know what it takes to be free people enjoying the benefits of a legitimate rule of law.

When they're trying so hard to pull the wool over your eyes, maybe it's to hide something you should be trying extra hard to see...
http://tenthamendmentcenter.com/2015/05/16/nullification-made-easy/ I Stand With Doreen ARE YOU JUST LEARNING ABOUT the crime against your rights and the rule of law by means of a heinous crime by which Doreen Hendrickson is being victimized? Get up to speed with this and this, and this film: Free Speech On Trial: IRS v. Hendrickson (Find and share this on YouTube at http://youtu.be/IagZzFIIymw) The longer but much more comprehensive and question-answering backstory (the "why" history leading up to this unprecedented assault on the First Amendment and principles of due process) can be found here. There's a good article on Doreen's ordeal here. *** DOREEN'S ADDRESS: Doreen Hendrickson 48564-039, FPC Alderson A-4, P.O. Box A, Alderson, WV 24910. She would love to hear your encouragement, uplift, appreciation and solidarity. Anyone wanting to send Doreen a few dollars for her commissary account (with which she can get better food, soft drinks, clothes and other amenities), you can do so by mailing a money order made payable to Doreen Hendrickson 48564039. Mail to: Federal Bureau of Prisons, Doreen Hendrickson 48564-039 Post Office Box 474701 Des Moines, Iowa 50947-0001
DO YOU NOTICE THAT MESSAGE ON THE T-SHIRT being worn by the lovely model of the 'I Stand with Doreen' care-bracelet? It reads, THINK. It's not illegal yet! But you know what? The charge against Doreen is an effort by the state to make it so. Doreen was charged, remember, with criminally-refusing to cede control of her expressions to the state. Now, I'll grant you that technically her thoughts would remain her own, but if the state can dictate what everyone says, then pretty soon that atmosphere of controlled expressions will result in first influencing, and then ultimately controlling what everyone thinks. If the State gets away with establishing the precedent that every written expression-- even just those on testimonial instruments-- can be required to echo the state's preferred view of things, the fate of free thinking and liberty is obvious (and it's not good). Think about it, while you still can. Would You Do It? (By the way, I would very much welcome videos of any of you or your friends, acquaintances or random strangers on the street answering this same question, which I would then incorporate into this film in order to make it even stronger.) Doreen's Principal Appeal Brief Has Been Filed You can find it at http://www.losthorizons.com/Newsletter/DoreenAssault/AppealBrief.pdf. I encourage everyone to download it and read it through. It's an easy read, and not nearly as long as it will appear from the page count. Many pages are taken up with non-argument uses, and the argument portions are double-spaced and wide-margined, meaning that it doesn't take much text to fill a page. You will see-- beyond any doubt, and completely contrary to the troll and wormtongue community that have been trying to spin Doreen's "conviction" into some kind of attack on CtC-- that the "conviction" of Doreen was only achieved by reliance on deep corruption to overcome the complete lack of merit to the government's case. As such, the prosecution of Doreen-- which IS meant to be an attack on CtC, or at least, on people's perception of CtC-- is actually an acknowledgement of the truth about the tax, as can be seen by the following simple reasoning: There is no valid case against Doreen. Yet the government proceeded with its "prosecution" anyway, deliberately taking a series of law-defying steps in order to contrive a "conviction". This can only have been done in order to try to make an argument that cannot be made on legitimate grounds. This is axiomatic. Deceit, evasion and corruption are only resorted-to when truth, forthrightness and integrity will yield unwanted outcomes. The outcome wanted here by the deceivers is the furnishing the trolls and wormtongues with a press-release saying that, "The wife of Pete Hendrickson, author of 'Cracking the Code' was convicted..." (Needless to say, no mention is made in such a release of the shenanigans by which the "conviction" was accomplished-- only a fraction of which are included in this brief due to length-limitation rules and a few other factors.) The hope is that you would be somehow discouraged from spreading the word about CtC's revelations, or find it more difficult due to having one more thing to have to explain and clarify to a skeptical listener. But this brief is the perfect answer to that corrupt effort at fog-generation-- from it you can distill a bullet-point list of what the government actually had to do to contrive this "conviction" that it wants your listener to believe is reason for them to not examine CtC. By this you can make clear, in a nice bit of intellectual judo, that the effort is really the best evidence that your listener really, really needs to study CtC and learn what the government is so fearful of him or her discovering. P. S. Anyone wanting to file an amicus brief in the appeal-- whether in vindication of Doreen's rights of speech, conscience and due process, or in pre-emptive defense of their own-- should contact Mark Cedrone via any of the various means listed in the appeal brief. *** ON ANOTHER, RELATED SUBJECT, I've had some inquiries about the status of Doreen's "Bond Pending Appeal" motion. You know, that's the one in which the DOJ slipped-up and tacitly admitted that it's purported hostility to CtC has always been a complete fabrication. Bond pending appeal is provided for by statute for anyone convicted and sentenced to a term of imprisonment. The statute, although having been steadily-held by lapdog-to-the-executive courts to have a presumption against release, provide for release upon a showing that the defendant is not a flight risk or danger to the community, and that issues will be raised in the appeal which, if they were to be taken as the defendant suggests they should be by the panel which will eventually hear the actual appeal (as opposed to the panel hearing the bond motion), would result in a different trial outcome or a reduction in the sentence to less time than the appeal will take. This is to ensure that someone not validly convicted or sentenced doesn't serve a sentence while waiting to learn that they should not have had to. In short, if a defendant can show she has substantial issues to raise on appeal, the bond motion is supposed to be granted. Axiomatically (and this is important to what follows), doubt about whether the defendant should be granted the bond stands in the defendant's favor (because remember, the panel hearing the motion is not deciding the appeal, only if the issues to be raised in the motion would have a chance of reversing the verdict or sentence, and if there is doubt about that, this means there is such a chance and the defendant should be released until the doubt is resolved). By statutory design, bond motions go the the trial court judge whose own "errors" are being complained of in the appeal, for the expected denial. Once that denial is issued, the motion can then go to the appellate panel, which is not supposed to have a dog in the fight. In Doreen's case, the trial judge sat on her bond motion for 32 days after it was fully briefed (25 of them after Doreen reported to prison and began suffering the sentence), and only issued a ruling (the expected denial) after being copied on a petition to the appellate court to have her ordered to make a ruling so the matter could be taken higher up the food chain. The appellate court sat on the motion after full briefing for 25 days (see the filings here, here and here), on most of which it was actually before the panel and under consideration (we checked). Despite that 25 days axiomatically indicating that substantial issues were recognized, the motion panel issued a denial on that 25th day. This is very disappointing, needless to say. Plainly the panel applied that "presumption against release" constructive standard of review and set the bar higher than is the case for the appeal itself (as is unfortunately typical in recent years-- prior to the adoption of that doctrine, release on bond pending appeal was fairly routine. Now it is very, very rare. SO, AS IT STANDS NOW, Doreen is stuck in captivity until next year. However, there is a possible hope from a different direction. Right now the momentum for reform of the outrageously abusive federal sentencing and imprisonment practices is very high. A lot of people have long recognized the evils of the feds' "lock 'em all up" mentality, which is a feature of its obnoxious and lawless "we can do no wrong" institutionalized narcissism coupled with its concerted effort to transform the legitimate legal structure of this country-- any power not granted to the state is withheld from the state-- into its dark and illegitimate opposite: anything not prohibited to the state is permitted for the state (and the state will "interpret" those prohibitions, too... So, calls for reform of a system that has the United States dramatically leading the world in prisoners per capita have long been out there, and right now, they are coming to fruition. Among the bills currently making their way through congress is one with provisions that would provide for the release to home confinement of non-violent prisoners of a certain age, a category in which Doreen squarely falls. Therefore, I ask everyone that cares to write their congresspeople and urge support and rapid passage for James Sensenbrenner's and Bobby Scott's 'SAFE Justice Act' H.R. 2944. ***
OF NECESSITY, I AM ASKING FOR HELP with Doreen's legal expenses. It is my experience that when the name Hendrickson appears on the caption, courts find themselves under pressure from their clients to creatively misunderstand arguments or authorities. Thus, my requests for oral arguments in the appellate court have always been denied whenever I have handled my own cases. I am sure the same would be true for Doreen. But I believe it is harder for the courts to refuse such requests when put by a licensed attorney admitted to practice before a given court. Partly for that reason, and partly to enjoy the benefit of his many years of experience and excellent quality of work, we have retained a lawyer I know well and deem to be an honorable man, and who is committed to working closely with me on Doreen's appeal. All his good qualities notwithstanding, though, Mark is not free, or even cheap. Thus, I am asking all those who can and care to do so to help as much as you can. Donations can be sent to Peter Hendrickson at 232 Oriole St., Commerce Twp., Michigan 48382. Mark "legal expenses" on the memo line or an accompanying note and you'll get back a specially-made "care bracelet" bearing the message "I STAND WITH DOREEN" and an icon of an American Eagle (pictured at the beginning of this commentary), which will help you engage in conversations with others about just what is going on here, and will ultimately become a treasured remembrance of your participation in important events, as well. WARRIOR BRIAN WRIGHT has set up a 'GoFundMe' account for legal expense donations from those preferring to contribute using plastic. Find his article and the link to the GoFundMe page here. *** MY HEARTFELT THANKS TO EVERYONE who has been helping get the word out to journalists. Here is the latest piece for distribution to news organizations (and my thanks to the most excellent Tim O'Brien for putting this one together). Here is the one calling for interposition by Michigan (which is still a viable issue, even with Doreen presently in custody-- the state can still make a presentation to the federal appellate court upholding the First Amendment and demanding that it be fully respected and obeyed in Doreen's case, which would result in her release and the dismissal of the outrageous charge against her). The entire backstory and drill-down on what went on in Doreen's trials can be found here. MY SERIOUS FRUSTRATION AND DISMAY to everyone who continues to fail to send the video testimonials I have asked you for over and over again. This is a collapse of dignity, self-respect and good sense that I am astonished to see in this community. Let me put this issue to you in a way that might resonate where my earlier entreaties have apparently not: You want judges, bureaucrats, CPAs, lawyers, the HR people where you work, your pastors, your neighbors and everyone else to acknowledge the truth about the tax openly and straightforwardly. How and why would these folks do this if YOU won't? You want these folks to learn the truth. Why would they even recognize that there is a truth to be learned if you won't attest to having learned it yourself? You've got to stand up, face forward and chin up and tell these folks that you have studied and checked and verified and seen the evidence and seen the government evasions and you know that the tax is not the capitation that the beneficiary government wants everyone to think it is but a benign, but strictly limited thing, and that they need to study and learn that, too. If you have victories to show, that's nice, and powerful, too. But you don't have to have victories to display in order to declare your knowledge of what the law says. I've never flown around the world, but I've seen the evidence and considered the arguments, and I'm not hesitant to declare it a sphere... Even those of you who haven't yet studied CtC have surely read this short document, and have verified everything in it for yourself. You should therefore be declaring its veracity and its message, loud and proud. Again, if you won't say it, how can you hope that others will ever even bother to look at the facts? Be the change you want to see in the world, or there won't be any change. Finally: Fear nothing but God. And God demands from you truth and the courage to speak the truth. As Martin Luther King Jr. said, "The day we see truth and do not speak is the day we begin to die."*** I HOPE EVERYONE IS TAKING THE OPPORTUNITY to raise the consciousness of their interlocutors with the "Why?" point when discussing what's being done to Doreen. Find some words on this point here. As always, the corrupt always go too far for their own good with their evil-- at least, too far for their own good if people like you and me make use of their excesses. Here, this can be done by helping others recognize that the degree of nakedness in defiance of the law being revealed in the assault on Doreen would only happen as a desperate effort to evade a very real threat to the vampire state-- a threat as unlike any other and as potent on behalf of liberty as the violations by the state in its efforts to evade that threat are unlike any others. *** from Amazing Spider-Man #537

Media Evasion Of CtC Must End, Now Time, unfortunately, is on the side of the well-funded disinformation specialists
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... *****
