Btw, a copy of
CtC from anywhere except the link above may not
be a current edition. CHECK. It matters. Also, there
ARE no e-book, Kindle or .pdf versions of
CtC. Don't get taken in by efforts to sell you--
or even give you for free-- any such thing.
June 17- In 1579. Sir Francis Drake claims California for England. In
1775, the Battle of Bunker Hill is fought. In 1885, the Statue of Liberty
arrives in New York Harbor. In 1930 Herbert Hoover signs the Smoot-Hawley
tariff into law. In 1944, Iceland declares independence from Denmark. In 1972,
five White House operatives are arrested while illegally wiretapping the

"The preservation of a free government requires, not
merely that the metes and bounds which separate
each department of power be invariably maintained, but
more especially that neither of them be suffered to
overleap the great barrier which defends the rights
of the people. The rulers who are guilty of such
encroachment exceed the commission from which they derive
their authority, and are TYRANTS. The people who
submit to it are governed by laws made neither by themselves
nor by an authority derived from them and are slaves….."

Middletown, Moonbeam!! August 3rd!
Be there for the next CtC Seminar, in New
York's beautiful Hudson Valley!!
So... WHERE ARE
YOUR BILLBOARDS, PEOPLE??!! ISN'T IT TIME YOU
ALL STEPPED UP AND STARTED MAKING A LOUD NOISE, AND
SECURING
THE BIG VICTORY-- THE REAL END OF THE IGNORANCE
TAX SCAM?
C'mon, people! Follow those links and
read those posts!! Then actually get up and get
busy!!!
I seem unable to make
myself clear about this. Maybe I've begun to
understand why...
FOR YEARS I'VE BEEN POSTING
VICTORIES and
authorities and
other evidence intended to support your confidence in the fact
that what you are doing in your own educated filings
is correct; that you have lots of company; and so
on. It's all meant to uplift, and encourage and
energize.
But I begin to realize that
my doing so may also be backfiring. These posts may
be causing some of you to imagine that the wind is
blowing so much in our favor that the march to settled, done-and-dusted Victory-with-a-capital-"V" is unstoppable.
Listen to me closely now:
This march to settled, done-and-dusted Victory-with-a-capital-"V" is NOT unstoppable. There is
ONLY ONE
THING that will make us all secure in the benefits
of the truth about the tax, and that is LOTS MORE
PEOPLE KNOWING IT.
You took my word for the
truth about the tax, and learned that I knew what I
was talking about. Take my word for this, too. Get
those damn billboards and newspaper ads going. Now.
"It does not take a majority to prevail... but rather an irate,
tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men."

THIS RELATED ARTICLE:
The Government Knows
Perfectly Well That
CtC is 100% Correct
...and this is so easy to prove, in so
many different ways...
HERE IS MY FAVORITE PROOF of the fact
that the United States and its organs know perfectly
well that
CtC is completely correct, and aren't able to
muster even the pretense of a challenge:
False Ascriptions To CtC.
This bizarre fraud by DoJ Tax Division
attorneys and a couple of sitting federal judges
does it for me because less than three pages of text
and a few supporting exhibits make unmistakably
clear that,
1. an elaborate project was undertaken
in 2006 to create a formal judicial "finding" that
CtC makes the ridiculous and hoary "tax
protestor" argument that "only federal, state or
local government workers are liable for the payment
of federal income tax"; and,
2. the "finding" is a complete fraud.
ONCE THOSE TWO FACTS ARE CLEAR, the
rest is simple. The point, and the liberating truth,
is then driven thoroughly home with any honest
correspondent by simply directing attention to the
obvious:
If there actually WERE anything wrong
about what
CtC teaches, THAT would be the thing or things
identified and denounced by the "official"
opposition. There would be no resort to lies.
Because there IS resort to lies, it is
plain that no real flaws exist in
CtC. This is
sandbox-level stuff.
***
SO, I POST THIS FOLLOW-UP (ABOVE) ABOUT
THE PROOF that the government knows that
CtC is correct as "related" to my impatient
question and urging about the "billboarding" effort
(or lack thereof). Why?
It's simple. All I can think of that is
stopping people from doing the CRITICALLY-IMPORTANT
vigorous wake-up project RIGHT NOW while the closing
window of opportunity is still briefly open, is a
persistent or chronic self-doubt-- that is, a lack
of confidence that
CtC is right.
What else would keep any rational
person who knows
what's at stake from shouting it from the
rooftops all day long in a dedicated effort to save
this marvelous country
as
only CtC's revelations can?
The article above, demonstrating beyond
dispute that
CtC is 100% correct and is, in fact, undisputed
by the government, should put an end to any doubts
that are keeping any of you quiet. The only other
thing I can think of is that you do not realize the
importance of the outreach effort to which I urge
you. As to that...
ARE YOU SO CRAZY AS TO THINK that
bad-behaving governments that desperately want 40%
of your wealth for the benefit of the political
class and its cronies aren't going to notice that
you, by default, are placing all your faith in
nothing but them (or their judges) doing the right thing out of the
goodness of their hearts and their well-known deep
respect for the rule of law?
Do you think they aren't going to
realize that if they simply stop doing the right
thing you have no recourse, no leverage and no
throw-weight unless and until the "you" has swollen
to very large numbers?
You all should know better, and should
be very busy.
June 18- In 1429, the French, led by Joan of Arc,
defeat the English in the Battle of Patay. In 1778, British troops are forced
to withdraw from Philadelphia. In 1812, the United States Congress declares war
on the United Kingdom. In 1815, British forces defeat France's Napoleon at
Waterloo. In 1830, the French invade Algeria. In 1873, Susan B. Anthony is
fined $100 for attempting to vote in the 1872 presidential election. (This was
a REAL $100, by the way, not 100 pieces of the near worthless trash we
all-too-often use as currency today. In 2015
the value of that 1873 $100
would have been around $2,040, based on the CPI-- or a lot more if
calculated by other metrics). In 1923, the first Checker cab hits the streets.

The Entire Legal And
Practical Truth About The Income Tax In Three Short
Sentences
Focus on these simple points and
you can teach anyone the truth about the tax.
1. The income tax is an
excise.
2. Excise taxes are taxes
on the gainful exercise of privileges.
3. You probably didn't earn your
money by exercising any taxable privilege (or earned very
little that way).
An excellent commentary on one of the
most outrageous foreign state crimes that ever cost
innocent American lives, and on the U.S. political
corruption in response which continues to this day.
Terry Halbardier, who as a 23-year old
seaman in 1967 thwarted Israeli attempts to sink the
USS Liberty, died on Aug. 11 in Visalia, California.
It took the U.S. government 42 years after the
attack to recognize Halbardier’s heroism by awarding
him the Silver Star, a delay explained by
Washington’s determination to downplay Israeli
responsibility for the 34 Americans killed and the
174 wounded.
On June 8, 1967, during the Six-Day
War, the Israeli military attacked the USS Liberty,
an American spy ship which had been monitoring
Israeli transmissions about the conflict.
Intercepted Israeli communications indicated that
the goal was to sink the Liberty and leave no
survivors.
Warplanes and torpedo boats had already
killed 34 and wounded 174, when Halbardier slid over
the Liberty’s napalm-glazed deck to jury-rig an
antenna and get an SOS off to the Sixth Fleet. The
Israelis intercepted the SOS and broke off the
attack immediately. In effect, Halbardier prevented
the massacre of all 294 onboard. Still, the infamy
of the attack on the Liberty was two-fold.
First, the Liberty, a virtually
defenseless intelligence collection platform
prominently flying an American flag in international
waters, came under deliberate attack by Israeli
aircraft and three 60-ton Israeli torpedo boats off
the coast of the Sinai on a cloudless June afternoon
during the six-day Israeli-Arab war. Second,
President Lyndon Johnson called back carrier
aircraft dispatched to defend the Liberty lest
Israel be embarrassed, the start of an
unconscionable cover-up, including top Navy brass,
that persists to this day.
Given all they have been through, the
Liberty survivors and other veterans who joined
Halbardier to celebrate his belated receipt of the
Silver Star on May 27, 2009 can be forgiven for
having doubted that the day of the hero’s
recognition would ever come.
In the award ceremony at the Visalia
(California) office of Rep. Devin Nunes, the
Republican congressman pinned the Silver Star next
to the Purple Heart that Halbardier found in his
home mailbox three years ago. Nunes said, “The
government has kept this quiet I think for too long,
and I felt as my constituent he [Halbardier] needed
to get recognized for the services he made to his
country.”
Nunes got that right. Despite the many
indignities the Liberty crew has been subjected to,
the mood in Visalia was pronouncedly a joyous one of
Better (42 years) Late Than Never. And, it did take
some time for the moment to sink in: Wow, a gutsy
congressman not afraid to let the truth hang out on
this delicate issue.
I hope you read all of McGovern's article.
It's gut-wrenching-- nauseating, even-- but it's also a hugely-important wake-up
call.
The only problem with the article is its failure to provide a real
remedy to the problem, because simply drawing attention to systemic corruption
and subversion in Washington isn't going to do
anything. And right now the same corruption is trying hard to sucker Americans into the commission of war crimes
on OUR part, in Iran, at the expense of American blood and treasure and
reputation and moral stature.
These corrupt efforts will only stop when those
responsible are deprived of the
resources and power by which such things are made
possible, and
this can
only be accomplished by a widespread American awakening to the liberating truth
about the income tax uniquely revealed in
CtC.
June 19- In 1846, the first baseball game under
relatively modern rules is played in Hoboken, New Jersey. In 1934, the Federal
Communications Commission is established. In 1953, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg
are executed for espionage after giving the Soviet Union United States nuclear
weapons secrets. In 1964, the Civil Rights Act of 1964 is approved by the
Senate, after an 83-day effort to derail it by filibuster. In 2012, WikiLeaks
founder Julian Assange is compelled to seek asylum in the Ecuadorian embassy in
London, lest he be seized by British authorities and turned over to the United
States for a kangaroo court trial and long imprisonment as punishment for his
role in revealing to the American people (and the rest of the world) many of the
crimes of many of the denizens of Washington, DC.

A Wise Warrior On What's Really
At Stake

DON LA VIGNE, a long-time warrior
and real American grown-up, shares a nice and inspiring
testimonial on what
CtC has done for him for over nine years now:
*****
"Like a muddied stream or a polluted fountain
is the righteous man who gives way before the wicked."
-Proverbs 25:26
"A nation of sheep begets a government
of wolves."
CAN YOU EVEN IMAGINE how abysmally
stupid someone would have to be to continue to doubt
or deny that
CtC has revealed the actual, complete and insurmountable
truth about the income tax in light of the overwhelming
mountain of
historical,
legal,
practical and
logical evidence to the contrary? (Not to mention
the
outright lies and even
ludicrous hoaxes the executive and some corrupt
members of the judiciary have been caught at in desperate
efforts to conceal the truth...)
Plainly any such denier must either be
abysmally stupid or be an abysmally corrupt government
official or other person who sees him or herself as
benefitting from the lies about the tax by which America
has suffered for 75 years now.
Isn't this true?
An old joke, but in regard to this deceiver,
not a laughing matter at all.
““When principles that run against your
deepest convictions begin to win the day, then battle

June 20- In 1214, the University of Oxford is
chartered. In 1787, Constitutional Convention delegate Oliver Ellsworth offers
a motion calling for the proposed federal government to be called "the United
States". In 1791, King Louis XVI of France flees Paris in a futile effort to
escape justice during the French Revolution. In 1837, Queen Victoria takes the
throne in Britain. In 1840, Samuel Morse receives the patent for the
telegraph. In 1863, West Virginia is admitted to the union as the 35th of the
several states. In 1948, the Ed Sullivan Show (then titled 'The Toast of the

Trolls Against The Truth: A
Dis-Information Campaign
UNLESS YOU'VE LOOKED, you can have no idea
of the volume, intensity and mendacity deployed in the
government's efforts to discourage Americans from learning
what is revealed in
CtC. It's truly astonishing.
A lot of folks are aware of the show-trial
events in which my wife and I have received state-engineered
public beatings meant to scare people away from the
truth about the "ignorance tax" scam. But many are unaware
of the overall campaign. This is a shame, really, because
a focused propaganda effort like this one is a very
powerful acknowledgement of the significance of
CtC's revelations.
While the majority of Americans do not
yet know how
CtC protects them from the vampire state, the vampire
itself certainly does. Dis-information campaigns like
this one make that very clear.
FORMER CBS REPORTER SHERYL ATKISSON describes
some aspects of this sort of dis-information campaign
in the following video. Despite the annoying preliminary
15 seconds or so of advertising, her presentation is
very much worth watching:
(H/T to Greg Belcher for finding
and forwarding this great presentation.)
Losthorizons.com is one of those websites specifically-targeted
by the corrupt interests at Wikipedia described by Atkisson.
The behind-the-scenes folks at that site won't allow
links on their pages to anything posted at
losthorizons.com, nor even just text corrections
of misinformation in their pages about the income tax.
That's the least of it. Click

scare campaign that's been actively spreading false
information in hope of discouraging legitimate media
attention, as well as men and women simply seeking the
truth about the tax and liberty from the scourge of
the "ignorance tax".
PLEASE GIVE SOME SERIOUS THOUGHT to the
fact that YOU being secure in your own freedom rests
on others learning the truth as well, and recognize
that it falls to you to help overcome the dis-information
campaign. Post and share

I HAVE DONE MY BEST to lead this country
to liberty from the mis-applied income tax. I have labored
hard. I've shed a lot of sweat, a fair bit of blood
and more than a few tears. But I seem to be pretty poor
at that kind of work.
When I have asked all of you for what I
firmly believe is a necessary resource to move the ball
downfield and give all of us the best chance at justice
and an end to the assault on the rule of law-- simple
testimonial videos requiring nothing from any of you
but the phone in your pocket and three minutes of speaking
from the heart-- I have had only a handful of people
answer my call.
I CAN'T KEEP GOING THIS WAY. I have to
be able to turn my attention away from writing new persuasive
or skepticism-addressing articles week after week, and
toward research, analysis and educational presentations
that will benefit everyone already in this community.
I need time to do some suing, and to bring together
the resources and talent toward that end.
As said, it is my firm belief that your
testimonial videos are the resource that I need to make
big things happen, and they are unquestionably the thing
I need to allow me to turn my attention away from trying
to get horses to drink at the waterhole to which I have
led them. Your words, in your great numbers and all
in your own different ways, will do that better than
anything I write possibly could.
And yet, you are not providing them. This,
despite my having been asking you for them for many
years now.
Therefore, with enormous reluctance, I
am making portions of this website restricted access
only. People have been urging me to do this for years
now, telling me I should impose a charge to access my
work-product, so as to enable me to keep producing.
I have never been inclined to charge fees
for access. I ask for donations, and will continue to
do that, and if they do not come, then I will conclude
that my work is of no value to anyone, and I will close
shop.
But I now WILL charge a special
something for access to some key portions of that
work.
Opening selected pages on
losthorizons.com comprising higher level legal
resources now requires the submission of testimonial
videos, as discussed, described and demonstrated
here.
The videos must be accompanied by scans of a recent
educated filing along with responsive documents from
the IRS, whether in the form of a check, a notice
identifying and reflecting the filed return, or
"return" and "account" transcripts for the year for
which the return was filed. Names must be shown in
full.
Similarly, if
an email comes my way asking for guidance or assistance,
I had better already have your video posted.
I HATE TO PLAY IT THIS WAY. But I want
to win.
I'll tell you a story from when I was coaching
my kids in soccer. Both of my kids at a certain age
in their careers had run into a wall common to all but
the very exceptional. They had gotten to be pretty good,
and they wanted to enjoy the benefits of their hard
work. But the arrival of this interest coincided with
a new self-consciousness which made them reluctant to
risk failing and looking foolish. So, they were hanging
back from seizing the main chance when it appeared,
and driving for the goal.
My solution was to post on the wall of
our dining room a couple of simple points about self-discipline,
the chief of which is this: You can't score a goal if
you don't take a shot.
That's how it is here, too. If you don't
stand up, you are laying down, and you'll never score
that goal.
Here is what my kids live by now, in their
own version of that lesson. I hear it from them all
the time as they excel (accompanied by the sound of
a father's breast swelling with pride): Go hard,
or go home.
You, too. Go hard, or go home.
Send those videos.
Do I ask for a lot? I want your victories
to post, your financial support, your efforts at spreading
the word, and your beautiful faces and inspiring words,
too. It IS a lot.
But it's not too much. I'll let Thomas Paine explain:
"Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered;
yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder
the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we
obtain too cheaply, we esteem too lightly. Heaven knows
how to put a proper price on its goods; and it would
be strange indeed, if so celestial an article as freedom
should not be highly rated.”
June 22- In 1633, the Supreme Sacred Congregation
of the Roman and Universal Inquisition forces Galileo to recant his view that
the Sun, not the Earth, was the center of the universe. In 1898, U.S. Marines
land in Cuba. In 1978, Pluto's satellite, Charon, is discovered. In 2009,
Kodak announces that it is discontinuing production of Kodachrome film. In
2012, Paraguayan President Fernando Lugo is removed from office by impeachment.
We each have our reasons, and our story.
It's time, and it's needed, for you to share yours with
the world.
"The day we see truth and do not speak
is the day we begin to die."
-Martin Luther King, Jr.
What does it for you?
Is it simply because no moral and upstanding
person has any choice when it comes to telling the truth
over his or her signature, whether on tax forms or anywhere
else?
Is it recognition of the critical importance
of the rule of law, and the knowledge that if everybody
leaves its caretaking to someone else, it will soon
be lost to us completely?
Is it the money?
Maybe it's just simple respect for your
own rights as a human being, who is not and cannot be
not involuntarily subordinated to others?
Maybe it's just simple respect for your
general civic responsibility to be the grown-up and
enforce frugality and restraint on a big, powerful creature
of our own devising which otherwise is like a badly-raised
teenage boy given whiskey and car keys and let loose
on the road to wreak havoc?
Or is it, perhaps, a more acute anxiety
that if our bonfire of a state isn't damped, and quickly,
it'll soon burn down the house around us all?
What IS it that firms up your jaw and stiffens
your resolve?
It's time to take off the bushel and
share your light!
I would like you to think about what it
is that motivates you for a few moments (or all day,
if you like), and then send me your thoughts. I want
to put YOUR reasons to work inspiring folks who don't
yet understand what this is all about.
In this day and age, the most effective
way for you to share your thinking for the benefit of
others is to video-record yourself talking about how
you feel, and explaining what inspires and motivates
YOU.
All you need is a webcam or cell-phone
equipped with a camera. If you don't have, or know how
to use, one of these, have a friend help. (And if
you use a cell-phone, please have the orientation
horizontal, not vertical-- that is, so that the
screen of the phone on which you are watching
yourself while taping looks like a TV or movie
screen.)
If needed, write a little script for yourself.
Better, though, to just speak extemporaneously, after
spending a little time sorting out your thoughts and
getting down into your heart. Perhaps make it a video
of someone in your family, or a close friend, interviewing
you.
Dress "business casual". Be well-groomed.
Keep yourself to no more than 2 or 3 minutes,
and keep in mind that the purpose is
not to educate,
but to INSPIRE, ENCOURAGE and ENERGIZE. Your video will
be one of many to be shared. If you need to go
longer to really say your piece, go for it (but long
or short I may edit if something strikes me as
wandering or off-key).
You needn't feel any obligation to be profound,
and you shouldn't try to explain anything about the
law, other than to say that you have read it and you
know it's on your side. You just need to be sincere,
and uplifting. Your object is to make your audience
want to have what you have, and to be where you are
in your heart.
Don't talk to ME, or to others in the
CtC-educated community. Make remarks that are suited
to the NON-CtC-educated community, and at the same
time, be mindful that you're speaking to an
audience that doesn't yet know ANYTHING about the subject,
and whose first reaction is, "This must be illegal;
this must be dangerous; this is too good to be true."
You want to pull that audience right past such things,
and straight to a focus on truth, morality, and our
American heritage of liberty and the rule of law.
Remember: INSPIRE, ENCOURAGE, ENERGIZE.
Speak about rights. Speak about morality,
and the obligation of a grown-up and responsible person
to speak the truth and to enforce the Constitution.
Speak about everyone's duty
to give to God what is God's, always, and to Caesar
only what is really Caesar's. Speak of your obligation
to respect yourself, and to look out for the current
and future well-being of your children and your fellow
citizens. Speak of
CtC, and what its information has done for your
understanding and resolve. Show the book.
If you have had victories, describe them.
Better still, show them, if possible.
Be clear about just what you accomplished:
EVERYTHING back-- Social Security, Medicare and all;
a "notice of deficiency" closing notice; an on-paper
agreement or acknowledgment that your earnings weren't
subject to the tax and everything withheld or paid-in
was an "overpayment"; a transcript showing all $0s;
or whatever happened.
When you speak of state victories, name
the state. If you had to overcome balkiness from a tax
agency before winning any victory, describe that, too!
If you're in a battle now, speak of your
resolve to uphold the law, come what may. If you haven't
yet begun to act, speak of your decision to do so, and
your plans.
Remember, your purpose is to INSPIRE, ENCOURAGE
and ENERGIZE.
If you're dealing with ongoing balkiness,
describe that, too, if you wish-- but be sure to explain
why you're not discouraged, and why you are not standing
down, not slinking back into the barn, and not choosing
to endorse the lies.
Identify yourself. Anonymity is for criminals and self-doubters, not
CtC
warriors. Naming yourself is a requirement, and your
name will appear as a subtitle on the video when I
prepare it for posting, in any event.
Mention what you do for a living, whether
you're a doctor, homemaker, lawyer, trucker, IT guy
or gal, or a retiree or student. Help people understand
that the company of grown-up activist Americans they
are being invited to join cuts across all demographics
and all interests-- with the common denominator being
respect for the law and love of the principles on which
this great country was founded.
This is your chance to get a LOT accomplished.
We've all had frustrating occasions of
trying to explain all this to a friend, neighbor, family
member or co-worker, only to pile up against the wall
of a mind not yet ready to listen and learn. Here is
your chance to address a self-selected audience of folks
who have themselves decided that it's time for them
to begin paying attention, and have clicked on your
testimonial for exactly that reason.
Further, think about this: 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.
Again, 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.

Getting Free Of The "Income" Tax Scheme Is As Easy As
Falling Off A Bike
To get an idea of how today's "income" tax scheme works,
try this little exercise:
Think of the federal government as a guy named Bob,
who lives down the street from you in a town that is
really big on bicycles. Bikes get used for commuting,
deliveries, shopping, etc.. In fact, other than walking,
bicycles are the exclusive form of transportation in
your town.
Your neighbor Bob has a by-the-mile bicycle-renting
business-- "Bob's Bicycles". Bob's Bicycles is far and
away the biggest business in town.
Part of Bob’s success is because he does a lot of contract
business. However, Bob doesn't just get paid by riders
who have signed an agreement with him, or even just
those using Bob's bikes. Bob gets something every time
anybody in town does any riding at all, through an odd
combination of circumstances that took many years to
come together.
Here's how it happened...
Bob's Bicycles was launched long ago by the great grandfather
of the present Bob (Bob IV). Great Grandpa Bob started
out not only with a main location for his contract business--
he also had the bright idea of setting up spots around
town where he parked some of his bikes for use by the
more occasional rider, on an "honor system". Anyone
could take and use one of these bikes, but they were
expected to keep track of their mileage, and send Bob
a "1040 Mileage Ridden/Rent Due Form" (and the appropriate
rent), periodically. The initial design of the form
was like this:
I, ______________,
rode a Bob's Bicycle a total of _____ miles
this year.
At Bob's rental
rate of $.15 per mile, I owe Bob $______
I said that Great Grandpa Bob planned to deal with these
occasional riders on the "honor system", and that's
true. But he liked his money, too, and didn't want to
miss anything that was due him. So, after setting up
the "self-serve" locations, Great Grandpa Bob went around
handing out "W-2, 1099 or K-1 Rider Reporting Forms"
to every other business in town. The forms-- accompanied
by notices that if Bob didn't get his rent from someone
riding a bicycle in connection with any business, he
would sue the company involved-- said:
June 23- In 1888, Frederick Douglass becomes the
first black American to receive a major party (Republican) nominating vote for
President of the United States (the final nomination ultimately went to Benjamin
Harrison). In 1917, BoSox pitcher Ernie Shore retires 26 of the Washington
Senators in a row after replacing Babe Ruth on the mound, who had been ejected
for punching the umpire. In 1972, the hidden audio-recording equipment in the
Oval Office captures President Richard Nixon and White House Chief of Staff H.
R. Haldeman discussing the use of the CIA to obstruct FBI investigation of the
Watergate break-in. In 2016, a majority of British voters decide it's time to
leave the European Union.

You Can’t Fight Well When You Don’t Know
What You’re Fighting About
If you are having an argument
with the IRS or any other tax agency,
You are NOT being presumed to have made “corporate
profit”.
You are NOT being alleged to have received “foreign
income”.
You are NOT entangled in an invisible “adhesion
contract”.
You are NOT being obligated by a law whose subject
is never identified.
You are being targeted because REAL EVIDENCE exists
that YOU PERSONALLY HAD “INCOME” to which the revenue laws apply--
even though that evidence is almost certainly incorrect,
and CAN be corrected.
CtC WARRIOR SanDiegoScott has put together
a great little 20-question quiz to test your knowledge of the law
regarding the United States "income" tax. Test yourself, test your
friends and family! Test your accountant and tax attorney, and help
them learn the liberating truth!!
"Never must thou take up a false cry, or join hands
with the guilty by giving false witness in their favor. Never must
thou follow with the crowd in doing wrong, or be swayed by many
voices so as to give false judgment; even pity for the poor must
not sway thee when judgment is to be given."
-Exodus 23:1-3
Doing A Little High-Payoff Math
IF EACH PERSON receiving this newsletter each week distributed as
few as 100 of any of
the great outreach tools featured here to co-workers, friends,
neighbors and family members (or just strangers on the street, in
the mall, etc...), we could have SEVERAL MILLION new Americans
suddenly introduced to the liberating truth about the tax!
Just like that! In one week!
C'mon, people, let's roll on this!
“Most of the important things in the
world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when
there seemed to be no hope at all.”
When directed to a page by topic or link, read everything.
I know that this can mean the investment of a lot of time, attention
and effort, but although some may imagine otherwise, I don't write
as much as I do because I can't think of any other way to spend
my time...
Furthermore, when you encounter a hyperlink within, or associated
with, the text you are reading, follow it!
It is pretty common these days for web-based material to be littered
with hyperlinks. Sometimes the purpose is to provide definitions
or examples, in order to ensure that folks reading the original
material aren't presented with a word or reference which they don't
understand. Sometimes the links lead to illustrations pertinent
to the original text.
It is common-- and perfectly understandable-- for folks who are
confident that they are familiar with language or references within
the main text they are reading to get in the habit of skipping over
included links. I do it all the time, myself!
However, I very rarely include links for definitional or explanatory
purposes; and when I DO make a link out of text in one page it is
generally to another self-contained page, rather than merely illustrative
material. These other pages contain material the clear understanding
of which I deem highly important for the proper and complete understanding
of the original page. (Links to
CtC, the
Victories pages,
CtC Warriors and so on are obvious exceptions to this general
rule. On the other hand, a link to the victory
Highlights or 'Every
Which Way But Loose' pages, which might seem like such exceptions,
are not. The special selection of victories on those pages, and
the filed docs and tax-agency correspondences included therewith,
themselves constitute highly instructive material which merits careful
attention. Thus care needs to be taken in all cases.)
Please make a habit of clicking on all provided links and at least
looking briefly to ensure that the linked page is one with which
you are completely familiar from another study session.
Finally, please keep in mind that, annoying though it may seem at
first blush (but not, I trust, upon reflection), I constantly tweak
material already posted. Obviously this doesn't mean that every
page is in flux at all times, but it does mean that if you are directed
to a page that IS familiar, it's worthwhile to read it through again
if it's been a while since your last having done so.
