"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….."

With Considerable Regret I Must Announce That The Seminar In Manchester Is Canceled Until Further Notice

IN AN EXPRESSION of the madness gripping the nation in response to the Covid-19 outbreak, the governor of New Hampshire has decreed that no restaurants may serve customers indoors until at least April 7, including the one in which this seminar was to take place. I'm terribly sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

If and when it becomes possible to reschedule, new plans will be posted. Meantime, find a few words about the Covid-19 craziness here.

The First 2019 Victories Are Posted!

...as CtC's cleansing of the 8-decade "ignorance tax" stain rolls into its 17th year.

IT'S ALWAYS NICE CRACKING OPEN A NEW YEAR for which the truth-respecting community has begun recovering amounts improperly withheld as "income" tax when no taxable activities were actually conducted. Today, the first recoveries of amounts withheld during 2019 are posted.

This begins the 17th year in which IRS and state tax agencies have issued these refunds to Americans smart enough to recognize the actual truth about the nature of the tax when they have found it and dedicated enough to the rule of law to demand that the truth be respected and upheld, come what may.

STARTING THINGS OFF TODAY is Brian Swanson's federal refund of everything withheld from him and given to Uncle Sam during 2019 against normal federal income tax and FICA surtaxes-- Brian's third CtC-educated victory with the feds so far. Brian proved to be not liable on the better part of his earnings (his private-sector earnings), with the modest amount he would have owed on his federal pension being zeroed out by the standard deduction and dependent credits (as shown on his return, here).

Here is Brian's refund notice (about which more in a moment):

You'll note that this complete refund has been diverted to alleged "frivolous" penalties ascribed to earlier years. There are two things worth mentioning about that.

One thing worthy of mention is that Brian is already in court strongly challenging the validity of the "frivolous" nonsense, meaning that the "diversion" is almost certainly in violation of 26 U.S.C. § 6330(e) and should be reversed without any fuss on Brian's motion. The other thing is the interestingly-misleading/inaccurate declaration on the lower left that, "As a result, your refund has been reduced to $0.00" (and the corresponding "Refund due" declarations in a couple of other places.

Brian's refund has NOT been reduced to $0.00-- it is $7,921.32. The only thing "reduced to $0.00" (for the moment) is the amount the IRS is sending back to Brian as a check, rather than as a credit against what it claims he owes for other years.

This may seem like a minor semantic matter, and of course, it really is. But at the same time, this apparently deliberate misstatement suggests to my cynical eye that it is meant to diminish the significance of the "no tax owed for 2019 despite lots of money being earned" admission being made by this notice.

***

OUR NEXT 2019 VICTORY is shared by Lauren Cox (who made a nice video to tell the world all about it). This one is a complete refund of everything withheld from Lauren and turned over to Colorado last year:

...in response to this return/claim.

BTW, you'll have noticed that Lauren speaks of her federal victory for 2018-- let's get that one on the board, too:

This one is a victory-in-progress. Lauren secured a complete admission by the IRS that she had no liability for 2018, and the return of about half of what had been withheld from her (plus interest!). See the filed return here. At the same time the agency is trying to intimidate Lauren into letting it keep the other half anyway, as discussed here.

The transparency of the agency's bad faith is even greater than usual in Lauren's case, since a false effort was made to challenge her claims of amounts withheld (false, because the agency had Lauren's sworn docs attesting to the facts, PLUS the same from the company that did the withholding-- that is, agreement with Lauren's claims from everyone with any first-hand knowledge). Lauren dispositively put to rest the agency's purported uncertainty, and yet it went ahead with its effort to steal the FICA withholdings.

Some of those working at the IRS can only be properly called "creatures"... Btw, the Colorado refund for 2018 to which Lauren also refers in her video can be seen here (from when newly-married Lauren Cox was Lauren Thompson, as shown above, but was sharing that first victory as "Lauren in Colorado").

***

WHILE WE'RE IN THE VICTORY-CELEBRATING MODE, let's enjoy a couple more, even though from last year...

Kevin & Linda Seiler

This refund of everything withheld during 2016 and given over to Kentucky comes on this amended return.

***

Kellon & Megan Fisk

This complete refund of 2018 withholdings was issued on this return/claim.

SO, HATS OFF TO ALL THESE AMERICAN HEROES! Brian and Lauren and Kevin & Linda and Kellon & Megan'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!

BTW, DON'T YOU WISH YOUR INSPIRING BEING-THE-STORM VIDEO was posted, too, like Lauren's? This is easy to do, and very important (plus it can get you some great losthorizons swag!). See (and carefully read in their entirety) these guidelines and encouragements.

Remember, it's all about upholding the law, and that is YOUR responsibility. Awakening others to this high and honorable duty is the best way to make it happen.

"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."

Celebrating The Irish

...in honor of St. Patrick's Day.

THE FOLLOWING LETTER was found by a friend in his attic some years ago. It may vary rather a good bit from the tone of 21st Century St. Patrick's Day celebrations, but I'm not sure that recent tone hits the right note, anyway.

After all, St. Patrick is honored for driving all the snakes out of Ireland, not for the invention of beer, green or otherwise.

IN ANY EVENT, THIS LETTER offers a fascinating glimpse into a serious reality of the recent past-- British-occupied Ireland-- from which can be taken a lesson all liberty-loving people should keep in their hearts.

Besides, the letter is charming, in its own way, and a very entertaining read. And it surely is Irish as all get out...

A Few Stats To Help The Pearl-Clutchers Let Them Go

...and to help the country recoil from the "national emergency" madness that threatens another permanent ratchet-up of Leviathan by exploitation of what is really just a panic- or propaganda-induced "crisis".

COVID-19 FIRST APPEARED as an already broken-out (spreading) disease in China in December of 2019. Source.

The incubation period for Covid-19 (time between infection and appearance of symptoms) is around 14 days. Source.

The world has experienced roughly 90 days of mostly unhampered transmission: the first quarantine outside of China didn't begin until early February and was just of one cruise-ship; all the while until well into March potential carriers arrived in airports throughout the world by the millions (2017 total air travel exceeded 4 billion passengers). After all that, as of March 16 there have been only 167,515 known infections with the disease, and 6,606 deaths (a 3.9% fatality rate)-- worldwide. Source.

In the USA, there have been a total of 3,487 symptomatic cases in the USA, with 68 resulting in death (a 1.95% fatality rate). Source.

Many infected people never feel or display symptoms, and even among symptomatic cases, 80% recover without requiring any special treatment. Source. This means the known infection number is anywhere from somewhat to very much higher than the 167,515 figure above, while the number of deaths remains the same.

In turn, this means the death rate is a somewhat to very much smaller percentage of persons infected than it appears without taking asymptomatic cases into account.

TO PUT COVID-19 in perspective, then, in light of the facts above, in 2017 (last year for which stats are available), 8,561 people died in traffic accidents in the USA on average during each 3-month period. Source.

Comparing the 68 USA deaths from Covid-19 to another current pandemic, this season there have been 36 to 51 million symptomatic cases of flu, with 22,000 to 55,000 deaths in the USA alone, so far. Source.

Worldwide, annual deaths from flu average between 300,000 in a mild year to 650,000 in a more severe one. Source.

ALL TOLD, COVID-19 appears to be only mildly virulent (millions of exposures, yielding only a handful of symptomatic cases) and mildly dangerous (1 in 51 symptomatic cases leading to death, almost exclusively-- perhaps actually exclusively-- within high-risk groups-- i.e., the elderly or those already compromised with other serious illnesses.) It is technically a "pandemic", but only because "pandemic" means nothing more than "appearing over a large area". It does NOT mean "dangerous" or "panic-worthy".

The fact that there is no cure for Covid-19 is no excuse for hysterical response to the disease. There is no cure for the flu, either, and the flu is FAR deadlier than Covid-19, even despite the existence and widespread deployment of a vaccine against the disease. But there are no panics being prompted by the flu.

It is time for America, to take a deep breath and STOP BOUNCING OFF THE WALLS!

WASHING HANDS and staying home when feeling ill are good practices, and frankly, should be done just to keep the common cold in check. Seeing a doctor if experiencing severe symptoms of Covid-19 is a good idea, just as is doing the same if experiencing severe symptoms of the flu (or tonsillitis, or the clap, or whatever).

But shutting down your business (or tolerating government pretenses of authority to shut down private businesses by decree), or panic-tanking the stock-market, are NOT good practices or good ideas. Instead, they are irrational and self-destructive panic reactions more suited to whiny children.

MY WISE AND WELL-READ FRIEND JONESY sent around a wonderful quote from the always excellent C.S. Lewis earlier today that, as Jonesy observed, speaks well to all this panicky nonsense. Here it is (from the 1948 essay, 'On Living in an Atomic Age', but Jonesy and I trust everyone will recognize the fit and just substitute "Coronavirus" for "atomic bomb"):

"In one way we think a great deal too much of the atomic bomb. “How are we to live in an atomic age?” I am tempted to reply: “Why, as you would have lived in the sixteenth century when the plague visited London almost every year, or as you would have lived in a Viking age when raiders from Scandinavia might land and cut your throat any night; or indeed, as you are already living in an age of cancer, an age of syphilis, an age of paralysis, an age of air raids, an age of railway accidents, an age of motor accidents.

"In other words, do not let us begin by exaggerating the novelty of our situation. Believe me, dear sir or madam, you and all whom you love were already sentenced to death before the atomic bomb was invented: and quite a high percentage of us were going to die in unpleasant ways. We had, indeed, one very great advantage over our ancestors; anesthetics; but we have that still. It is perfectly ridiculous to go about whimpering and drawing long faces because the scientists have added one more chance of painful and premature death to a world which already bristled with such chances and in which death itself was not a chance at all, but a certainty.

"This is the first point to be made: and the first action to be taken is to pull ourselves together. If we are all going to be destroyed by an atomic bomb, let that bomb when it comes find us doing sensible and human things; praying, working, teaching, reading, listening to music, bathing the children, playing tennis, chatting to our friends over a pint and a game of darts, not huddled together like frightened sheep and thinking about bombs. They may break our bodies (a microbe can do that) but they need not dominate our minds."

BREAKING NEWS

A cure has apparently been found for Covid-19.

Friday, March 20: A FRENCH CLINICAL TRIAL APPEARS TO HAVE IDENTIFIED A CURE for Covid-19 this past Monday (March 16, 2020), using a combination of Hydroxychloroquine and Azithromycin.

As reported, the results of the tested six-day treatment are quite unambiguous:

"At day 6 post-inclusion, 100% of patients treated with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin combination were virologicaly cured comparing with 57.1% in patients treated with hydroxychloroquine only, and 12.5% in the control group (p<0.001). These results are summarized in Figures 1 and 2. Drug effect was significantly higher in patients with symptoms of URTI and LRTI, as compared to asymptomatic patients with p<0.05 (data not show)."

Trial report, page 11 (URTI: upper tract respiratory infection, LRTI: lower tract respiratory infection).

It is to be noted that the Chinese had already been experimenting with chloroquine for some time, with what must be assumed to have also been positive results. The innovation by the French clinicians of adding the azithromycin to the mix is what appears to have taken a very good outcome to a spectacular one.

See the trial report here.

AND SHARE THIS POST WIDELY RIGHT AWAY!!! (It is permalinked at this address.)

Everyone in the world needs to learn of this hugely-important discovery right away, so that the increasingly lunatic and draconian responses to Covid-19 can be stopped dead in their tracks and rolled back immediately before they cause further political and economic harm.

GOING FORWARD, let's not miss the lesson offered here in regard to all the excess of media-fanned hysteria and all the huffing and puffing and despotic experiments in government overreach by the political class over the last six weeks or so...

As usual (and as usually unremembered at the onset of every "crisis" appearing capable of selling advertising and justifying tyrannical measures), the "Covid-19 crisis" has proven to be just another problem susceptible to conquest by unfettered human ingenuity. As is also so often the case, the "take charge" behavior of governments (and the "yapping it all up" by the hyenas of the mainstream media) just made things worse for everyone else.

Thanks to all the "take charge" usurpations made possible by all the yapping and the resultant hysteria in certain quarters, America (and much of the rest of the world) has a great deal from which it must now recover. But this painful recovery is not needed from the ill effects of a real plague. Rather, we must recover from the economic damage, societal disruption and political distortions occasioned by media and political-class efforts to exploit the Covid-19 situation good and hard, and for their own benefit.

Maybe we can remember how this all goes when the next "crisis" appears.

A Nice And Novel Testimonial Video

...focused on a major theft suffered by every copper-top, but seldom considered...

RICK CUNNINGHAM AND HIS WIFE ANN operate a small business out of the home. Both used to pay a horrendous "compliance cost" every year: two weeks of tedious slogging through a ton of records and paperwork as unwitting slaves to the "ignorance tax". Then they found the "red pill" exit from the Matrix-- CtC...

FOLKS, WATCH THIS FILM THROUGH and enjoy every minute. Then share it as widely as possible, accompanied by a copy of this document.

That document will help your correspondents understand that in addition to the money being taken from them improperly, and the time being taken from them improperly, their Constitutionally-limited republic and the rule of law are also being stolen away by the persistence of the "ignorance tax". It will also help them understand that stopping these crimes is entirely within their power.

Those with whom you do will thank you from the bottom of their hearts.

And, at the same time that you're thereby being a great neighbor, you will also be doing your duty as a great American. By sharing this video and that document widely you'll be helping to put into effect the Founders' plan for the proper regulation of the state!

Well done, Rick and Ann!

Remember 'War Games'?

THIS VIDEO PROJECTS THE PROGRESS of a nuclear exchange between Russia and the United States. It's frightening, as it should be, as well as sobering and instructive. My only criticisms are, first of all, that it fails to account for the imbalance that will now be present in any such exchange due to the new Russian hypersonic weapons.

Secondly, the video fails to account for China's contribution to the exchange against the US, which is a virtual certainty. China knows that if Russia goes, and the US survives, it goes soon after. So, that will not be allowed to happen.

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).

Inarguable (and nowhere disputed) proof of the first two statements above can be found concisely spelled-out in this little 7-page document. Whether the third is true for any particular person can be determined by consulting this guide to understanding "income-taxable privilege".

Daft And Despicable Deniers

What the hell is wrong with these people?!

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?

Important guest observations and commentary with an important afterword by Yours Truly

 

Where's The Liberal Outrage Now That Tulsi Gabbard Has Been Silenced Yet Again?

by Robert Bridge

Call someone by the wrong pronoun, or deny a biological male the right to use the women’s toilet and a person will feel the unbridled wrath of the Liberal inquisition. Ban an anti-war candidate in your own ranks, however, and that’s just par for course in the Democratic club.

‘Bad publicity is better than no publicity,’ as any marketer worth his salt understands. Yet Tulsi Gabbard, the anti-war, anti-interventionist Democratic presidential candidate, who should be the darling of every progressive, has virtually disappeared not only from the debate stage, but from the news cycle as well.

During Super Tuesday, the Iraq War veteran managed to pick up two delegates, which, under previous terms would have qualified her to participate, alongside Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden, in future Democratic debates on the road to the November elections. As predicted, however, the DNC changed the rules mid-game.

The DNC has banned the only woman left from the next Democrat debate. I don’t hear any complaints from the same women — Warren, Harris, Pelosi, et al — accusing “the country” of sexism. https://t.co/0DMVbMeLYp

— Mark R. Levin (@marklevinshow) March 7, 2020

Xochitl Hinojosa, head of communications for the Democratic Party, apparently in a preemptive strike against the hope that Gabbard would be given a podium at the upcoming debates, tweeted on Super Tuesday: “We have two more debates – of course the threshold will go up. By the time we have the March debate, almost 2,000 delegates will be allocated. The threshold will reflect where we are in the race, as it always has.”

Since then, the DNC has ruled that candidates must get at least 20 percent of the delegates as of March 15. Gabbard’s two delegates don’t meet this requirement.

Had Hinojosa and the Democratic Party elite reflected a bit longer about “where we are in the race,” however, they may have come around to a different conclusion. Like, for example, is it really the best optics to have two geriatric white male contenders steal the show from an upstart female who, having witnessed the atrocities of war firsthand, has acquired a soft spot for peace in the Middle East.

Afterword

BRIDGE DOES A NICE JOB laying out modern-day liberal hypocrisy, doesn't he? I fear, though, that perhaps he leaves too much to mere implication the even more important fact that not only does modern-day liberalism no longer stand for its 20th Century traditional causes, but it now is wholly-owned by the Military-Industrial-Congressional-Complex (and Israel) just as much as those who go by the label "conservatives".

I'm going to shore Bridge's article up by saying flatly what he says more obliquely: Tulsi Gabbard has been marginalized, excluded, and as much as possible dropped in the memory hole because she advocates a non-interventionist foreign policy-- that is, a REAL "America First" foreign policy. As a consequence, she has been treated just as Ron Paul was treated in 2008 and 2012 for just the same reason, despite being not only a woman, but a woman "of color"-- two supposed Democratic Party qualifications for high office (as ridiculous and childish as is such a view).

SO, THE REAL TAKEAWAY from the Tulsi Gabbard story is that neither major party, no matter the oppositional/adversarial pretenses of each, is going to shut down Leviathan. Both are in a symbiotic relationship with the beast; and the leadership of both comprise the creatures which make Washington, DC into the swamp against which demagogues from each party rail.

And why should this surprise anyone? Leviathans always seek control of the political process; and political machines always glom on to (and defend and exploit) whatever power structure has arisen.

There is only one way of shrinking Leviathan and restoring power to the American people, and that is by individual action on behalf of the law.

HAPPILY, THIS RESTORATIVE RESORT has been made easy for us by our prescient Founders. It needs only to be known by enough brave liberty-loving men and women to have its transformational effect.

Help make that happen. Spread this document like wildfire.

A New Policy

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 qualifying 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.”

Fear nothing but God.

What Makes YOU A Warrior For The Truth?

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 or unacceptable).

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-- 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. Don't get into details-- your audience is going to have no idea what a "LTR3176" is, and you will NOT be capable of explaining it adequately. This is an subject area concerning which you should speak from the heart, not the head.

If you haven't yet begun to act, share the reasons for your decision to do so, and your plans.

Remember, your purpose is to INSPIRE, ENCOURAGE and ENERGIZE.

Watch your own video after you record it and ask yourself: Putting yourself in the place of someone completely immersed in "the matrix"-- oblivious to any notions that you might have been a victim of an "ignorance tax", and comfortable with the status quo-- would the video you just made encourage you to push aside your comforting illusions and learn the liberating truth? If not, try again.

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, 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, 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.

So, please make and send those videos right away! You can share them with me via a cloud-based drive space like OneDrive.Live.com or GoogleDrive (if you do GoogleDrive you MUST give access permission to stategroups@losthorizons.com), or mail DVDs to me at 232 Oriole St., Commerce Twp., Michigan 48382, or even email to me if each file is no more than 20 megs (and you can break a video up if need be-- I can reassemble them). Render as .mpg or mp4, if possible; if not, send them how you have them and I'll make them work.

BTW: An encouraging and inspiring video will earn you access to the restricted pages on losthorizons.com and membership in the National Forum if you have also sent me a recent educated federal filing and IRS response (or relevant "return" or "account" transcript). I will be the judge of whether your submissions qualify for access, but if you do your best you should do fine.

Remember, the restoration of institutional respect for individual rights and the rule of law depends on enough individuals insisting upon it. Do your part to let those starting to rub the sleep from their eyes know that there is a community already waiting for their fellowship with open arms and open hearts and shining spirits.

See how some of your fellow warriors for the truth have done their parts in videos sent over the years, many of which are posted here.

"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."

Was Grandpa Really A Moron?

Critical Inquiries for a New American Century

Bob’s Bicycles

or

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:

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.

A Few Tips For Making Best Use Of This WebSite

USE THE SITE MAP!!!

USE THE SITE SEARCH!!!

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.

Assessing The Damage From The Misapplication Of The Income Tax

Man, are young Americans getting ripped off...!

"Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will. Find out just what any people will quietly submit to and you have the exact measure of the injustice and wrong which will be imposed on them, and these will continue till they have been resisted with either words or blows, or with both. The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they suppress."
