• "The Great Tax Deception: How the IRS Preys on Americans and What You Can Do About It" argues that the federal income tax was never legally intended for citizens of the 50 states – only federal employees and D.C./territory residents. The IRS enforces compliance through intimidation and misinformation, despite lacking legitimate jurisdiction.
• Signing the 1040 Form constitutes a self-assessment under penalty of perjury, shifting the burden of proof onto taxpayers. Wages earned in sovereign states are not taxable under IRC § 861, though the IRS suppresses this truth.
• Stop filing 1040s, revoke wage withholding via a corrected W-4 (citing IRC § 3402(n)) and demand the IRS prove jurisdiction – which it cannot. The agency's own manuals admit it lacks resources to pursue most non-filers.
• Opt out of the financial enslavement system by converting wealth into untouchable assets like physical gold/silver or decentralized cryptocurrencies. Build local independence through barter networks, community agriculture and mutual aid to bypass the dollar.
• Every dollar withheld from the IRS starves wars, surveillance and oppression. Alternatives like the FairTax or tariffs could replace income taxes, but true freedom comes from decentralizing power and rejecting compliance.

For over a century, the federal income tax system has operated on deception, fear and outright fraud – conditioning Americans to believe they owe a portion of their labor to an unaccountable bureaucracy. But the truth, buried in legal codes and court rulings, reveals a shocking reality: The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has no legitimate authority over most Americans, a fact revealed in the book "The Great Tax Deception: How the IRS Preys on Americans and What You Can Do About It."

The income tax, as written in 1913, was never intended to apply to the people of the 50 states – only to federal employees and residents of Washington, D.C., and U.S. territories. Yet through intimidation and misinformation, the IRS has convinced generations to voluntarily confess to debts they don't legally owe.

The system thrives on psychological manipulation. The 1040 form is a trap – a self-assessment that shifts the burden of proof onto the taxpayer. By signing it, you admit liability under penalty of perjury, even when no law requires it.

The IRS counts on this fear-driven compliance, knowing most Americans won't question their authority. But the law is clear: Wages earned in the 50 states are not taxable under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC § 861).

The term "United States" in tax statutes refers only to federal enclaves, not sovereign states like Texas or Ohio. Courts have repeatedly affirmed this distinction, yet the IRS ignores it, relying on threats to enforce a system built on lies. But breaking free starts with education:

• Stop filing 1040 forms.
• Revoke withholding by submitting a corrected W-4 to your employer, citing IRC § 3402(n).
• If the IRS sends notices, demand proof of jurisdiction – they can't provide it.

Their own manuals admit they lack resources to pursue non-filers, leaving millions untouched. Organizations like Freedom Law School provide legal strategies to challenge IRS overreach, proving that resistance isn't just possible – it's lawful.

Stop funding tyranny: How to legally exit the IRS system

But the deeper battle is against a financial system designed to enslave. The Federal Reserve's inflation devalues your earnings, while the IRS siphons what remains.

Opt out by converting wealth into untouchable assets: physical gold, silver and decentralized cryptocurrencies. Local economies – barter networks, community gardens and mutual aid – bypass the dollar entirely, starving the beast.

Abolishing the IRS isn't a fantasy: Alternatives like the FairTax (a national sales tax) or tariff-based revenue could fund government without punishing productivity. But real freedom comes from decentralization – rejecting dependence on a corrupt system. Every dollar withheld from the IRS is a dollar not funding wars, surveillance or tyranny.

The choice is yours: Comply out of fear or stand on the law. The IRS's power is an illusion – one that crumbles when enough people wake up. Stop confessing, and stop funding your own oppression.

The path to liberty begins the moment you say no. Reinforce that hard "no" by taking these key actions:

• Educate yourself: Study IRC § 861 and Treasury Regulation § 1.861-8(f)(1).
• Stop filing: Withdraw from the system by halting 1040 submissions.
• Revoke withholding: Submit a W-4 exemption to your employer.
• Protect assets: Move wealth into gold, silver or privacy-focused cryptocurrencies.
• Build local independence: Support barter systems, community agriculture and mutual aid networks.

The IRS fears an informed public. Knowledge is your weapon – use it.
