Is Taxation Voluntary?
Jan Helfeld interviews Senator Harry Reid about government coercion. Reid maintains that taxation is voluntary despite all evidence to the contrary.

How does Harry Reid get into this bind? Well, by arguing that the government is not forcefully taking money from some citizens through taxes in order to provide goods and services for others. In his attempt to dispute this fact, he finds himself arguing that taxes are voluntary, which by the way, is preposterous.

Yes, our tax system is
a voluntary system.
I voluntarily opt out of
prison by paying my
taxes.
Also, our criminal justice
system is voluntary also.
I voluntarily opt out of
lethal injection by not
strangling Senators.

Actually ‘voluntary’ is not far from the real truth. Most people have no idea what the IRS is and why they are legally required to pay them.

Research shows the ‘tax’ is really a voluntary contract between the IRS and an individual. 1099/W2 is your signature on the contract, and you must honor the terms of the contract (tax code).

Sean, there is no need to research anything. The signature is a coerced signature. You are not given the option to opt out of the system. Ergo, it is not voluntary.

And a contract has two obliged parties. When has government ever defined its part of the contract and lived up to it?
