As a commentator has noted, Dennis is not alone. Keeping my comments brief, I simply offer this online version of a letter I sent to the IRS: http://www.synapticsparks.info/admit_or_deny/index.html I'm still putting my forum together, but it is usable if the Status Quo Brigade wants to play in my sandbox: http://www.synapticsparks.info/dialog/index.php But don't bother me until after you have read through my website.

I am self employed and I had my own business in 2005. In 2008 the IRS decided that they were going to audit me. I sent them bank statements, electric bills, proof of the lease abeing in my name with the payment amount, etc. Instead, they chose to ignore the information that I sent and base my audit on statistics. They basically told me that I made $40,000 when I did not and they allowed me to right off about 1,700 in rent when it should have been about 7,000. Any one with sense would see this is clearly a mistake. If I made $40,000 like they said how in the world did I get away with paying $141 a month for rent. My rent was actually $800 a month. What person owns a business and pays $151 for rent and have $150 light bill and $100 gas bill each month. How stupid is this? To make a long story short, according to them I now owe 12,000. How can I pay 12,000 on money I never made.

I am in total agreement with Dinah- I am so sick to death of you tax dodgers pretending to be modern-day Patrick Henrys when all you really are are freeloaders. Unless you are willing to go off and live in a cave and stay off the highways we pay for, stop sending your children to public schools we pay for, live under the protection of police, use libraries hospitals etc. etc. you really need to stop the d**n posing. You claim that income taxes are Unconstitutional, but you have no problem using all of the services they pay for. So what do you think- you are entitled to these services which are paid by the rest of us? Here's where I depart slightly from Dinah's post- I actually hope you end up in jail. You freeloading morons with your sixth-grade concept of the Constitution makes me sick. One more time, Ok? The Constitution allows for Amendments. The Constitution was Amended to permit a Federal Income Tax. Simple enough for you? I doubt it.

Your tax dodging scheme: "Wages are not income" has been consistently struck down by the US Supreme Court. You're lucky you haven't been prosecuted and convicted by a jury of honest taxpayers, who, by the way, never have any sympathy for people like you. People like you who use the services that our tax dollars provide such as driving on our roads and highways, sending your kids to public schools which are partially supported with tax dollars, flying American air space, the safety of which is regulated by the FAA, taking medications which have been researched and deemed safe by the FDA, and I could go on and on. Your rant identifies you as a freeloader not an abused patriot. You go, IRS!

To Jim, what ever gave you the impression that Dennis is alone. Is it because only he signed his name? I'm sure alot more names can be collected. As Aafes wrote, thousands and thousands have protested, and, one day our elected officials will listen. To Aafes, "We the People" not You the Bureaucracy.

Thank you for your thougths, Jim, which I accept as being shared with a kind spirit and a touch of humor, however, I have to respectfully disagree with your conclusion; catchy headline that it is. Ahhhh, s****.. May I also suggest that if you can get past the massive social programing in multiple forms (using guilt-mongering to fear to intimidation) that is done to wear us into submission and acceptance of this tyranny, the lawlessness is as clear as day? Just reading the codes and regs or the Int. Rev. Manual (IRM) does wonders and contrary to popular programing, that stuff can be read and understood mainly because of searchable web accesses to the codes and the IRM. Now doesn't that sound like more fun than all of the other things that folks do in America for fun........ Well then, let's just keep entertaining ourselves in our favorite ways while the IRS cuts the bottom out of our pockets and we have no clue how to prevent it. Costly entertainment, I'd say. Just a thought. I do apprecaite your insight about overcoming IRS alone and your comment about an advisor being used against me. Thanks for those thoughts. If you don't mind, Jim, there's one thing you've mis-understood, unless I mis-typed something. (I'll re-check my original text to see if I mis-stated something. Thanks for the heads-up.) It's not IRS to which I intended to refer concerning perjury. The company who issued the groundless 1099-MISC did so under penalty of perjury. There is an IRS Form 1096 that is required to be submitted with any 1099's that are submitted. The issuing company may have a perjury problem, especially since they were given notice prior to issuing a 1099 about me in Jan., 2003. I fully agree about not having the personal standing to bring another party under the perjury oath. If you have other thoughts, maybe other readers would benefit from them or our exchange of thoughts. Blessings to you and yours, Jim.

Ripoff Report submitter, Denny, replies to Aafes: Thanks, Aafes. The best spirit that I can attribute to your comments is that you care for me so much, that you'd prefer to see me suffer less, perjure myself, pay unlawfully assessed taxes that reward the lawbreaker/perps for their criminal activity, be ok with knowing that the $$$$$ I've paid is used to further undermine the values that brought blessings upon America from Heaven (not "the State") for decades after our founding and spare myself the trip to the poor house. Gosh, Aafes, that's a really great pathway, especially for harlots who take the paths of least moral and/or financial resistance without accepting responsibility for their choices which do have serious consequences for good or evil and think that they'll escape the eternal judgement by our Creator/Father who hates harlotry and the love of mammon (which is the opposite of Faith, which He loves) that is usually associated with such thinking. No, Aafes, I think that a happy-face evaluation of your comments is seriously over-generous towards the more apparent spirit of those comments. Can anyone find any legal merit or substance to support your comments from the US tax codes and high court decisions (since 1862)? It's well proven every day by millions of Americans who comprehend the nature and reasonable applications of "income" tax laws well enough and work with no concern for IRS involvement because these folks know that they're not generating a legal tax liability in the first place. They don't render their work to Caesar so what's Caesar's problem? There shouldn't be any problem in an up-right operation, Asfes. It's called the private sector; Caesar is public sector and a different world. Any attempt to apply a practical support side to your comments (99% rhetoric) only serves to further illustrate IRS corruption which you seem to accept and concede is inevitable. The Scriptures I read instruct me to resist evil and it will flee from me. (I'll allow for differences in callings.) The alternative explanation for support your comments is that IRS is an up-right operation and anyone who seeks the protections of our own laws and high court rulings are just a bunch of rebellious slackers. Sorry, Aafes, but that won't wash anywhere amongst all of the reasonable folks who are NOT being paid-off by the corruption. Take this IRS dynamic to another level, Aafes; sound-out anyone about their honest gut-feelings (conscience) about IRS; nobody I've ever met gets all warm and fuzzy about IRS on any level. I can think of many corporate operations that enjoy superior public support. I wonder what the difference is? How about sowing righteousness and harvesting the same in abundant measure? My point is that our gut-feelings are a big clue amongst living souls, Aafes. Ignore them if you wish but please don't project your personal habits and preferences upon anyone else. End of prelude: So, lest anyone take your comments seriously and be discouraged by same, I'm obliged to offer rebuttal to your comments and the foundations upon which they may reasonably be assumed to be based. 1.) As to your quickness to label me to be a tax protester, you incriminate yourself greatly in doing so and then hiding behind the IRS opinion of such is right on que. If this is how you think, I think that it's time for you to bring us some detailed legal substance that illustrates just how up-right IRS is. This support needs to start with IRS's bona fide authority to exist; then its lawful authority to operate in the 50 several states as opposed to an existance & operations in the statutory "UNITED STATES". When you get that delivered, please proceed to justify their administrative practices that to my best study to date, defy current statutory and regulatory texts, high court rulings and their own operations Manual. I think that every reader on the planet who has been touched by or may be touched by IRS would appreciate seeing the full legal lay-out of why anyone should believe that IRS is an up-right operation in those 2 distinct planes; existance and operations. Please take all of the time and space you need, Aafes. As far as our readers are concerned, I predict that there'll be a landslide of reports that thoroughly rebut your best efforts to justify IRS operations in particular with first-hand evidence to the absolute contrary, illustrating every form of IRS deficiency imaginable regarding their delivery of due process to IRS-alleged "taxpayers". 2.) Since you have offered absolutely no support in relevant codes and regulations or high court rulings to support your opinions, I can only conclude that for the sake of all of our readers, you need to come forth and tell us who you are, (not your name, etc. but who you are, what you do for a living, etc.), what your specific interest is in this matter and why you'd even bother to comment from abroad. I've been very clear concerning who I am and what my heart is in this matter and it's quite the opposite from avoidance of legal tax obligations with public evidence records of proof of personal performance of duty which are well established for decades and without complaints concerning all lawfully authorized and administered taxes. We're awaiting your response, Aafes. Blessings to all who are up-right before our Creator.

It says in your post that the taxpayer advocate would not help you - honestly, if they could not help you, then it's because your problems are far deeper and you truly need an attorney to sort through the mess you've created by trying to do this on your own. I noticed you also want to try and pursue them for perjury if they don't abide by rules - you can't accuse anyone of perjury if the party you're dealing with is not under oath, and you don't have the ability to administer an oath to tell the truth (whatever that truth is and from what point of view it is). Bottom line: If you want to fight the IRS - you don't do it alone. They will have you covered at every angle, every way, and on every side. I don't like the IRS either - but if I have a problem, I don't fight them alone. If you are against using an attorney, I would employ a tax consultant that used to work for the IRS. You will have better luck with someone in your corner that used to work for them - because you are experiencing what a true bureaucracy is. They can also negotiate a deal for you that will be far better than anything you can do on your own - which will be nothing. The BIG drawback is that if you do end up in a court of law, your consultant CAN testify against you in court - as there is no consultant-client confidentially under the law - you're conversations and your documents can be subpoenaed, unlike the priviledge existing if you hire an attorney.

You are on your way to the poor house. I suggest you do your research. Hundreds, if not thousands, of "tax protestors" (which you have certainly be categorized as by the IRS) have attempted to use your train of thought to avoid their obligations. Over 99% of the time the attempts were a failure. Don't even begin to believe you can take snippets of the tax code out of context or misinterpet them to suit your purposes, it simply won't hold water. The longer you avoid them the worse your situation will be. There is truth to the saying "Death and taxes are the only two things that are certain in life."
