THEY KNOW IT IS
SEDITIOUS TREASON, but
THEY DON'T CARE, -
BECAUSE THAT'S THEIR PLAN !
IRS
Commissioner T. Coleman Andrews, who served as IRS Commissioner for nearly 3 years
during the early 1950s, made the following statement shortly after his
resignation.
"Congress [in implementing the Sixteenth Amendment] went beyond merely
enacting an income tax law and repealed Article IV of the Bill of Rights [the
4th Amendment], by empowering the tax collector to do the very things from
which that article says we were to be secure.
It opened up our homes, our papers and our effects to the prying eyes of
government agents and set the stage for searches of our books and vaults and
for inquiries into our private affairs whenever the tax men might decide,
even though there might not be any justification beyond mere cynical
suspicion.
The income tax is bad because it has robbed you and me of the guarantee of
privacy and the respect for our property that were given to us in Article
IV of the Bill of Rights. This invasion is absolute and complete as far
as the amount of tax that can be assessed is concerned. Please remember that under the Sixteenth
Amendment, Congress can take 100% of our income anytime it wants to. As
a matter of fact, right now it is imposing a tax as high as 91%. This is
downright confiscation and cannot be defended on any other grounds.
The income tax is bad because it was conceived in class hatred, is an
instrument of vengeance and plays right into the hands of the communists.
It employs the vicious
communist principle of taking from each according to his accumulation
of the fruits of his labor and giving to others according to their needs, regardless
of whether those needs are the result of indolence or lack of pride,
self-respect, personal dignity or other attributes of men.
The income tax is fulfilling
the Marxist prophecy that the surest way to destroy a capitalist
society is by steeply graduated taxes on income and heavy levies upon the
estates of people when they die.
As matters now stand, if our children make the most of their capabilities and
training, they will have to give most of it to the tax collector and so
become slaves of the government. People cannot pull themselves up by the
bootstraps anymore because the tax collector gets the boots and the straps as
well.
The income tax is bad because it is oppressive to all and discriminates
particularly against those people who prove themselves most adept at keeping
the wheels of business turning and creating maximum employment and a high
standard of living for their fellow men.
I believe that a better way to raise revenue not only can
be found but must be found because I am convinced that the present
system is leading us right back to the very tyranny from which
those, who established this land of freedom, risked their lives, their fortunes
and their sacred honor to forever free themselves [they thought -
