OK, here is my take - as am ultimate player and CPA focused in
taxation.  Your post documents some of the law written around taxation
in the United States and the jurisdiction of Treasury.  I didn't take
the time to check out the website - or even read your entire post...
What would be really helpful would be if you could identify a case -
say in the last 25 years - where a taxpayer actually avoided paying
taxes by prevailing in court using the arguments above.  My focus is
on the corporate side of the taxation, but I suspect that no
individual has gone beyond a district court (even in Liberal MN) and
avoided taxation on any of these points.  It may be interesting for
you to take a look at cases where an individual has lost and what
penalties are imposed on those who don't pay their taxes - these can
easily amount to more than the original taxes themselves.
I suggest you have the person behind this website prepare your return
and agree in writing that he/she will defend this for you at no
charge, and indemnify you for any penalties...

Corey has the right to use this forum to question your question, just
as you have the right to pose the question - great world, you are both
right.

I wasn't aware that there was a "special" bucket for war taxes.?  By
"getting away" with it, wouldn't you be getting away with not paying
for education or any other public service you may deem valuable?

agreed, many things are patriotic-even protesting the protestors may
be.  depends on your point of view. my experience is that those who
are outspoken about such political dogma are always correct - no
matter what issue is at hand - kind of like you and Corey and this
thread.
