		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Mitchell,

One of the great things about the United States is our freedom to criticize our government (usually) without fear of reprisal. I share your dissatisfaction with the current income tax system, and I favor its replacement with a national sales tax.

I am curious, though, about your feeling that you have no duty to pay taxes of any kind. You must live in an area without police, fire, or emergency medical services. Parks and other preserved areas of greenspace don&#039;t buy themselves, either. Unless you would favor raising government revenue by imposing high tariffs on imports (and undoing that silly free trade stuff), how would you propose to pay those who carry out the appropriate functions of government: law enforcement officers, members of the Armed Forces, judges, federal prison guards, etc.?

Best regards,
Jeff]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I consider myself a part-time Web Worker and religiously follow your blog for tips and must-know information to better manage my online life and career.

However, as the author of &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.taxfreeworld.org/no_more_taxes&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;No More Taxes&lt;/a&gt; and an advocate of non-state self-governance, I am totally opposed to taxes of any flavor. Especially, the federal income taxes imposed by the U.S. federal government and collected by the Internal Revenue Service.

My book uncovers how taxes are illegal and unethical and how they forcefully demand a person to give up a part of their property to a force larger than themselves.

Personally, I will not be filing a tax return this year. There is no law, even in the United States Code (U.S.C.) that requires an income tax to be paid. In their law codes it specifically details payment of taxes fall under &lt;em&gt;voluntary compliance&lt;/em&gt;. Which means that you do not have to pay a penny to the government for taxes.

There has also been numerous Supreme Court cases that have determined American citizens do have the right to hold onto their property and not pay a single tax dollar.

Thought I would share this information for your readers to give them a different perspective on paying taxes. In anything, it is always good to know both sides to make the best and most accurate decision possible.

Thank you for allowing me to share my thoughts.]]></description>
