UPDATES:
* Important Preface to this Issue

This issue of The Tax Freedom 101 Report is dedicated solely to the upcoming Congressional hearings scheduled for late September which will be addressing the rampant and out-of-control collection and enforcement of internal taxation upon citizens of these United States. The demand for redress of grievances were brought forth by the efforts of the organization 'We The People' under Article I of the Bill of Rights.

Many of our new readers may not be aware of the recent developments in the Constitutional Revival Movement with respect to these hearings. Our long time readers have been kept well informed in past issues of developments surrounding this effort. Yet the general public, and most if not all other populist conservative organizations are still completely unaware of these scheduled hearings, what it took to get them scheduled, and more importantly what is at stake. This lack of "news" phenomenon can be contributed most undoubtedly to the blanket major media black-out by our *free* press. The seriousness surrounding the allegations being brought forth by the researchers who have been involved in unraveling the nearly 90 plus years of deception, fraud, and unconstitutional actions by government that have brought about this modern day version of involuntary servitude [slavery] for an all encompassing government is apparently just not news worthy. It is unlikely it would have been still even if Bob Schulz and his companion had perished in our nations capitol. The great debate now as the Constitutional Revival Movement prepares for these hearings is whether they will do more harm than good. Only time will tell. Are we on the verge of returning to Constitutional limited government, or are we approaching the final steps of complete and inescapable bondage?

Since many are still unaware of what can be gained, and what can be lost with respect to the upcoming hearings on Capitol Hill we are asking you dear reader to forward this issue far and wide to your neighbors, family, and friends with an appending note above the forward asking them to please read the following newsletter and then pass it along since the major media has decided to completely censor the news surrounding these soon-to-be proceedings.

Thank you. Now please enjoy the rest of this newsletter.

* Interview about the Redress of Grievances

Recently Geoff Metcalf of WorldNetDaily interviewed Bob Schulz regarding their petition of "Redress of grievances" regarding the 'legality' of the income tax. As our Tax Freedom 101 students know, we show that the income tax is 100% legal, and therefore Constitutional, yet it has been grossly misapplied, and forced upon innocent Americans to recapture the debt structured paper currency of the Federal Reserve System; the Federal Reserve's notes commonly and erroneously referred to as dollars. The transcript of the recorded interview as heard on the Geoff Metcalf show provides an excellent course of events which has transpired since the privileged 501(c)3 non-profit organization "We The People" came on board to investigate the aspects of internal taxation.

For the chronology of events which were outlined in this interview, and has lead up to the hearings scheduled for late September of this year on Capitol Hill, and which may transpire into the forwarding of a legislative agenda toward a nearly inescapable and totally unconstitutional National Retail Sales Tax click here.

NEWS:
* Hearing Planning in Full Swing
We The People Update - August 7th, 2001

The following We The People update is taken from their web site: http://www.givemeliberty.org

Preparations Proceed Full Steam

Government Announces Specific Dates & Location

The office of Congressman Roscoe Bartlett announced late Friday the specific dates and location for the Citizen's hearing. The proceedings will commence, as expected, on September 25th in room #311 of the Cannon House Office Building on Capitol Hill.

It is expected the hearings will last at least two full days. The hearing room holds approximately 100 people including participants and standing room observers.

Kick-Off Meeting in Las Vegas: Organized & Ready for Battle

45 Attorneys, CPAs, top tax researchers, information technology consultants and former government officials met in Las Vegas this past weekend to organize, plan and execute work activities in preparation for the upcoming hearing.

The two day meeting, according to Schulz and other participants "vastly exceeded expectations". As leader of the WTP organization, Schulz was elated after observing the "who's who" of the tax honesty movement work side by side on subject matter teams to develop specific lines of inquiry and evidence for the hearing. The all-day planning sessions went well into Saturday night and adjourned late Sunday afternoon.

Schulz and lead attorneys for the effort termed the meetings "models of productive teamwork". Schulz remarked, "It was gratifying to see these very intelligent and strong willed individuals work shoulder to shoulder, set aside their philosophical differences and engage in a very professional manner to plan and develop the high-quality work needed for the hearing."

Overview of the Plan & Organization

The group of 45 people was organized into a number of focused inquiry teams, each responsible for a specific segment of the hearing. The primary lines of inquiry fall into several categories including: IRS jurisdiction; statutory and regulatory questions of liability; Constitutional questions such as the fraudulent ratification of the 16th Amendment; 5th Amendment issues (Miranda & due process rights), and 4th Amendment questions dealing with illegal IRS seizures, liens and levies lacking warrants or court orders; and a miscellaneous team covering IMF files, IRS records systems, etc. Other team personnel were mobilized to address technology, public awareness and hearing logistics issues.

The group will be utilizing the latest information technologies to organize and communicate during the weeks proceeding the hearing. This includes a secured, data encrypted internet based work collaboration and team communications software system. At the actual hearing, a high-tech document management and evidence presentation system will be deployed, facilitating the rapid search, retrieval and display of regulations, publications, statutes, and supporting evidence.

The "top level" questions for DOJ and IRS generated from the planning effort will be provided to the government in a pre-hearing exchange on approximately September 10th. The questions will also be posted on the internet at that time. The government has committed to provide their expected rebuttal replies a week later.

Broadcast of the Tax Hearings

Because of the effective "black-out" of news coverage to-date by the dominant media, We The People has decided to proceed unilaterally to insure the public's live access to this historic hearing. Preparations are currently being made to broadcast "gavel-to-gavel" coverage of the hearings on coast-to-coast syndicated radio and a world-wide internet video "webcast" that will include color commentaries and appropriate background information. Preparations are also underway for video tapes of the proceedings and CD-ROMs that will have electronic copies of the inquiry, evidence, hearing transcripts and backup documentation.

Our Nation Without the Federal Income Tax

Because Schulz is convinced that "the income tax may well not survive these hearings", a large scale public information and education campaign is under development by We The People. The purpose of this initiative is to quell the potential, and needless fears of average Americans that somehow modern civilized life cannot exist without a federal income tax.

Indeed, Schulz says, "Our country functioned very well without an income tax throughout most of our nation's history. The mechanism for a peaceful and orderly transition to a non-income tax system has resided in Article 1, Section 9 of the Constitution since 1787. It provides for Congress to pass a legislative bill for tax money to be paid by each state in proportion to its population."

Schulz continues, "Although the transition will certainly not be without some level of political pain or inconvenience at the federal level, this is how our founding fathers envisioned our tax system was to work. The natural balance of political and financial power would be kept in check by the proximity of the people to their taxes and their government. In our current tax system, the proper role and power of the states and local government has been largely usurped and bypassed by the direct collection of income taxes from the people by the federal government. The unchecked growth and generally ineffective workings of the federal government are proof-positive of the inherent defects of our current tax system.

With an apportioned tax, this process would be reversed with large amounts of money (and its associated power) returning to both the states and local communities. Local needs such as education, community development, homelessness, etc. can all be addressed much more effectively and efficiently by local governments and local representatives without the "middleman" in Washington, D.C.

The people should have no fear that our federal government cannot function without income taxes. Because our government already receives significant income from duties, imposts and excise taxes and currently has (as discussed above) the constitutional authority to apportion direct taxes, there would be no problem defending the nation or providing for the other constitutionally mandated and basic functions of the federal government. In short, the people should not be needlessly cajoled into accepting a replacement tax such as the 'fair tax' or a national sales tax. Let the constitution work as it was written."

INFORMATION:
* The Upcoming Conference in Congress
Save-A-Patriot Fellowship fiduciary comments

The following information piece was provided to the members of the Save-A-Patriot via the newsletter The Liberty Tree. The Liberty Tree is a monthly members alert that accompanies the members assistance program.

John B. Kotmair, Jr. is the fellowship's founder and fiduciary. John has been around and involved in the Constitutional Revival Movement since the early sixties, and has seen it all and then some with respect to getting government officials to comply with their sworn oaths of office to uphold and defend the Constitution. He is of the firm opinion that only the people exercising their rights under the law will return us to Constitutional limited government, and this can only be accomplished by the methods of unity of purpose. The reason the fellowship was created, and most assuredly the reason for its continued existence. The Johnny-come-latelys involved in the movement have not seen the full force and corruption involved in all three branches of government to comprehend their uniformity of purpose in rolling us into a world government. They may soon realize that only fools rush in. We certainly hope this will not be the case and will support their efforts since there is no turning back now.

THE LIBERTY TREE
July 2001
from John B. Kotmair, Jr., Fiduciary

We have been getting numerous requests for the Fellowship to make a statement about Bob Schulz's hunger strike. Some have taken me to task for not publicly supporting Bob in this effort, and others have just asked my opinion on the value of what he has done and the Congress and Department of Justices' response to it. Others are inquiring if I'm to be part of the proceedings in September.

To begin: for years I have been on the record warning about quick solutions and fast "victories." Before there was any clamoring in Congress for alternative taxation, I contended that if I were the socialist strategists I would admit that there is a problem with enforcing the internal revenue code and call for its abolishment. This is just cornfield logic.

With the knowledge that we now have of the federal tax laws, and our constant effort to disseminate this knowledge, it just stands to reason that the only way to save the Federal Reserve and the world government effort is to derail our educational efforts. The most logical way to achieve this is to abolish the federal tax code before we are able to educate enough citizens about their true tax liability. That was, and is, the purpose of the struggle to make Liberty Works Radio Network successful enough to inform whole communities of these truths.

If we don't have the time to achieve this goal, the one world socialists and their stooges and dupes in Congress, will be able to convince the American public that they must continue to be taxed to support all of the unconstitutional government programs.

The high water mark of the Constitutional Republic was 1861. For in 1862 the federal government, against the constitutional intent of the framers, issued "bills of credit," and established permanent internal taxation. Before that the federal government was run totally by duties and imposts taxes. Seventy years later the socialist welfare programmers started with Social Security by the use of treaty law, and today, through such programs, the federal government has become all consuming. Of course this history is not taught in the public schools that have been totally taken over by the federal government. So, consequently most Americans believe all this government is needed and that they must be taxed to support it. This mindset is ingrained in and it cannot be overcome overnight. One hundred forty years of brainwashing will not be that easy to erase.

As Bob Schulz can verify, I counseled from the beginning against the hunger strike. I warned that it would not get any major media coverage using the example of a Fellowship member who took his own life back in the late 1980s believing that it would draw attention to the state and federal tyranny. He left a note explaining why he took his life, but the local media put a different slant on the story making his well intended but obviously wrongful act meaningless. Likewise, as predicted, there was no major media coverage of Bob's hunger strike.

By the good graces of Roscoe Bartlett, the Congressman from my Congressional District, Bob's hunger strike was ended when Bartlett found and convinced a sympathetic attorney within the Department of Justice, Dan Bryant, and Congressman Henry Hyde to hold a congressional hearing in September, and bring IRS officials to that hearing to answer questions about the federal tax code.

Bob contacted me and asked if I would participate in the preparation and at the hearings. I advised him that if it was financially possible I would. At the present time I am trying to raise the travel expenses to do so.

Have I changed my mind about fast victories? Not at all.

What do I expect the outcome to be? First, I expect that there will be some reason to cancel the hearings, and if that does not occur, I expect that the hearings will be held in such a way that it will be difficult or impossible to get any message out therefore making them meaningless.

What If I am totally wrong and the hearing goes as Bob and others hope they will? Again I do not expect any major media coverage, leaving us right back where we started disseminating the video and audio coverage to the Patriot community and as many Americans that we can persuade to watch them.

What happens if the hearings are counter productive and used by the one world socialists to abolish the federal tax code and usher in an alternative form of taxation? In my opinion, it will probably be the "national sales tax," due to the fact that the "flat tax" is so apparently unconstitutional. I am also of the opinion that if the "national sales tax" is instituted and its constitutionality challenged, the Supreme Court will declare it constitutional under Article 1, Section 9, Clause 1, of the United States Constitution, even though it is clearly not. They will conveniently overlook the "certain commodity" aspect of the excise tax.

Where does that leave the Cause of Liberty? Well, the Federal Reserve system will be saved; the march to world government will continue on; the American public, believing that they will have tax relief will see no need to support the Patriot cause; and even many of the not so well informed Patriots will see no need to continue further support. This modern day effort for the Cause of Liberty started in the middle 1960s, and has taken forty-one years to get this far. The fellowship has been in existence for seventeen years. Do you really believe that we have another forty-one years to gather support again?

I will participate, if financially possible, and do my best in that participation, but I am continually praying to the Giver of all things for the time to the struggle, and the success of the Liberty Works Radio Network in educating the American public IN TIME.

Hopefully, this has answered the concerns of some of the Fellowship members.

John B. Kotmair, Jr., Fiduciary
