Government Obeys Law!

by Jim Kerr, SAPF staff paralegal
One of our members, Mr. Nicholas T., obtained a position with the United States Census Bureau. He began working for them on April 23, 2000, and instead of supplying them with a signed Form W-4 to authorize withholding from his pay, he gave them a Statement of Citizenship, pursuant to Title 26 Code of Federal Regulations § 1.1441-5.

The purpose of the Statement of Citizenship of course, is to indemnify an employer in the event that he unwittingly hired a non-resident alien, and neglected to withhold income tax. When a withholding agent has the statement of citizenship and sends a copy to the Philadelphia international office of the IRS, Subtitle A income taxes cannot become at issue for him.


For a citizen of one of the 50 states of the Union engaged in an occupation of common right (an occupation that is not a privileged occupation) the only other tax that could apply, would be Subtitle C: employment taxes; these taxes are not imposed, but rather, are voluntary. It is due to the fact that it is not imposed, that a Form W-4 is required so as to authorize employer withholding from the wages of an employee.


However, be it due to fraud or mistake, the government withheld employment taxes from Mr. T.'s pay, even though they lacked the lawful authority to do so. Remember, without a valid W-4 Voluntary Withholding Allowance Certificate, no such authority to withhold from Mr. T. can exist.


Mr. T. took exception to this, so he wrote a letter to the paymaster to discontinue this unlawful practice, and to demand that the unlawfully withheld monies be returned.


The result was that, starting with his third paycheck, withholding stopped. Mr. T. was very pleased about this; it was nice to see that the government would obey the law in this regard. However, they neglected to return the money that was unlawfully withheld.


So, Mr. T. wrote a few more letters demanding that the withheld money be returned.


The government wasn't budging on this, but Mr. T. was rather tenacious! He persisted, and this persistence paid off.


One day, when Mr. T. went out to check his mailbox, he was very pleased to find a check dated July 26, 2000 from the Treasury Department in compensation for the money they took. Though this check was not for the full amount, the remaining balance was added his last paycheck. He was reimbursed in full!

The IRS - The American Politburo's Personal KGB
Plundering and Blundering: The IRS from chapter 3 of James Bovards book: "Feeling Your Pain"

On July 30, 1996, while reluctantly signing a bill to provide meager additional protections to taxpayers, President Bill Clinton proclaimed: "We say to America’s taxpayers, when you deal with the IRS, you also have privileges and we respect them. You have protection and we will help provide it. You have rights and we will shield them."

There may have been a few Americans who actually believed the president’s assertions. However, since Clinton took office, the IRS has seized over 12 million bank accounts, put liens on over 9 million people’s homes and land, directly confiscated more than 100,000 people’s houses, cars, or property, and imposed over 100 million penalties on people for allegedly not paying sufficient taxes, paying taxes late, et cetera. The IRS has also audited roughly 15 million American families and businesses--and the audit process (at least through 1998) was intentionally designed to pressure people to pay more taxes than they actually owed. The IRS has collected tens of billions of dollars in wrongful penalties and taxes not owed since 1993.

Journalists press case against IRS
Klayman, Farah charge government hiding documents, lying -- By Stephan Archer


Lawyers representing the Western Journalism Center plan to file motion to have the Internal Revenue Service and the Department of Justice held in criminal contempt for failing to produce documents connected to an audit of the group and requested under the Freedom of Information Act.
"Based on a pattern of misconduct in this lawsuit, we are convinced that the IRS continues to hide documents," said Judicial Watch's Larry Klayman.


Klayman is referring to the $10 million action he filed against the Internal Revenue Service on behalf of the Western Journalism Center, founded by Joseph Farah, editor of WorldNetDaily.com. Farah and Klayman initiated the suit after a suspicious 1996 audit nearly forced the center to close its doors.

"I find it very suspicious," said Katherine Prudhomme, who subjected Mr. Gore to several long, uncomfortable minutes of questioning about the Broaddrick case in December.

INFORMATION:
Securing Social Security
- Reprinted with Permission
- Article by Dr. Debra Monde
Candidate for US Congress - TX


Once again, the politicians are seeking your vote promising to "save" social security. Saving a system that predicts bankruptcy every 20 years seems insane. Instead we need to make it "secure" for those who are dependent upon it now. In the meantime, we must take our retirement future out of the hands of the politicians.
Social Security is inherently unsound for the simple reason that it's a political program run by politicians for their re-election. Because of this, it can never work and it will never be truly solvent. The only answer is to take our money completely out of the hands of our elected officials.


Changing the current system


If we are to make progress in changing the present system then we must take note that there is no trust fund! There is no retirement account in Washington that has anyone's name on it. This is why most of those under age 50 do not expect to see a return on their "investment".


An example that opened my eyes came from a 46-year-old friend who had recently received his Social Security Earnings Benefit Statement. It seems that since he began working in 1969, he and his employer have paid $82,000 into the Social Security System.


My friend is not a wealthy man. His average income over those years was less than $23,000. What he showed me was that if he had invested that money in a mutual fund of nominal performance, he would have over a quarter million dollars today! He further explained to me that if he never contributed another dollar, his retirement investment would be worth $1.68 million when he reached the age of 67.


He is expected to pay an additional $110,000 into Social Security before he reaches retirement. If this had been privately invested, his retirement account would have been worth $3.55 million at age 67.


This vast sum would provide a monthly income in retirement of $20,000 for the rest of his life, and still leaves the $3.5 million in principal for his children to inherit. The measly $1,550 that social security promises him pales in comparison. [These numbers can be found on the Heritage Foundation's Social Security Calculator
http://www.heritage.org/socialsecurity/ Just put in ID code JJNMRI when you get to their site and you will see his actual earnings.]

Sounds too good to be true? Well that's what politicians are counting on - keeping you ignorant and keeping themselves in office.


Our Children's Future


Too many people don't recognize the value of compound interest. Did you know that $1,000 deposited into a baby's stock account on their first birthday would be worth $256,000 on their 65th birthday? Don't believe it? Go ask any banker or stockbroker.


So, who has $1,000 to put into a baby's account? Well, if that baby's parents are both at minimum wage jobs, they paid $1,670 into social security each year of their child's life, with the employer paying an equal amount in their name.


You can see it's not about money, but about the future. It is the difference between living your life to the fullest, or living in debtor's prison. Social Security is a mistake of our past. Wishing to maintain this system for our children and grandchildren borders on child abuse.


Securing Social Security


Many of us have parents and grandparents who depend on Social Security for their daily bread. There is a way to provide for them without condemning our future generations to horrific tax rates. We must shrink government and create a positive cash balance. When this is done, the government can purchase private annuities equal to the value already paid by each citizen. This annuity will then belong to each individual.


In reducing the size and scope of the federal government, the first program to go is the retirement program for federal politicians. Presently they can draw up their full pay, without ever having paid into the system, taking millions of dollars of our tax money for the rest of their lives. These are the people who lied to us all these years. This nonsense must stop!


We must return the social security tax money to the people immediately. All Americans should be required to begin investing these monies into their own retirement accounts.


None of this will happen, of course, until we choose to elect officials who will bring back smaller government and create a positive balance in the budget. That is when Americans will have a secure retirement system.
