Detecting language using up to the first 30 seconds. Use `--language` to specify the language Detected language: English [00:00.000 --> 00:05.520] Welcome to the Vodcast. I conducted a poll on Twitter, MeWe, and Instagram giving people [00:05.520 --> 00:10.800] four choices of topic for my next presentation. The results weren't even close. The option [00:10.800 --> 00:18.520] is titled, The Tax Code Simplified Took a Full 50%. Is it possible to simplify one's [00:18.520 --> 00:28.360] understanding of the tax code? I'll give you the facts. You be the judge. [00:28.360 --> 00:41.980] The Dr. Reality Vodcast with Dave Champion. Let's start with this. As with all things [00:41.980 --> 00:46.880] related to a proper understanding of the income tax, you need to let go of, or at least place [00:46.880 --> 00:52.600] in abeyance, the current inaccurate understanding you have that's based on accepting as true [00:52.600 --> 00:58.000] the government's massive 60-year disinformation campaign. If you can't let go of that disinformation, [00:58.000 --> 01:02.520] then you'll never learn the truth because you'll have shut yourself off from it, and [01:02.520 --> 01:07.160] this presentation will be meaningless to you. In Income Tax Shattering the Mist, I discussed [01:07.160 --> 01:14.600] the difference between what the law calls general language versus specific language. [01:14.600 --> 01:18.240] That principle is important in every area of law, but it is critical when examining [01:18.240 --> 01:23.960] income tax law. Let me give you a non-law example. News articles are typically written [01:23.960 --> 01:29.480] with general language in the opening, followed later by specifics. An opening paragraph of [01:29.480 --> 01:31.560] a news article might read like this, quote, [01:31.560 --> 01:35.680] Police have arrested a person on several felony charges related to a recent home invasion [01:35.680 --> 01:40.440] in the city of Gibson. From that opening paragraph, we don't know which law enforcement agency [01:40.440 --> 01:45.120] made the arrest, when the arrest was made, the gender or name of the person arrested, [01:45.120 --> 01:48.920] whether there was a use of force when making the arrest, when the crime took place, what [01:48.920 --> 01:53.480] felony charges are involved, if there are other suspects involved, as well as exactly [01:53.480 --> 01:58.240] where in Gibson City the crime took place, whether there was more than one victim, the [01:58.240 --> 02:03.540] name of the victim or victims, and if anyone was injured during the commission of the crime. [02:03.540 --> 02:07.200] The article's second paragraph might read like this, [02:18.920 --> 02:45.920] Obviously, the second paragraph is where we get all the meaningful details. The difference [02:45.920 --> 02:50.800] between the general description in paragraph 1 and the specifics provided in paragraph [02:50.800 --> 02:56.480] 2 is also how laws are written. But unlike news articles where the details are provided [02:56.480 --> 03:01.180] in the paragraphs immediately following the first paragraph, in law the necessary detail [03:01.180 --> 03:05.520] to properly understand a statute may be found in other paragraphs, other sections, other [03:05.520 --> 03:11.560] subchapters or other chapters. In most areas of law, the specific language is logically [03:11.560 --> 03:18.280] placed nearby and there is little trouble finding it. Tax law is often exactly the opposite. [03:18.280 --> 03:23.120] And that's not a mistake. It's by design. The specific language that provides the detail [03:23.120 --> 03:29.580] and permits a person to understand the true application of the law will always be somewhere. [03:29.580 --> 03:34.500] But in many areas of income tax law, it's provided in a way not one in 10,000 people [03:34.500 --> 03:41.740] will be able to find it and connect the dots. And again, that's 100% intentional. [03:41.740 --> 03:47.180] Why would the government do that? Why would it create such a monumental challenge in order [03:47.180 --> 03:54.100] to correctly understand to whom the tax applies? That's easy. The Constitution and the Supreme [03:54.100 --> 03:58.940] Court cases interpreting the Constitution do not permit Congress to impose on the American [03:58.940 --> 04:04.180] people the kind of tax the American people falsely believe has been imposed on them. [04:04.180 --> 04:07.320] Part of the plan to keep the American people from understanding the government's narrative [04:07.320 --> 04:13.100] is 100% false, is to make it nearly impossible for ordinary citizens to learn the truth. [04:13.100 --> 04:19.140] So what's involved in learning the truth? When I began that journey, it looked like [04:19.140 --> 04:25.460] this. Locate thousands of items of information. Examine each and every one to determine if [04:25.460 --> 04:30.200] it's useful in piecing together the truth. And over a period of years, gain sufficient [04:30.200 --> 04:34.920] expertise in the vast terrain of the subject to be able to see it from the 35,000 foot [04:34.920 --> 04:40.200] level and discern where the significant pieces of information fit, much like assembling a [04:40.200 --> 04:45.120] puzzle. The difference is that when putting together a physical puzzle, you have a picture [04:45.120 --> 04:50.540] of what it's supposed to look like. The opposite is true when fitting the pieces of information [04:50.540 --> 04:56.040] together concerning the income tax. By opposite, I mean you have a completely false narrative [04:56.040 --> 05:00.600] as your reference point. You're literally constructing a puzzle with the only picture [05:00.600 --> 05:06.220] you have being something that's wildly inaccurate to what the finished project looks like. With [05:06.220 --> 05:11.660] no picture to guide a researcher from the government's disinformation to the truth, [05:11.660 --> 05:17.040] how does one come to a factual and accurate conclusion, an accurate picture, with absolute [05:17.040 --> 05:24.040] confidence of correctness? That answer is as simple as it is massively time consuming. [05:24.040 --> 05:28.000] Every step of the way, you have to objectively evaluate the totality of your evidence to [05:28.000 --> 05:32.380] ensure it's cohesive without any conflicts. If you think you have it right, but then you [05:32.380 --> 05:36.800] determine that item X is in conflict with item Y and they shouldn't be, you have to [05:36.800 --> 05:41.400] step back and reevaluate because an error was made somewhere in the process. You have [05:41.400 --> 05:45.480] to find your error and determine what it means for the line of reasoning you were working [05:45.480 --> 05:50.720] on. In some cases, you have to jettison months of work, go back to ground zero, and begin [05:50.720 --> 05:56.160] again, this time knowing where not to go. It took me several years to understand what [05:56.160 --> 06:01.680] the income tax really is and to whom it actually applies. I didn't feel comfortable writing [06:01.680 --> 06:07.120] income tax shattering the myths and sharing the truth with my countrymen until the 16 [06:07.120 --> 06:11.800] year more. The standard I set for myself before I could share the truth with the American [06:11.800 --> 06:17.000] people was that I could sit on a stage in front of my countrymen and the U.S. Attorney's [06:18.000 --> 06:23.000] could parade every attorney they have onto that stage, each one challenging me about [06:23.000 --> 06:28.200] the facts and law concerning the income tax, and I could give every single one of them [06:28.200 --> 06:34.340] the beat down. And that wasn't some whimsical notion. I have challenged virtually every [06:34.340 --> 06:39.000] gatekeeper of the government's false narrative to debate the matter. Here is what I said [06:39.000 --> 06:44.880] in a recent presentation discussing the problem of so-called experts being unwilling to defend [06:44.880 --> 06:50.960] their false narratives in public debate. I prefer not to speak of myself in these presentations, [06:50.960 --> 06:57.280] but in terms of so-called experts refusing to debate, I have a truckload of personal, [06:57.280 --> 07:01.880] relevant experience. As you may know, I'm the author of Income Tax Shattering the Myths, [07:01.880 --> 07:05.660] the best-selling book in America, revealing the truth that Congress has never imposed [07:05.660 --> 07:10.440] the income tax on ordinary, hardworking Americans. And the only reason most Americans believe [07:10.440 --> 07:15.520] that is they've been brainwashed by the U.S. government's massive 60-year disinformation [07:15.520 --> 07:20.960] campaign to convince you to believe a lie. As you can imagine, there are quite a few [07:20.960 --> 07:27.960] so-called tax experts in both government and the private sector who say I'm wrong. Great! [07:28.440 --> 07:33.120] Then let's debate and see who the public finds credible. Isn't that the way we're [07:33.120 --> 07:38.440] supposed to do it in a free country where knowledge is imperative for proper governance? [07:38.440 --> 07:42.900] Yet in two decades, not a single one of these so-called experts has agreed to meet me in [07:42.900 --> 07:46.760] public debate. To be clear, I'm not talking about some random accountant out of business [07:46.760 --> 07:51.660] down the street. I'm talking about people at the pinnacle of the income tax industry. [07:51.660 --> 07:56.380] I have invited in writing the following people to debate me concerning to whom the income [07:56.380 --> 08:03.120] tax actually applies. The U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, the Commissioner of the Internal [08:03.120 --> 08:08.760] Revenue Service, the Assistant Commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service, the Chief [08:08.760 --> 08:14.280] Counsel of the Internal Revenue Service, the National Director of the IRS's Criminal [08:14.280 --> 08:21.120] Investigation Division, the U.S. Attorney-in-Charge of the Department of Justice's Tax Division, [08:21.120 --> 08:25.440] David K. Johnson, who at the time of the invitation was the tax beat reporter for the New York [08:25.440 --> 08:31.960] Times and numerous CPAs who have written commentaries disparaging the truth of the income tax. [08:31.960 --> 08:38.520] In 20 years, not a single taker. Having reached the point where I could smoke any or all of [08:38.520 --> 08:42.920] those people in a debate concerning income tax law, I published Income Tax Shattering [08:42.920 --> 08:47.800] the Mist. But the point to which all that information leads is that the government has [08:47.800 --> 08:53.360] intentionally made it so damn few Americans will ever discover the truth. The government [08:53.360 --> 08:58.720] could end the scam by going public with the information I'm going to share with you today. [08:58.720 --> 09:03.600] The fact that the federal government is taking in trillions of dollars every year in individual [09:03.600 --> 09:09.400] income taxes, the vast majority to which it is not legally entitled, should confirm its [09:09.400 --> 09:15.020] actions are intentional. What I just described was my journey. But with the publication of [09:15.020 --> 09:20.220] Income Tax Shattering the Mist, no American need ever go down that road again. Seventeen [09:20.220 --> 09:24.600] years of research is distilled down to the incontrovertible facts concerning to whom [09:24.600 --> 09:29.400] the income tax applies and does not apply. I'm going to share some of that with you right now. [09:29.400 --> 09:36.840] The tax code, which is Title 26 of the United States Code, begins with Subtitle A entitled [09:36.840 --> 09:44.720] Income Taxes. Within Subtitle A, we find Chapters 1 through 4. Chapter 1 is entitled Normal Taxes [09:44.720 --> 09:52.200] and Assert Taxes. Chapter 2 is Taxes on Self-Employment Income. 3 is Withholding of Tax on Non-Resident [09:52.720 --> 09:59.320] and Foreign Corporations. And 4 is Taxes to Enforce Reporting on Certain Foreign Accounts. [09:59.320 --> 10:06.400] To be clear, these four chapters are the sum total of income tax law. I should point out [10:06.400 --> 10:13.200] that no tax has ever been enacted by Congress that doesn't include a collection mechanism. [10:13.200 --> 10:18.080] If you work for someone else, then you know what the collection mechanism is there, right? [10:19.080 --> 10:23.960] People who own their own businesses may say, there's no collection mechanism involved in the [10:23.960 --> 10:28.280] payments they receive. If you haven't bothered to read the law, you should consider there is a [10:28.280 --> 10:33.800] difference between your perception of what is occurring and what is in fact occurring. [10:33.800 --> 10:38.920] Allow me a brief explanation. People who sign forms W-9 and have the payments they receive [10:38.920 --> 10:46.200] reported on forms 1099 aren't withheld from only because the true legal meaning of the form W-9 [10:46.200 --> 10:53.800] and the resulting 1099 is the money hasn't reached the circumstance, the moment one withholding is [10:53.800 --> 10:59.640] required. April 15 is when the legal reality catches up with you. For today, I'll just say [10:59.640 --> 11:07.720] that since you don't owe any income tax, you might want to know what the W-9, 1099s, and form 1040 [11:07.720 --> 11:15.320] and 1120 actually mean in law. To whom do they really apply? Since the law says you don't owe [11:15.320 --> 11:21.000] any income tax on your domestic earnings, I suggest you should be very curious about why [11:21.000 --> 11:26.680] you're filling out W-9s, why people are reporting your non-taxable domestic income to the government, [11:26.680 --> 11:32.760] and why you're completing forms 1120 and or 1040. I endeavor to keep these presentations [11:32.760 --> 11:37.000] short enough that busy people can consume them. To that end today, I'm not going to get into the [11:37.000 --> 11:42.120] details of what forms W-9 and 1099 mean in law, but in the notes, I'll put the link to an earlier [11:42.120 --> 11:48.200] presentation where I lay out the law on that subject very clearly. However, because we're [11:48.200 --> 11:54.040] discussing withholding, which is the income taxes collection mechanism, I will mention that a form [11:54.040 --> 12:04.680] W-9 is a withholding certificate. You can find that in the regulations at 26 CFR 1.1471-1B148, [12:04.680 --> 12:10.040] which reads, quote, the term withholding certificate means a form W-8, form W-9, [12:10.040 --> 12:13.720] or any other certificate that under the Code of Regulation certifies or establishes [12:13.720 --> 12:20.120] the Chapter 4 status of a payee or beneficial owner, close quote. You know the W-9 was in there, [12:20.120 --> 12:25.800] right? So if you're submitting a withholding certificate to the people who pay you, [12:26.680 --> 12:31.560] you may want to educate yourself as to when the withholding is supposed to take place. [12:32.280 --> 12:37.400] Now let's return to the four chapters of Subtitle A. For those listening, not watching, [12:37.400 --> 12:41.640] as I say the four names, try to maintain their order in your head. Visualizing the order will [12:41.640 --> 12:47.240] help you grasp what I'm about to say. The chapters are normal taxes and surtaxes, [12:48.280 --> 12:54.360] tax on self-employment income, withholding tax on non-resident aliens and foreign corporations, [12:54.360 --> 12:57.880] and taxes to enforce reporting on certain foreign accounts. [12:58.760 --> 13:03.080] Chapters one and two are what I refer to in income tax shattering the myths as the [13:03.880 --> 13:09.160] rules of computation. What I mean by rules of computation is that if you want to know [13:09.880 --> 13:15.320] what rules apply when preparing a tax return, chapters one and two are where you'd look. [13:15.320 --> 13:18.600] The other thing that's notable about chapters one and two is they use legal terms [13:19.160 --> 13:25.000] absent the relevant factors that dictate upon whom those rules are to be applied. Remember the [13:25.000 --> 13:30.200] vagueness of paragraph one when we were discussing the news stories and the specifics were found [13:30.200 --> 13:36.440] further on? That is exactly what occurs in chapters one and two. In pivotal sections, [13:36.440 --> 13:41.880] definitions and context are missing that are absolutely essential to a proper understanding [13:41.880 --> 13:49.240] concerning to whom the rules apply. We now understand the first two chapters are the rules [13:49.240 --> 13:56.600] for preparing tax returns. Cool. So far, so good. However, as I mentioned, Congress has never enacted [13:56.600 --> 14:00.520] any tax without specifying the means by which it is to be collected, [14:00.520 --> 14:06.440] what I referred to earlier as the collection mechanism. Now, before I go further, it is also [14:06.440 --> 14:10.600] necessary for you to understand that when Congress specifies the means by which a tax is to be [14:10.600 --> 14:17.480] collected, it is only collecting the tax from the parties who owe it. As an example, there is a [14:17.480 --> 14:23.080] federal tax on alcohol distilleries. From whom is that tax collected? It's collected from the [14:23.080 --> 14:29.720] entities upon whom it is imposed, the distilleries. Another example is the 7.5% federal excise tax [14:29.720 --> 14:35.640] Congress imposes for commercial domestic air flights. From whom is that collected? From you [14:35.640 --> 14:41.560] at the time you purchased the ticket. Congress has enacted a tax on highway fuel. How does that [14:41.560 --> 14:46.040] collection mechanism work? When you buy fuel, you pay the tax, which is built into the price of the [14:46.040 --> 14:52.520] pump for simplicities. We could go on and on, but every law that imposes a tax also imposes a [14:52.520 --> 14:57.880] collection mechanism. That's true of income tax as it is for every other tax. Keeping in mind [14:57.880 --> 15:04.920] collection only occurs from the persons upon whom the tax has been imposed. We now go to Chapter 3, [15:04.920 --> 15:10.280] entitled Withholding Tax on Non-Resident Aliens and Foreign Corporations to See the Collection [15:10.280 --> 15:17.880] Mechanism. So, what you have is Congress laying out the rules of computation in Chapters 1 and 2, [15:17.960 --> 15:21.880] and then immediately following that with the collection provisions in [15:21.880 --> 15:27.000] Chapter 3. And, as I stated a moment ago, the tax is only collected from the persons upon whom [15:27.000 --> 15:33.160] it's been imposed, which is clearly stated as non-resident aliens and foreign corporations [15:33.160 --> 15:39.240] with U.S. source income. To be clear, there is a third class upon whom the income tax has been [15:39.240 --> 15:43.720] imposed, which is U.S. citizens residing abroad with foreign earned income. Since that facet of [15:43.720 --> 15:49.000] the income tax embraces only a tiny number of people, I rarely discuss it. Nevertheless, [15:49.000 --> 15:53.400] despite it affecting almost no one in comparison to the hundreds of millions of Americans being [15:53.400 --> 16:01.160] scammed by the government here at home, you should know that facet exists. What about Chapter 4? [16:01.800 --> 16:05.480] While Chapter 4 is some good reading to gain further understanding that the tax has only [16:05.480 --> 16:10.200] been imposed on non-resident aliens and foreign corporations with U.S. source income, it was only [16:10.200 --> 16:16.120] added to Subtitle A in 2010 to provide additional clarity in certain situations. By contrast, [16:16.120 --> 16:23.400] Chapters 1, 2, and 3 have existed, as we've discussed today, since the 1939 code was revamped [16:23.400 --> 16:31.640] into the 1954 code in 1954. If you're dismissing Chapter 3 as being the classes of persons upon [16:31.640 --> 16:37.640] whom the tax has been imposed, you're not alone in making that mistake. I made it. [16:38.200 --> 16:43.320] During the first several years I was researching tax law, I'd get to Chapter 3 and say to myself, [16:43.320 --> 16:48.120] I didn't need to take my time reading it because that had nothing to do with what I was researching. [16:50.040 --> 16:54.200] And what I was researching to find was a clear statement in the statutes concerning upon whom [16:54.200 --> 17:00.280] the tax had been imposed. I knew it wasn't in Chapters 1 or 2, but I repeatedly ignored Chapter [17:00.280 --> 17:05.560] 3 because of its title and the fact that I didn't yet understand upon whom Congress had imposed the [17:05.560 --> 17:10.840] tax. Back in those early days, had I taken the time to read Chapter 3, I would have found the [17:10.840 --> 17:15.560] clear statement of whom the tax applies to for which I had been searching. Of course, [17:16.200 --> 17:20.440] I eventually got there, but I just want you to know that you're not alone if you had that [17:20.440 --> 17:26.440] immediate reaction. Also, to let you know, your reaction is off base, as was mine. [17:27.000 --> 17:32.680] When one reads a lot of tax law, especially over a long historical timeline, in my case, [17:32.680 --> 17:37.960] having read tax statutes all the way back to 1862, you find that when a tax is being imposed, [17:37.960 --> 17:43.720] the legislation always follows the pattern we've discussed today. The mechanics of how the tax [17:43.720 --> 17:48.760] operates appears at the front of the legislation and the means of collecting the tax following [17:48.760 --> 17:54.840] thereafter. What I've shared with you today concerning Chapters 1, 2, and 3 is precisely [17:54.840 --> 18:00.120] how legislative draftsmen structure tax law. In other words, the only thing that may have caused [18:00.120 --> 18:05.480] you to have a knee-jerk reaction that it can't be true is your lack of familiarity with how tax law [18:05.480 --> 18:10.840] is written. And of course, that the truth cuts across the grain of your brainwashing, no disrespect [18:10.840 --> 18:16.200] intended, by more than 60 years of the U.S. government's disinformation campaign. In short, [18:17.000 --> 18:21.160] you bought the government's propaganda. And again, that's not criticism. I bought their [18:21.160 --> 18:25.800] bullshit during the first half of my life. But having bought the bullshit when you didn't know [18:25.800 --> 18:32.520] the truth is no excuse to act like it's all true when you know better, right? Let me give you an [18:32.520 --> 18:38.440] example of the lack of specificity that appears in Chapters 1 and 2, the rules of computation. [18:38.440 --> 18:43.720] I could offer virtually any section, but let's begin with Section 442, which is in Chapter 1 and [18:43.720 --> 18:51.880] addresses stock options. It starts with these words, quote, In general, Section 421A shall apply [18:51.880 --> 18:56.760] with respect to the transfer of a share of stock to an individual pursuant to his exercise [18:56.760 --> 19:03.400] of an incentive stock option, blah, blah, blah, blah. How about Section 151, addressing personal [19:03.400 --> 19:09.240] exemptions, quote, In the case of an individual, the exemptions provided by this section shall be [19:09.240 --> 19:17.480] allowed as deductions in computing taxable income. How about 165C, pertaining to limitation of losses, [19:17.480 --> 19:23.880] quote, In the case of an individual, the deduction under Section A shall be limited to blah, blah, [19:23.880 --> 19:31.160] blah. You notice these sections keep saying individual. Which individual? Who is that? [19:31.880 --> 19:37.960] Let's look at the instructions for a withholding agent to withhold, which is at Section 1441 and [19:37.960 --> 19:44.520] reads, quote, Except as otherwise provided in subsection C, all persons in whatever capacity [19:45.160 --> 19:51.160] having the control, receipt, custody, disposal, or payment of any of the items of income specified [19:51.160 --> 19:57.080] in subsection B to the extent that any such items constitutes gross income from sources within the [19:57.080 --> 20:08.360] United States of any non-resident alien individual or of any foreign partnership shall blah, blah, blah. [20:08.920 --> 20:14.920] Hmm, a non-resident alien. I know some of you are saying, oh, come on, Dave, [20:14.920 --> 20:23.640] what you're intimating is just silly. Is it now? Actually, no, it's not. It's defined as such a [20:23.640 --> 20:33.720] 26CFR1441C3 containing the definition of individual and states, individual means an alien or a [20:33.720 --> 20:38.840] non-resident alien. Now that we know the definition of individual as provided by the [20:38.840 --> 20:45.800] Secretary of the Treasury and his regulations, let's look at Treasury Decision 1928, also written [20:45.800 --> 20:53.720] by the Secretary. Treasury Decision 1928 specifies who is to use what returns. Pay careful attention [20:53.720 --> 21:03.080] to these instructions, quote, Form 1040 is to be used by individuals or their duly authorized agent [21:03.080 --> 21:09.720] in making the personal return of annual income. Quick comment, duly authorized agent means the [21:09.720 --> 21:15.160] alien's U.S. representative, such as a domestic investment firm, handling the alien's U.S. [21:15.160 --> 21:23.080] investments. Back to 1928, Form 1041 is to be used by fiduciaries in making returns of annual net [21:23.080 --> 21:30.120] income on behalf of their beneficiaries and as withholding agents. Another quick note, [21:30.120 --> 21:35.800] who is a withholding agent? As per 1441 of the code, the person who has control, receipt, [21:35.800 --> 21:39.960] custody, disposal, or payment of any items of income of any non-resident alien individual or [21:39.960 --> 21:45.400] foreign partnership. Back to the Treasury Decision, Form 1042 is the annual list return [21:45.400 --> 21:51.160] of withholding agents of taxes withheld by them on income other than that derived from corporate [21:51.160 --> 21:57.400] obligations. Form 1043 is a monthly list return of taxes withheld on foreign income by licensed [21:57.480 --> 22:03.800] banks or collecting agents. The list goes on and on, but you get the point. They're all about [22:03.800 --> 22:09.400] foreigners with U.S. source income. Let me put a finer point on this for you. If the number of [22:09.400 --> 22:23.080] the return begins with 10-4 followed by anything such as 1040, the 1040, 1041, the 1041, or 1042, [22:24.040 --> 22:30.760] and on and on, it pertains only to foreign persons with U.S. source income. You just heard it in a [22:30.760 --> 22:34.440] Treasury Decision, which is the official determination of the Secretary of the Treasury [22:34.440 --> 22:41.160] concerning which returns are to be used by whom and for what purpose. And I will add, as I often [22:41.160 --> 22:47.800] do, that there is no Treasury Decision or regulation or statute in the 110 years since the [22:47.800 --> 22:51.640] enactment of the income tax that requires an American citizen living and working in any of [22:51.640 --> 22:57.640] the 50 states earning his or her own domestic source income to file any IRS documents or pay [22:57.640 --> 23:05.320] any income tax. Zero. None. In other words, you've got thousands of pages of statutes, regs, [23:05.320 --> 23:10.920] Treasury decisions, Treasury orders, and internal documents saying the tax has been imposed on [23:10.920 --> 23:16.760] foreign persons with U.S. source income and U.S. citizens residing abroad with foreign earned income. [23:17.400 --> 23:24.200] And nothing, zero, that says it applies to Americans living and working in the 50 states [23:24.200 --> 23:29.960] earning his or her own domestic source income. Yet people continue to play the government's game. [23:32.680 --> 23:38.440] And then they tell you they're not sheep. Remember earlier I discussed how arduously [23:38.440 --> 23:42.760] time-consuming it is to review thousands of pieces of information over many years [23:43.400 --> 23:47.640] in order to finally fit the pieces of the puzzle together in a way that creates the proper and [23:47.640 --> 23:53.240] accurate picture of the income tax? The good news for you is that because I spent decades [23:53.240 --> 23:58.760] doing just that, you don't have to. If you're an American who wants to understand the workings [23:58.760 --> 24:02.520] of the largest financial crime in the world's history and how it has been committed by the [24:02.520 --> 24:06.280] United States government against the American people, in other words, if you're my kind of [24:06.280 --> 24:11.720] American, you have to read Income Tax Shattering the Mist. If you want to know the full picture, [24:11.720 --> 24:15.720] not just the small part I was able to share with you today, then grab a copy of Income Tax [24:15.720 --> 24:22.600] Shattering the Mist by going to drreality.news. I'll put the link down in the notes. While you're [24:22.600 --> 24:27.720] there, I want to encourage you to also pick up a copy of Body Science. Body Science is to the [24:27.720 --> 24:32.680] subject of human physiology what Income Tax Shattering the Mist is to income tax. It lays [24:32.680 --> 24:37.640] out government and industry disinformation that has resulted in the people of the United States [24:37.640 --> 24:45.720] being the most ill society in all of human history. It shows you why. It then lays out [24:45.720 --> 24:51.560] what real science tells us and then gives you a roadmap to becoming incredibly healthy. In other [24:51.560 --> 24:57.400] words, if you read Body Science and apply what you learned, you will never be part of the ever [24:57.400 --> 25:01.880] growing segment of this country that is diseased. So click on the link in the notes and pick up a [25:01.880 --> 25:06.680] copy of Income Tax Shattering the Mist and or Body Science. Either or both will be the most [25:06.680 --> 25:12.520] fascinating books you'll ever read. You have my word on that. Also, by purchasing Body Science [25:12.520 --> 25:17.320] and or Income Tax Shattering the Mist, you help me to continue to be here for you [25:17.320 --> 25:28.040] with these thought-provoking presentations. Thank you for being here. Take care.
