Well it's funny you should ask that, because I think I just found the answer: Bitcoin. There was a thread recently made on it: www.abovetopsecret.com...
Now my question is... How do we break free? How do I go about not paying income tax?

Oh right, the founding fathers created the States, realized that fighting the revolutionary war had caused them to go into debt, and immediately started to tax liquor. I'd say we're being run correctly.

They could choose to either buy liquor or not, when you purchase it you decide to pay for the tax. If not enough people bought it, the free market would have kicked in and democracy would have changed the tax. Taxes on a limited level are necessary even if they are inconvenient, but now we are taxed pretty much just for being alive and it is not a choice.
Do I want to pay for the liquor and fund the government?
Do I want to live and fund the government?
Not exactly the same thing.

No income, no tax. If you don't like paying sales tax, leave America. Simple as that.

No, if I don't like the tax I remind everybody that I am an American. That gives me the right to tell the government to change the laws, and if you don't like freedom you can leave America. Simple as that.

I like freedom, but I realize I must pay taxes to support the government that provides me freedom.
