The reports in the old mass media about Irwin Schiff and Larken Rose are old, moldy government press  releases rehashed to satisfy the calendar and the government that pays their  wages. They are as inaccurate as their reports of Iraqi troop movements on the Saudi border before the illegal invasion. The old mass media would be burning  witches today if government gave them the nod.

Their misinformation cannot be allowed to stand uncorrected.

Irwin Schiff's goal is not to prove that the federal personal income tax law is invalid or unconstitutional.  He learned that the law as written is not being enforced.

Larken Rose also learned that the law as written is not being enforced, although his focus is on a different section of Title 16.

Neither Irwin Schiff nor Larken Rose ever claimed that the income tax is unconstitutional. No one in the tax honesty movement is selling a "secret scheme to avoid paying income taxes." The information they acquired from years of study is available to the general public at no cost. It's all part of the public record, in federal statues, federal regulations, Supreme Court decisions, and the US Constitution. The relevant parts are available in Irwin's books and Larken's reports and videos at prices that rewards them appropriately for the money, time, effort, and talents applied to their research, compilations, and publications. All of their transactions with the general public have been
voluntary and honest.

It's important to note that no member of the federal government has ever disputed the specific claims made by Irwin Schiff, Larken Rose, Bob Schulz, Dave Champion, Ken Evans,  Sherry Peel Jackson (ex-IRS agent), Joe Banister (ex-IRS CID officer), or John Turner (ex-IRS agent), to name but a few of the brave souls in the tax honesty movement. On the contrary: The federal government has remained silent and vindictive, preferring instead to evade questions, terrorize and prosecute innocent people, suppress evidence, and circumvent the law. This is not a matter of opinion; the government's behavior is well-documented. Now it's reference material.
