Lindy:
The Sixteenth Amendment:Â Â Â Â Â Â “The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.”
>NOTE – the US is foremost a location not a government, while the USA the Confederacy is foremost an agreement.
Chances are you are not doing anything in the US.
The first comma separates the power of Congress to lay and collect taxes on incomes from the sources of  that power. Congress can tax because the United States of America owns the United States and because the United States of America is a government, the Confederacy, and the Confederacy can make laws for the United States. The federal income tax is an excise tax on the performance of  a public office as all such offices are located in Washington, D.C.
Social Security taxes are taxes on the wages paid by employers in the United States. As the United States is owned by the United States of America, employees of  employers in the United States are required to match the tax paid by the employer. The United States of America, as owner of  the United States, can regulate everything in the United States.
An excise is a tax on a privilege. Doing anything in the United States is a privilege. The excise tax on employment in the United States is measured by the amount of the wages paid by the employer.

About Paul John Hansen
Paul John Hansen
-Foremost I love the Lord, His written Word, and the Elect Family of God.
-My income is primarily derived from rental properties, legal counsel fees, selling PowerPoint presentations.
-I am a serious student of territorial specific law, and constitutional limitations of the US and STATE Governments.
-I have been in court over 250 times.
-I have received numerous death threats that appear as to come from NEBRASKA STATE agents.
-I have been arrested an estimated 8 times. Always bogus false warrants, misdemeanor charges. (Mostly Municipal Housing Codes, or related acts.)
-I file no Federal Income Taxes (1040 Form) since the year 2001. (No filings in any form.)
-I pay no State income taxes.
-I do not pay STATE sales tax on major purchases.
-I pay no COUNTY property taxes with out a judicial challenge. ( I believe I have discovered a filing for record process that takes my land off the tax roles. )
-I currently use no State drivers license, carry no vehicle liability insurance, do not register my automobiles.
-I do not register to vote for any representatives.
-I am a 'free inhabitant' pursuant to Article 4 of The Articles of Confederation. (Not a US citizen.)
-I am subject to the Church jurisdiction, and a strong advocate of full ecclesiastical independence from the United States jurisdiction.
-I believe in full support of the perpetual Union as found in the Articles of Confederation.
-I believe that a free inhabitant has the lawful standing to choose to live independent of the constitutional corporate US governments, and its statutory courts in the vast majority of his daily life, and to be forced to do otherwise is slavery.
-I believe that most all US written law is constitutional, but most all of that same law is misapplied upon jurisdictions where it has no force and effect of law and the bar association has perfected a system of keeping the people from knowing its true application. Order my 5$ presentation 'Free Inhabitant One A', for the truth in limited jurisdiction of all US written law.
